The Woodlands Senior Photographer Boys Mini Session

When it comes to senior boys, they don’t want the same large photoshoot with multiple outfit over several hours like the girls do.  Moms want some great shots of their sons before they head out to college, classic portraits for yearbooks and keepsakes. The best compromise is to book one of my mini sessions for senior boys! It’s short and fast, at just one hour, which the guys appreciate. But it still leaves enough time for a couple outfit changes, and to get some amazing portraits that families will love and cherish. Everybody wins! Read more about Senior Minis for Boys here.

Guitar with a Side of Country – Senior Photographer the Woodlands

Personalize your senior portraits by bringing props or personal items that tell a story about you! For your senior pictures, stand out from the rest by showing your talents, your abilities, or your interests. Bring along a musical instrument, your letterman jacket, sports equipment, your favourite book or even your truck – all these things help make your senior portrait session more about you and less about photographing poses. Senior portraits are all about you and telling your story in pictures, so let’s craft a session that lets you tell others what you’re all about.

Rooftop Senior Session the Woodlands Photographer

We had a gorgeous day for this senior’s pictures, especially at the end of the evening when we ended up on the rooftop with a view of the Woodlands skyline. Senior boys are fun to shoot, and they always have so much personality. Moms always worry their sons aren’t too willing for the photoshoot, but they always end up with fantastic photos and have a great time, even suggesting poses!

You deserve to have great photos of senior year, and mom deserves to have keepsake photos before the kids go off to college – my senior mini sessions for boys are perfect for that.  Click here to read more about senior mini sessions for boys in the Spring, Conroe, Woodlands Klein, and Cypress districts.

The Woodlands High School Photographer Senior Boys

Sessions for senior boys is really one of my fave types of shoots – the guys are always laid back  and willing to please their mamas to get some great shots to remember senior year. The hour flies by, and they cooperate so well when asked to do simple poses. And posing for seniors boys is SO easy they won’t feel like they’re being posed at all. There are some go-to poses that I always use for my senior guys that are guaranteed to please both the seniors and the parents. We aim for natural, relaxed and easy going to capture their natural charm.

Hunter was no exception! A really nice guy who patiently put up with my camera for an hour with a smile and no complaints. Thanks for the great session!

Outdoor Senior Portraits The Woodlands

This beautiful senior had a fantastic sunny day for her senior portraits in the Woodlands. We started out with an urban set, then moved to the park for the second half of her session to capture the gorgeous warm golden light near sunset. I love the amazing colour that came through for her senior pictures!

Gorgeous Senior Session The Woodlands

This amazing girl was so easy to photograph with her  glowing skin and easy smile! A Woodlands High senior on her way to university next year, she brought along some of the most photogenic colours as well – the deep rich burgundy and light blue are very camera friendly. And of course, her letterman jacket makes the perfect addition to remember her high school days forever! Bring yours along for your senior photoshoot!

This is the first part of her three hour senior session, stay tuned for more!

The Musician Senior Photographer The Woodlands

Time flies, and I’m seeing the younger siblings of my past senior clients coming in for their turn! This young man is the younger brother of one of my seniors from a previous graduating class from the Klein area, you can see big brother’s senior pictures here. For his turn, this class of 2017 senior brought his own props along too – his guitar! I always have fun taking senior pictures that showcase a hobby or skill, it makes the portraits so much more personal and representative! I’m so pleased I could meet this family and the boys have a matching set of great portraits for their wall canvas collage. And mom now has some great wall art!

Pre-Teen Photography – The Woodlands Tween Photographer

Parents know that  one of the most fascinating stages of our children’s lives are when they are at that age in-between childhood and adulthood – the Tween Years. Still full of laughter and innocence of childhood, but growing into their own as they inch towards becoming young adults. They will still hug and hold your hand in public. They’re learning to have opinions on everything, and are starting to have real in depth conversations about the world around them. This stage of awareness is a beautiful time for us as parents emotionally as we watch their bodies and faces change so swiftly ….. so why  is this stage of life the *least photographed stage* for our children? 

Don’t settle for just the school photo as the defining portrait of your pre-teen. Book a PRE-TEEN SESSION with Shannon Stroubakis to beautifully capture this most amazing, most fleeting time in your child’s life. You’ll receive amazing portraits of your pre-teen without fakes smiles and posing. Real, authentic portraits. True smiles and laughter. And it’s not just a portrait session – it’s an afternoon out together, making memories you’ll have forever. Click here to learn more about Pre-Teen Sessions and email for complete information.

Bright and Colourful Senior Session – The Woodlands Photographer

This sweet senior had a perfect day for her senior session in the Woodlands and Spring — sun soaked, light breeze, perfect temperature. Her outfit choices are worth noting here – notice how gorgeous that bright purple colour looks? How it makes the image pop so much more, and adds interest? Adding a pop of colour to your senior session makes a huge difference in the final image!  She also matched her outfits to the various backdrops very well. For the sunny, natural setting she wore neutrals and soft colours, against the more urban backdrops she had black accessories, dark pants and boots. Pulling it all together like this makes for a successful senior session!

