Top Reasons to Hire Jamie Solorio and Her Team

This shoot was a lot of fun and I really love getting the opportunity to work with dancers and musicians, as herself. She was a dancer at U-Prep school in Redding CA. This editorial style senior shoot took place in my home studio with my assistant Aleesha, using Lily’s dance inspired mood board with gothic like dark moody lighting.

8 Reasons to Book a Senior Session with Me

  • Experience: Senior sessions are all about telling your senior story in a creative way. The purpose is to focus on having fun while shooting and creating memories of who you are during your last year of high school as a senior to look back on for years to come.

  • Off-Camera Flash and Natural Light Options: I personally love using both off-camera flash during my senior sessions. Off-camera flash means that we not only use the beautiful light around us that is everywhere, but we also bring our own lights to create a more dramatic looking, almost editorial image. Of course, I still love using just natural light, meaning shooting with only the sun and possibly a reflector for a very dreamy senior portrait look.

  • Curate your Dream Shoot: I am totally up for your ideas with regard to lighting, posing, location, and styling. If you create a mood board, like Lily did in the above link and have ideas for the shoot, I can create what you are dreaming up.

  • Shoot Extras: For my seniors, I love to create a little short video of our time together. It is always fun to look back on a snip-it of the shoot day and to share with the ones you love most. I also shoot my senior sessions with an assistant, this way you not only have one person working hard to create the best imagery possible, you have a second set of eyes checking to make sure everything is perfect. I also collaborate with Rajneesh owner of RJ Retouch, a published fashion editorial retoucher for the highest professional senior portrait retouching possible.

  • Bragging Rights: You can be the trend-setter in your senior class. Your stunning senior imagery possibly inspire your friends to create their own unique shoots. The sooner you book a session, the sooner your photos will be posted online for everyone to see.

  • Enjoying your Pictures: I have many great products that are fun to hang in your room, pass out to friends old school style and share with your family to enjoy who you are during your final year in high school. Want to check out the lab I use and products available to you.

  • Limited Booking Space: I take a limited amount of seniors each year, since I don’t want to work more…to be honest! Currently, I am a little obsessed about climate change and would rather learn how not to be such a consumer and fend for myself. However, I am finding this is more difficult that I had imagined. Hence, limited sessions! 🙂

  • Destination opportunities: I do not set a limit on locations or outfits, we will shoot anywhere you want in your time allotment. If you are wanting to schedule something extra special like a session in a big city (San Francisco!) or a nearby mountain., I am ready!
