Choosing Your Wall Portrait Size, Style and Format: The Woodlands Portrait Photographer

The family portrait is an important investment, so it’s essential to ensure you have carefully considered the overall look, style and proportion for the final piece. When your family, senior, engagement or maternity portrait session is completed, I invite clients for an in person Viewing Appointment so I can personally help you choose the perfect size, ratio and medium for your wall portrait. I’ll show you samples of the products I offer, so you can inspect and touch the products yourself.

For gallery wrapped canvases, these come ready to hang and you do not need to frame them. Metals are designed to be hung without a frame to show off the superior gloss, and the sturdy waterproof and UV resistant design means you don’t have to worry about sun or water damage. For photographic prints I offer complimentary styrene mounting so you can mount your portrait on the wall without a frame, and it’s thin enough to put in wall frames.  Here is a comparison of a senior portrait from a session in the Woodlands.

WITH FRAMES

OPTION 1:  By using a larger frame, you can highlight your wall portrait with accent matting around a smaller size print. The portrait keeps  it’s original ratio and composition intact with matching coloured mat before being inserted into a  frame. The matted frame means you don’t have to crop the original shot. There is a wide variety of colors and styles to choose from, for custom or traditional matted frames.

matting-8x12

 

OPTION 2: Without matting. This option zooms in larger on the image, but crops out some of the background and the subject.

 

framed-16x20

WITHOUT FRAMES

 

OPTION 1: A mounted print, metal or canvas without the frame. The traditional camera ratio for older cameras was 4:5, which created the infamous 8×10 desk print. As a wall portrait, your image could be anything from a 16×20 to a 32×40 or larger. Since the camera shoots at a 2:3 ratio, this crops your image.

 

crop-16x20

OPTION 2: A mounted print, metal or canvas without the frame, left in it’s original composition and ratio. This size works well for image of standing subjects, where you want to keep the surrounding environment. For this image, it’s the best choice for this particular image to keep the beautiful field around her.

Fashionable Senior Portraits – Around Town in the Woodlands

This beautiful senior was looking for something a little more urban and colourful for her senior portraits in the Woodlands. So we headed to the busy streets and shopping district, to capture a more “city feel” to her senior pictures. We were looking for a busier, more chic scene for the first part of her senior photoshoot before moving on to a more natural environment for the second half.

We shot around the theatre and shopping centre first,  and she wore this amazing dress which worked perfectly with the busy downtown atmosphere.  I love the shiny black walls and windows for reflections, mixed with classic portraits.

We moved across to the Waterway area, to shoot some dramatic black and white portraits using the beautiful light in the canal. I love this location for it’s intense light and shadows. As with all my senior portrait shoots, my clients have unlimited outfit changes, and I encourage variety for your session.

Another outfit change, and shift in location. This tucked away little corner has beautiful soft light for flattering portraits and a neutral backdrop. Wearing bright or deep colours against the grey walls really stands out. I adore the design on this unique dress and the boots are a fantastic match!

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.

Class of 2015 The Woodlands Senior Photographer

We had such an amazing time at Sheridan’s photoshoot, I was sad to see the sun set and the end of all that gorgeous light! For her senior photography session, we set up early to have enough time to fit all her gorgeous outfits in, and cover every inch of her chosen location, to get as much variety as we could for her senior portraits. She was such a trooper and kept on smiling. Definitely one of the stars of the Class of 2015 senior portrait year here!

We shot right at the edge of where the light met the shadows for some drama.  Those “walking” shots and “twirling” ones are pretty hard to get right, but Sheridan rocked all the poses! For her first outfit, she chose this fun and funky dress – black and white stripes with that brilliant pop of bright blue to set off her amazing eyes.

Time for  a change – second outfit! More casual, to do some seated shots and show off those awesome boots. The amazing make up artist, Monika Gallardo, can do anything with hair! I love the soft curls she did for Sheridan and she somehow works some magic so they stay in for the whole three hour shoot!

outdoor-senior-portraits-the-woodlands

 

Walking around the waterways, we found some amazing colour in the trees. Shooting at the perfect angle, I got the reflection of the trees and that gorgeous colour in the water.

No senior portrait session would be complete without showing off what made your highschool senior year so special. Bring your class ring, and your letterman jacket, to personalize your session.

Last outfit change of the night, and we snuck away to shoot in this tiny little forested that was tucked away out of sight. I love being able to find special little places full of gorgeous light! The golden hour light on her long hair, with that ethereal skirt and enchanted forest feel, made for the perfect end to this Class of 2015 senior portrait session.