This Klein senior chose two adjacent locations for a little variety — the urban streets and the greenery and wood of a more natural location. With the gorgeous weather we had, it was perfect for walking around looking for fun little spots to shoot!

Senior and Yearbook Portraits – The Woodlands Senior Photographer

I met this handsome, dapper young man for his senior portraits to use for the yearbook page celebrating senior year, and I was so impressed with his sense of style and polished look! We had many people around the park compliment him on how handsome and fashionable he looked. It’s always nice to see a young man in a suit, all put together and looking sharp!

With my senior boys, we arrange a short shoot that gives you the fabulous images you want to show off to your friends, and the important portraits your family wants to remember your senior year. You also receive a hard cover spiral bound proofing album with your entire gallery of images in printed form.  See more information about Sessions for Senior Boys in the Woodlands, Conroe, and Spring TX by clicking here.

The Woodlands Senior Photographer – Waterway Park

This beautiful senior is on her way to Baylor in September as you can tell by her first outfit choice  – a pretty shift shirt in Baylor colours!  This is the first half of her senior session in the Woodlands, with the first two outfit changes, before we moved on to Spring for the rest of the session.  We chose Waterway Park for the amazing light in the canals, and to add a bit of urban flair before we moved on to the “country half” of the session in the field.

An absolute *must have shot* for your senior portrait session is you in your letterman jacket! You have mad skills and talent  —  you worked hard for those patches and badges, so make sure to get a great shot of you wearing them proudly! This goes for band or sports uniforms too!

Change of location and outfit! Rompers are a *hot fashion trend* this year! She looks amazing in this cute black and white romper, a classic twist on this trendy look for this urban style location. I love the neutral walls of this little spot, the subjects just POP against the plain grey backdrop.

The Woodlands Senior Experience – Professional Hair and Make Up

When it comes to your senior portraits, you want every little detail to be perfect. Going through the final check list, you have your favourite trendy outfit ready to go, your accessories packed, your fit-you-to-a-T comfy boots shined and waiting by the door. The final detail, after your wardrobe is picked out, your location is chosen, and you know exactly what items you’re going to bring to personalize your session …is YOU!

How you get all styled up for your senior session may be the most stressful part.  This is where we come in. When you book a Luxe Senior Portrait Session with Shannon Stroubakis, you are investing not just in a fun photoshoot where you’ll walk away with some amazing portraits from your senior year. You’re getting an experience that makes your senior picture session easy, stress free, and where you get to feel like a rock star for the day. I’m not just going to leave your floundering around the interwebz, searching for “make up tips for senior photography sessions” or “how to look your best for your senior shoot”. Your Luxe Senior Session comes with an appointment with a professional make up artist, who will style you exactly the way you should be for your senior pictures — beautiful, glowing, natural and camera ready. The make up artist and stylist I work  with, Monika Gallardo, is a professional with years of experience. She only uses the best products to ensure your look is flawless.

BFF or Sisters Senior Sessions – The Woodlands Senior Portraits

There’s always that one person who has been there for you through thick and thin. Maybe your childhood BFF, your high school bestie, or your sister or cousin. The one you do everything with and celebrate all your milestones. As you enter your senior year of high school and are looking for your senior photographer in Spring or the Woodlands, think about how fun it would be to have your senior portraits taken with your BFF!

These sisters came to me for their senior portraits, and what a beautiful pair! You can see their individual senior pictures featured here and here. When I shoot a double senior session, I make sure to get amazing portraits of each girl in her multiple outfits to show off her own individual personality. These girls booked the Luxe Senior session and had their hair and make up beautifully styled for them, to show off their amazing style. After individual senior pictures, we take portraits of the two of you together, having fun and just being yourselves.

Spring Field – The Woodlands Senior Photographer

When I met the most gorgeous pair of sisters for their senior portraits this year, I did a double take! Both stunning, with amazing long ombre hair and some serious fashion style. I featured Khrissy’s senior portrait session already, check it out here!

This beauty in blue is Kaylon, and while she wanted the same locations for her senior portraits as her sister with the beautiful golden light for their senior graduation announcements, no two high school senior sessions are alike because no two people are the same. So we worked with different poses and expressions to reflect her own personality and style. Kaylon has some killer cheekbones and I wanted her pictures to show not only her sunny personality but her gorgeous bone structure and soulfulness. Look at those big luminous brown eyes!

senior photographer the woodlands

For her outfit change, Kaylon chose this cute and flirty greenish blue dress — a perfect dress for spring with the lace detail and pleated skirt. Instead of high heels, Kaylon chose flat natural sandals more in keeping with her laid back style and down to earth personality. Close to sunset, we had this gorgeous backlight through the field. A perfect day for senior pictures!

