Santa Rosa Senior Session

There is nothing more exciting than the last year of high school. I had my own senior this year so all the senior sessions I did were full of even more anticipation and excitement. I knew all the feeling the moms were going though, and how excited the young adults were to complete their schooling and cast off into whatever new adventure awaits!

For this senior photo shoot we went to Riverfront Park in Windsor. When choosing a location for a photo session I really like to find spots that have a wide variety of terrain. This is particularly important when you have multiple outfits and looks, like for a senior girl or a personal branding shoot. Riverfront Park has a nice lake, a redwood grove, and it is surrounded by vineyards. It really gives you all the backdrops that Sonoma County is known for.

The best time to take senior photos is the summer before senior year. Once the school year has started, seniors can be very overwhelmed. Often senior classes are hard and the college application process can be pretty stressful. If you missed the summer before senior year, another option is the winter after most applications have been submitted. This will depend a lot on the weather, but we can have gorgeous winter days. It is important to check with you high school yearbook committee to see what the deadline is if you plan to submit your portrait to the yearbook.
