Senior Pictures in Reno with Ezell Images
We can't believe it's almost that time! As the school year rapidly approaches, there's a buzz in the air, a mix of excitement and anticipation. For seniors, this time marks a pretty significant milestone...this is it! Your final year of high school! But...there's so much to do! Capturing this moment with senior pictures is of course a big tradition, but did you know choosing the right time to schedule your session can make all the difference? August and September are perfect for many reasons. Let's dive into why these months are ideal for senior pictures and how booking now can ensure you get the most out of your session.
One of the most important reasons to schedule your senior pictures in August or September is to ensure you get on our calendar before it fills up. Senior picture season is a busy time for photographers, and slots can fill up quickly. By booking now, you can avoid the stress of trying to find a last-minute appointment and missing school deadlines. This early planning guarantees you'll have your photos ready for yearbook submissions and graduation announcements.
August and September offer some of the most beautiful weather and scenery for senior pictures. The intense summer heat begins to wane, making outdoor sessions more comfortable and enjoyable. Winter and Spring in Reno and Lake Tahoe can be very unpredictable weather making it harder to schedule if you wait until the end of the school year. Plus, the changing seasons of early Fall bring a stunning array of backgrounds, from lush green landscapes to the first hints of autumn colors. It gives you incredible flexibility for the backdrops that mean most to YOU.
Come October and November, photographers are often swamped with families eager to get holiday card photos taken. By scheduling your senior pictures in August or September, you'll avoid this busy period and have more flexibility in choosing the best date and time for your session. This proactive approach not only ensures better weather but also gives you priority in booking, allowing you to pick from more available weekends and evenings. The best part? We also include family photos in our senior portrait sessions, so you only have to get dressed up once!
The late summer and early fall months offer a fantastic variety of outdoor options for your senior pictures. The weather is still warm enough for water-based activities like boating, water-skiing, and diving, perfect for showcasing your adventurous spirit or the sports you've poured your heart into during your time in high school. At the same time, it's cool enough for more fall-inspired activities like football, horseback riding, and cheerleading. Whether you're highlighting a hobby, sport, or passion, this time of year provides endless possibilities for unique and personalized senior photos.
Reno's August and September weather brings a break from the scorching summer temperatures, making it easier to experiment with your wardrobe. During our planning meeting, we can curate a mix of outfits—short sleeves, long sleeves, dresses, layers, and more. This flexibility allows us to capture a variety of looks, ensuring you get the most value out of your session. Whether you want a casual vibe or a more sophisticated look, the milder temperatures make it possible to achieve a range of styles without overheating or feeling uncomfortable.
