Senior Photo Ideas for Guys

Oct 7, 2025 | By: Lea Rhea Photography

Hello Senior Guys - or maybe parents of a Senior Guy (or Gal)! 

 

Intro to Senior Sessions:

In my years of photographing high school seniors, one thing has been pretty consistent, and while not 100%, it is the case the majority of the time.  It is that senior guys are usually not really excited about getting senior photos taken.  And, typically, it is mom (but sometimes dad) who is calling because she really wants the pictures of her son during this milestone event and is really hoping that he will go along and be reasonably cooperative.  

Planning Your Senior Sesison: 

Mom and/or Dad share with me a variety of information about their son so together we can get a better idea of what is possible and we talk about what they would like to get out of their son's senior session in terms of finished products.  I always offer and encourage a presession planning meeting in the studio but honestly this happens more with girls than guys and no sense pushing the guys beyond their comfort zone!

Your Senior Session:

Fast forward to the senior photography session and I can say without exception, I have photographed some of the most kind and considerate young men.  Some were clearly there because this is what their parents wanted and they are being gracious and cooperating to please mom.  However, most come around during their senior session and their personality starts to show through with a few of them even tossing out ideas and suggestions for poses - which is great!  

It is safe to say in the beginning that I don't think the guys have a vision of what they might want to do with their senior images but when they see their images after their session and they see a mock up of a senior book with them as the star, it all comes together for them.  

Whether we are in the studio or on location, it is always my goal to make a senior's session customized and personalized for them - so no two sessions are exactly the same.  If they have a location in mind, that is great, but if not, I am ready with several suggestions based on what I have learned about them.  And, we try to incorporate as many items as possible based on where we take their photos to really showcase who they are at this point in their life.  I want them to be able to look back on their senior book and remember that time with nostalgia and fondness of who they were and how much they have accomplished in the years since graduation.

Senior Photo Packages:

We offer 4 senior photography packages ranging from a basic Mom's Package at $400 up to our premium G.O.A.T. package at $2000 that literally has everything in it and includes 4 sessions across their senior year so you get all the big events.  Each package includes the session fee and generous $ credit to be spent on the client's choices of print and digital products.   

Scheduling Your Senior Photography Session:

Senior photography sessions can be scheduled anytime during the year - and both fall and spring are great times.  Give us a call today for more information and so we can make sure you have senior photos to enjoy long after you get that hard earned diploma!   This is a milestone worth celebrating and remembering!
