En Garde | Chicago Senior Photographer
I’m always amazed and humbled when people travel to hire me. It seems to happen for senior sessions more than anything else. I had photographed his family years and year ago, but they had stayed fans of my work and wanted to come see me for their senior pictures. I love being a Chicago senior photographer because there are so many suburbs in the metro area, and if you are a Chicagoan, you tend to not mind driving an hour to get somewhere. 😉
I hadn’t seen this young man since he was around 8 or 10, so I didn’t even recognize him!! He was such a nice guy.
Moms tend to ask what their senior boys should wear for this pictures. Always at least two outfits. And I love it when they wear a suit! You get the variety of with and without the jacket. And I love that he had a bit of color with that lavender.
Then he changed into a more casual outfit, and we moved to another spot. We were going for our urban location which offers a lot of variety and is great for a casual but cool senior.
I absolutely LOVE a great close up picture!! I’m currently planning my own son’s senior pictures, and you can bet I will be sure to try to get some great ones like this.
If you follow my work, you know I rock athletes. I love challenging myself to create new and exciting sportraits. This was my very first time photographing a fencing student! How cool is it that his high school has a fencing team?! I’m jealous!
If you have a 2022 senior, it isn’t too late to get amazing senior portraits done this spring. And if you have a 2023 senior, it is time to start thinking about them! Summer will be here before you know it! Firefly Nights Photography is ready to be your Chicago senior photographer.
