Oconee County High School Graduation Portraits

Graduation portraits are always so much fun to create, but also meaningful for both the Senior and the parents. Most Seniors think of this portrait session for such a long time – planning their outfits, hair and makeup along with selecting the location. They want to look their best, show off their personality and share with all their friends after the fact! The experience can sometimes be a bit emotional for parents as they think of how much their child has grown and how they will be leaving the nest in a few short months. It is also a very proud moment though too. These images will grace the family home’s wall for years to come, so you want something timeless and natural, but is a true reflection of this time. This is something I always keep in mind for my clients and help guide them through the process.

We held the session in this beauty’s neighborhood, which happens to be mine as well! In fact, you will notice these exact settings in a lot of the portraits I take. She wanted something outdoors to compliment her personality and her beauty. This worked out perfectly – especially with that beautiful glow you get before sunset!

I love both outfits this Senior chose for her graduation portraits. The dress really complimented the colors offered by Mother Nature while giving a subtle pop of color to the final images. The boots and jewelry showed off her style a bit further. The jeans with the silk top and sweater is a perfect example of how to use neutrals in your wardrobe for graduation portraits. Love the texture of the sweater and the detailing around the collar of the shirt. It kept things natural and casual for the setting, but it was dressed up just enough, fitting for portraits. Perfect example of what to wear for senior photos.

Mom loved the images of her daughter laughing as she said that is exactly how her daughter is! She really does have a great smile and her face just lights up with her laugh and sparkling eyes. Quite contagious!

When trying to figure out when to do your newborn portrait session, there are a few things to consider. 

If you would like those super curled up images of your baby and images where your infant is super small, then I would recommend booking your newborn session during the first two weeks of life. This is also usually the time before colic and baby acne would arrive, if that ends up being a thing for your sweet baby.

Now, if you would like some wide eyed shots as well as those sleepy images then you may want to wait a bit. Some parents prefer to do their newborn portraits around six weeks. At this age, infants don't curl up quite as tight when they sleep, but their sleep details are still adorable. Most moms mention that they seem to be a bit into a routine at this point, which can help predict baby's mood, sleep and eating patterns. 

Regardless on your baby's age, I am here to document those precious moments. If you are still unsure when to book, don't hesitate to reach out. I am happy to talk through options with you.

Cannot believe that my daughter graduates high school in two months. Does not seem possible. I could not be prouder of this girl of mine. She is such a beautiful soul, smart, kind, thoughtful, hard working, dedicated and funny to boot. 

My goals for the first six months of the year look a bit different, but at the same time, really aren't. I always have goals that include my daughter, but there is certainly more emphasis on things this year with her. I want to go on a mother/daughter trip, a family trip, visit more colleges, plan her graduation party, do some more photo sessions that she has requested, design save the date and graduation announcements, gather pictures for a slideshow for her graduation party, start compiling dorm room items and be present as much as possible.

Still seems like yesterday I was just meeting her for the first time at the hospital and just like that....my baby girl will be moving on to start the next chapter of her life.

A benefit of photographing a baby when they are a bit older is that you can get these precious wide eyed images as well as more varied facial expressions. I mean….you cannot get over those beautiful eyes and those stunning eyelashes.