Street Style Senior Portraits – The Woodlands High School Senior Photographer

I got to do something a little different for this senior portrait session – a fun “urban” style shoot.  When seniors want “urban”  it’s a challenge since in the Woodlands we don’t have graffiti, broken down areas, dirty alleyways or junk yard type location. Our area is just too beautiful and well taken care of, which is a good thing!  So, for this senior shoot, we made use of  gorgeous parking garage light, colour pops, and window reflections to give a downtown air to her senior pictures. I’m always up for a good challenge!

Elena started with two beautiful summery dresses, the first in a bright colour to give a little flair to her senior pictures.  The electric blue looks amazing with her dark hair. She chose the Luxe Senior Session, which includes hair and make up styling by professional artist Monika Gellardo. I love the straightened hair bob, a perfect style for a fresh modern look for urban street photographs.

spring-tx-senior-urban

black-and-white-senior-portraits

 

unique-senior-portraits-the-woodlands

the-woodlands-urban-senior

Time for an outfit change! Elena chose two locations for her senior pictures but wanted about 80% of her shoot to be done around town. This is what I love about offering personally tailored senior sessions for my clients — we meet before the session to go over which locations fit YOUR personality best and then choose outfits that will match the look and vibe of that location. She knew she already had a knock-em-out colourful dress, so for her next wardrobe change she opted for a sweet and feminine airy sundress, with  fresh spring flowers. This dress was a perfect match for the Mediterranean style (hey, I thought I was back in Greece or Italy for a minute there!) elements we found to shoot with, and columns.

senior-portraits-urban-market-street

senior-pictures-the-woodlands

Finally, we headed to the park for a little greenery. With this rustic style outfit, the plan was to find an earthy location to match the colours and feel of her favourite couture shirt and boots. I love how her gorgeous brown eyes just pop with the reds and greens. I had a lot of fun with Elena shooting her senior portraits and helping her put together the perfect Collection to show them off.

Variety and the Senior Experience – Senior Portrait Photographer

When it comes to your senior portraits, having a senior photographer who can capture your true personality and offer variety in your senior photos is very important. For this reason, every senior session I shoot is up to three hours long, in two different locations, and allows you to have as many outfit changes as you can fit into your time slot. This ensures that we have the time to get the pictures you want, in all your favourite outfits, without feeling rushed. You want to have FUN during your senior photoshoot, and a stress-free experience.

Without imposed limits, we’re free to get one the most important elements of a fabulous senior photoshoot – variety. To make sure your gallery is chock full of gorgeous images that are unique, I make use of different locations, moods, poses, lenses and most importantly lighting. Great lighting is so important in photography, and having a senior photographer who understands light is key, and who has the professional gear to make our vision for your senior portraits a reality.

Take these two photos of Celenia during her recent senior photo shoot. Same location and shot seconds apart. The difference is the lighting, and it gives each portrait a considerably different mood and look.  The photo on the left was shot to avoid the light hitting the lens, for a clean and crisp close up portrait to show off her gorgeous eyes and skin. On the right, I allowed the golden late afternoon light to seep in and create a bit of haze, for a warm sweet summery glow. I love them both, and she looks like she just stepped out of a magazine!

Senior Portrait Posing – The Woodlands Senior Photographer

Got a case of the nerves?

As I’m now booking for the Class of 2015 Senior Portraits (dates in the fall are already going!) the phone is ringing with excited soon-to-be senior girls looking forward to their epic senior photo shoots. Still, it’s not uncommon that  I’ll hear one of my clients confess to being a little nervous and anxious about getting in front of the camera. If you’re a little nervous, don’t worry — you’re not alone! I know it can be a little nerve wracking with a camera lens pointed at you, and you’re worried that you won’t know what to do. “How will I pose? Am I going to look awkward?” might be going through your head right now and the shoot is still months away!

You can stop worrying right now. We’re going to meet before the session. I’m going to get to know you a little, so you feel comfortable with me and trust me to take amazing photos of you. I don’t click the shutter until I have you in the most beautiful light, at the perfect angle, using the right lens for the shot, and until I’ve made you at ease, or got you laughing naturally. We’ll have fun, you’re going to have a great time! I know just how to get those serene and beautiful shots naturally, so your “poses” don’t look fake or canned.

So take a deep breath and relax – you’re going to be fabulous!

This senior portrait session was SO much fun and wow did she manage to fit a lot of different outfits into her photoshoot! My goal for senior pictures is for clients to showcase their style, all sides of themselves, so if you can fit half a dozen wardrobe changes in there, go for it! This is Part 1 of Alyssa’s senior picture session here in the Woodlands. She started out with some high fashion senior photos with urban styling and bright colours and tons of pretty accessories.
