Senior Portraits

Having your senior portraits created is a very personal experience. Good portraits are much more than just photographs. They capture more than what you look like on the outside?hey reflect your inner feelings and personality. That? what you will get at Photographic Artistry. There are several types of sessions to choose from.

We are now 100% digital. With digital photography, you will see your proofs on our website instead of "paper proofs." Digital photography makes many special services easier to access and the whole process is now faster.

How things work:

1. After your photo session is done, we plug the camera into a TV and you view the images immediately. You tell us what you want edited out at that time.
2. Within two working days, you images will be on our website. We want the High School students to pick a single one word password for security reasons.
3. Go to www.photographicartistry.net and click on the cute bear with the sign at the bottom of the home page.
4. This will open a new window. Click on your name.
5. Fill out the information and accept the copyright information.
6. Click on any image you want to see a larger version.
7. Write down the numbers of your favorite images.

Seniors, we will need to know what you want for the yearbook. The image needs to be vertical and close to being a headshot.

The Classic Session

This is the session we start with when doing any High School Senior. It takes about an hour to do, it includes 3 changes of clothing, and at least 10 photos will be taken. This session includes both traditional senior portraits, (4) and contemporary portraits. The Standard Session is $55.00.

The Outdoor Session

This session is usually done just outside our studio or just across the street in Hicks Park. We have many wonderful locations for outdoor portraits right around the studio. The outdoor session will take approximately one hour, there will be two clothing changes and at least 5 poses will be taken. Outdoor sessions are done in the morning at 8:30 A.M., or in the afternoon around 4 P.M., when the light is softening. The Outdoor Session is $30.00 + tax.

The White Room

This very contemporary session is usually done with a white background that can be used for full-length portraits. There is also a window seat that is very nice. Mostly it is girls who want the White Room Session, which will take approximately one hour with 2 clothing changes and at least 5 poses. The White Room Session is $ 30.00 + tax.

The Beach Session

This session is done at Lake Michigan, usually at Holland State Park. The Holland site is a very safe and family oriented beach. Also, the Holland Lighthouse is one of the most unique in the nation. We leave the studio at 6 P.M. on the scheduled beach dates, and start shooting when the light is soft enough. Evening light is the best for beach pictures.

Regular Specials with Senior Portraits

Two for one Special If 2 seniors students are at the studio at the same time for their photo session, we will only charge for one photo session. Each senior will pay 1/2 price.
 
Free Family Portrait Session The family of any senior we photograph is eligible for a family session free. Regular price is $20.00 per person, with a maximum of $160.00. This is good for what we call an Extended Family, which can be 3 or 4 generations. See the section on the Family Portrait Session. Everything in the regular session applies to a Family Session with a senior. The free session will apply up till the senior graduates. Note: If a senior session and the free family session are close together in time, you will be able to order from both sessions at the same time and usually save a lot of money.