Adorable Sisters – Professional Photographer The Woodlands

Another gorgeous day for a family portrait session for this family from Spring, TX. A clear blue sky, beautiful fall light, a field of wheat coloured grasses and these adorable sisters – such a fun session!

For family portraits with little ones, I make sure to leave enough shooting time to accommodate snacks and time outs, and some cuddles with their favourite blanket or teddy bear. We’ll start with the family together, since at the beginning of the session children are often the most coooperative and a little curious, which helps get those formal shots where we want eye contact. We will move on to  mother-daughter and daddy-daughter portraits, so every child gets a special moment alone with mom and dad. They love this part of the photoshoot!  I won’t let you get away with not having a shot of the two of you together either — children love to see portraits of their parents, and walking by a portrait of their parents happy and together has been proven to help boost their self esteem and happiness!

 The kids are usually more at ease towards the end of the session, to get some individual and sibling shots. Families often worry about their little ones not cooperating, and sometimes all the naps and kisses in the world can’t make the portrait seem less scary for toddlers. With time and patience, we’ll get those family portraits you’re looking for! Some of my favourite child photographs are of the children just being themselves – and if teddy, a soother, or a comforting blanket is a part of your child’s life right now, making it a part of the portrait session (even if just to help soothe tears) may be something you’ll be thankful for years from now. I aim to capture your family, your children, as they are so you have those visual reminders in the years to come how they are NOW, while they’re little. Embrace this now, and document it forever.

Family of Boys – The Woodlands TX Portrait Photographer

Most families want their family portraits taken in spring or fall, when the weather is nice and temperate, and the flowers are in bloom or the leaves are changing towards beautiful fall colour.  This family flew in to their home town in Spring and the Woodlands for the holidays, and we were a little worried about the cold winter weather for their family portraits in January!  Chilly as it was, the winter light is really light and airy which makes for pretty photos, the sky is clear and blue, and the grass is a natural wheaten shade that looks rustic and country. Overall, it’s a really pretty look for your family photos and I rather like shooting in winter here.

This family with four  handsome boys braved a chilly but beautiful January afternoon for their photography session, and you’d never know they were cold by how natural they look in front of the camera! They struck every pose perfectly and were stylish to boot. Thanks for being such good sports!

Large Family Group Portraits in the Woodlands

I met this lovely family close to Christmas, for a family reunion portrait session. I love shooting families who are excited and happy to be back together in the Woodlands area, they always have a great energy. This family was ready for their family portraits with these beautiful cheery red accents and classic black, for a formal but stylishly fun look. The little ones surprised me with how well they posed for the camera! Such a fun family!

The family matriarch contacted me originally in early fall, to make sure her date was booked. I met with her in November, to look over the location near her home and make sure it was suitable for portraits, with sufficient light. I really enjoyed meeting her, and was looking forward to meeting the whole family.

The Sportsman – Senior Photographer in Conroe

When this Class of 2015  senior’s family contacted me for senior portraits up in Silverstone, Conroe I was pretty thrilled at the ideas they were tossing around for his senior pictures. They told me how he’s an outdoor sportsman – a fisherman, a hunter, proficient with the bow and arrow, and a lover of the great outdoors.  They had the perfect little spot in mind up in Conroe, where we could trek through the forest and along a muddy river bank, to get some great shots of him with his gear in a natural environment.

A senior with some cool hobbies? Shooting in the forest and in the mud? Trekking through the tall grass? Count me in! I love a shoot where we get to walk around and get some action shots, and shoot something a little different.

As we were shooting, I was told the area is known for having a 12 foot gator.  Now that I’d have love to have gotten a picture of….from a distance of course! Thanks so much to John for being a great subject, I had a lot of fun with this session!

For senior guys, we keep it short and simple with an hour shoot in your chosen location, which still leaves you plenty of time to get an outfit change in there. There are many of great locations in the Woodlands, Spring or Conroe area, or we can customize your session and shoot in your own backyard.

Mini Collages for Home and Office Desks – The Woodlands Photography

When it comes to how you’ll display the images from your senior, family, maternity or engagement portrait session, there are a lot of choices out there. I will guide you at your viewing and ordering session, showing you all the fantastic products I offer in person so you can see them close up and feel the superior quality.  From large groupings of wall canvases, to mini albums for portability, you’ll get the products that are right for you.

