Designer – $99
These studio sessions are about creativity! Bring your music, sports gear, instruments, awards, books… bring the things that tell your story! Bring several outfits. Show the world what you love!
We’ll mix a little of your imagination with our creativity, and you’ll have a great time creating as many looks as possible in the time we have!
The Designer gives you up to an hour to change backgrounds and outfits. Usually, you’ll have at least three different looks from which to select, and includes everything already included in the Traditional.
Check these Galleries to see samples of the variety offered in both the Designer and Classic sessions. You can be photographed on both White Backgrounds and Darker Backgrounds. Are you involved in Sports, Dance & The Arts, Music, or Hobbies? Bring along your uniforms, instruments, and gear, as well as uniforms and accessories! Do you have Letter Jackets? Do you like Fashion? Bring along the clothes that tell your story. Do you like Black & White or Closeups? Do you like to do somethings Just for Fun? All of these can become part of your senior session.
