LOCAL VOICE
Senior photos are a big deal! This is probably the last major
photoshoot your child will have before their wedding day.
We asked Amber Allen, a local photographer, for some
tips to make the most of this iconic photoshoot.
1- Plan Your Outfits Ahead of Time
Choose 2–3 outfits that reflect your style—something casual, something dressy,
and maybe one that highlights your hobbies or school spirit. Avoid busy patterns,
neon colors, and branding.
2- Think About Location
Amber Allen
Do you love nature? The city? A place that means something to you? Talk with
your photographer about locations that match your style—you’ll feel more
comfortable and connected in a spot that feels like “you.”
3- Consider Professional Hair & Makeup
Amber Allen is
the heart behind
Echo Images
Photography!
She has 20 years
of experience
specializing in
creating bright,
natural, personalityfilled
portraits that
capture milestones
- especially senior
year, with a candid
and genuine,
yet traditional
approach. The
magical result...
images that feel
like you and make
this once-in-alifetime
season
unforgettable!
Treat yourself! Professional makeup artists know how to enhance your natural
beauty while making sure your features pop on camera (and stay put in the
heat or wind!). You’ll feel extra confident—and that glow shows in every shot.
4- Don’t Stress About Posing
Whether offering detailed posing suggestions, or giving prompts sure to elicit
reaction or emotion, your photographer will guide you every step of the way!
Focus on having fun, and let your real personality shine through. The best photos
happen when you’re relaxed and just being yourself.
5- Bring the Extras
Pack the essentials: hairbrush or comb, makeup touch-up items, water, lip balm,
and any props you may want (letterman jacket, instrument, sports gear, etc...).
A friend or parent to help out and hype you up never hurts, either!
6- Ask Anything—Your Photographer is Here to Help!
Struggling to make a decision on what to wear? Worried about the weather?
Need help choosing accessories or shoes? Don’t be shy—reach out! Your
photographer wants you to feel excited and prepared, and is happy to answer
any questions you have—they may even offer a consultation to walk through
everything so you feel confident and ready to truly shine on your session day.
