THIS IS
YOUR DAY 🤍
Welcome to being a LRM Grad! I am so excited to be your senior photographer and I am so pumped to start planning your grad photos.
I know you’ve been waiting a long time for your senior photos and I want this day to be absolutely perfect for you. To make sure that you are 100% prepared for everything I have put together the LRM Grad Client HQ. Pair them together and you will be worry free when your session comes around. Here you will find everything from where we’ll be meeting to answers to questions you probably already have.
This day is about YOU. Let’s do it!

WHAT SHOULD YOU WEAR?
Planning the perfect wardrobe is extremely important to the outcome of your photos. You want your outfits to reflect you and your personality, but you also want to make sure that they are tied together to help create portraits that you are going to love down the road.
For your wardrobe, please pick out 3-4 outfits AT THE MINIMUM! Honestly, if you don’t know what to bring, bring your whole wardrobe! It is better to have too much than too little.
Avoid bringing clothes that are all white or black and make sure that you’re bringing clothes that are different from one another. Even though it may be a white dress and a white top, when we photograph you, it will look like you’re wearing the same outfit in a lot of the photos.
I love color, but not too much color. This means to avoid bringing clothes that are neon/fluorescent colored since this will reflect light in an unflattering way. If you’re not sure what colors work best for you, use the skin tone guide below! When picking your outfits, try to follow this as closely as possible to make sure that you love your photos and everything translates perfectly on camera!
Every senior should bring these items: Dark wash jeans and shoes that are easy to walk in (flats). We will be walking a lot and dark wash jeans pair well with everything!
When you’re done, please text me photos of your outfits laid out on the floor! You don’t have to be wearing them since this is just to give me an idea of how the colors will look with the locations I will help you pick and make sure that you have enough variety that we can create some amazing portraits!
LET'S CHECK THINGS OFF
- Outfits: Do you have everything we picked out for your wardrobe? Make sure to bring everything on hangars or folded to not wrinkle anything.
- All The College Things: SO. IMPORTANT. Make sure you have your Cap, Tassel(s), Gown, Stole, Cord(s), and any other college merch you want to show off like shirts, flag, literally anything college related.
- Accessories: Bracelets, necklaces, sunglasses, hats, scarves, instruments, sports items (soccer, basketballs, lacrosse stick, etc.)
- Shoes: Bring a pair of shoes that are easy to walk in! We can always have you switch into your other shoes once we get to the location.
- Duffel Bag: This is good to have just in case we will be doing a little walking. Please don’t bring outfits in this since they will get wrinkled! If you are planning on doing a champagne spray, please bring a towel.
- Water & Snacks: It’ll probably be hot out so make sure to stay hydrated and bring easy to eat snacks since it’ll be a long day!
-
A Friend: Make sure to bring a friend! They'll help us with carrying, making sure you look perfect, & bringing the best vibes. We can even grab a couple photos of you with them during your session.
- The Fun Stuff: Did someone say champagne? I recommend grabbing 1 bottle of champagne and 1 big bottle of Sprite (sometimes the Sprite sprays better than the actual champagne).