While large mounted prints and wall art are wonderful for home displays,  you also have some smaller product options so you can take your favourite photos into more personal spaces, like your office desk or bedroom dresser. One of the most perfect ways to size down is to put a few images together in a mini collage. I offer these 5×10 desk collages, mounted on artboard for durability, which can be fit into a frame or beautifully displayed in an easel. I offer several designs to choose from, depending on how many images you want to show off.

Put one in your bedroom, to keep photos of your kids by your bedside.

Senior Photography in The Woodlands, TX

Another fabulous senior from this season, Miss Madison, for her Class of 2015 senior portraits! When we met for our pre consultation, we oohed and awwed over the awesome outfits we were going to feature in her senior session  to match the location. She came with some pretty gorgeous outfits, and that white dress was just perfect for the field location. What to wear for your senior portraits is such a big question, so we very carefully go over all your options before the session, to make sure the colours, textures and accessories all go together for tonal harmony and make sense with the chosen locations.  She chose the Luxe Senior Session, which includes hair and make up styling before the big shoot.

We started with a more casual style, with boots and a bright pop of red. She wanted her senior pictures to showcase natural elements, like trees and flowers, with wood textures in the background to match her more natural style. And these bright flowers were the perfect accent for her first outfit of the shoot!

senior-portraits-spring-tx

outdoor-senior-portraits

An outfit change, from country style to soft and trendy. When she first showed me this shirt, I knew she had to include it for her senior photos! A gorgeous shade of blue that matched her eyes, and an interesting unusual pattern,  combined with that flowy airy texture, really made for an eye popping combination against the rustic wood backdrop.

senior-photographer-the-woodlands

Miss Maddie wanted a full half of her senior portrait session to include this stunning white dress. With the last outfit change, we headed out to a wide open field and country road, to catch the gorgeous light on the just-about-to-turn-fall-colours trees and long grasses.

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

best-senior-photographer-spring-tx

fine-art-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!

How to Display Your Portraits: Wall Prints

There is nothing that makes a home feel more complete than hanging the family portraits of the people you love on the wall. When you book your family, senior, maternity or engagement session, we’ll set a time to go over the most important aspects of your upcoming photo shoot so your pictures not only exceed your expectations but also are a perfect match for your home.

MATCHING DECOR

At your consultation, we’ll discuss your home decor so that the entire look of the final portrait that will be framed for the wall is a match. From the colour of your wardrobe to the style you choose – casual, formal or whimsical – we’ll talk details and find the best location in the Woodlands or Spring area to fit your vision, whether it’s earthy with natural colours or bright and colourful with a modern twist.

large-wall-art-the-woodlands

MEASUREMENTS

Before your in person viewing session, it’s a good idea to take measurements of the space where the portraits will go. In the home entrance, above the mantle in the living room, or in the master bedroom are popular places to hang the large family photo. After you’ve chosen your favourite image for display, I’ll show you how it will look in your chosen size. Different sizes can also change the shape, so an 16×24 will be a different shape (ie. longer or skinnier) than the more square shaped 30×40 because of the change in ratio. Remember – 8×10 prints are gift prints! That is not the size you want on your walls, that is the size of the photo you give to Grandma to frame for her mantle. Go big! Here is a little article I wrote on the difference between gift prints and wall art.

white sofa in a orange living-room

COLOUR OR BLACK AND WHITE

Along with your home decor, your personal preference for colour or black and white photos is also something to consider. I convert some of the pictures in your gallery to monochrome, when the light is right and the background isn’t too busy to  be a distraction. I personally love black and white photography, and most of the large prints I have of my own children and for my family album have been converted. When you purchase a digital file, if there is a black and white copy, you keep them both! So it you are printing, we’ll go over the two options to decide which version is right for you.

Red room

I look forward to helping you get the perfect piece of wall art for your home!

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!

Senior Portraits in the Woodlands: Chic Urban

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.

Klein Collins Highschool – Senior Photographer in the Woodlands

I had so much fun with Miss Kim for her senior photography shoot this month! As a true Texas girl, we knew a field and country road would be perfect for her senior portraits – cowboy boots, a lacy white dress,  lots of wood textures, earthy colours, and just the right shades of teal and blue to bring out those gorgeous blue eyes!

It’s not too late to book a last minute senior portrait session with me before grad! CLICK HERE to email me for more information and check out my SENIOR PORTFOLIO HERE.
