It’s hard to believe, but the Class of 2026 is already gearing up for one of the most exciting milestones of their high school experience—senior photoshoots! This is one of our favorite times of the year. Every session is a celebration of style, confidence, and personality. We’re always looking ahead to what’s new and exciting, and we’re already seeing trends that are shaping how seniors want to be photographed in 2025.
If you’re a soon-to-be senior or a parent helping plan the perfect photoshoot, now is the time to start dreaming and booking. These are the trends we’re loving—and we can’t wait to bring them to life for the Class of 2026.
Editorial-Inspired Styling
We’re seeing more seniors lean into editorial-inspired looks, and we’re all for it. These photoshoots feel like something straight out of a fashion magazine—bold, creative, and full of personality. Whether it’s layering interesting textures, trying a monochromatic outfit, or adding movement through fabric or accessories, this style is all about expressing yourself through fashion.
We’re happy to help you brainstorm outfit ideas that work beautifully on camera. These editorial-style photoshoots create portraits that feel elevated, expressive, and so uniquely you.
Dreamy Outdoor Locations, Right Here at Our Studio
Nature-inspired portraits are still going strong, but with a major upgrade—our private outdoor portrait park. It’s located right on our property, which means no public spaces, no interruptions, and no surprises. No strangers, no competing photographers, and no last-minute location changes.
Even better? You’ll have access to your own climate-controlled dressing room to easily change outfits throughout your photoshoot. It’s heated in the winter and air-conditioned in the summer, so you're always comfortable. No changing behind trees or using a public restroom. Just a peaceful, beautiful space that’s all yours.
Personal Storytelling Through Props and Themes
More seniors are incorporating meaningful props into their photoshoots—and we’re loving it. From guitars to sports gear, from books to vintage cars, these personal touches help tell your story and add depth to your portraits.
We encourage every senior to bring something that reflects who they are. Whether you're a musician, athlete, gamer, or bookworm, we’ll help you incorporate your interests in a way that feels natural and genuine. It’s those small details that turn a great photo into something unforgettable.
Moody and Cinematic Vibes
Alongside the dreamy, sunlit portraits we all love, there’s a growing trend toward moody and cinematic imagery. These portraits feature dramatic lighting, deep shadows, and rich, atmospheric tones. They feel like they belong in a movie—and they’re absolutely stunning.
We’ll work with you to create the right mood, from wardrobe to posing to the perfect backdrop within our portrait park. If you want your portraits to feel emotional, bold, and a little bit mysterious, this style might be perfect for you.
Candid Moments and Movement
There’s something magical about movement in a photo. Whether it’s a spontaneous laugh, a twirl of your dress, or a carefree walk through tall grass, we love capturing those unscripted moments. They bring energy and authenticity to your photoshoot and give you portraits that feel truly alive.
We guide you through poses that feel relaxed and natural so you never feel stiff or unsure. Those in-between moments often become the most-loved images from the entire day.
