Are you already thinking of your senior photos for next year? Listen up for some senior photo ideas! I am NOT a big prop photographer. Honestly, I just love to focus on you rather than “stuff.” BUT, I love having a little prop for seniors to use because sometimes we just don’t know what to do with our hands when getting our pictures taken, am I right? It helps senior loosen up a bit, and I get it being the center of the photo attention is not for everyone, so I am all for helping seniors relax at their Tampa senior photo session.

If you are a senior next year, now is the time to start thinking ahead for your graduation photos. I know most schools require the yearbook photos with a specific company, but if you want to do a session with your style and personality highlighted, let me help! Here is a look at a gorgeous spring senior photo session on Davis Island Beach, complete with cap and gown for a few pictures, too!

What is better than senior pictures? Senior pictures at two iconic Tampa locations is better, right?! This senior is on to big things next year and I loved documenting her happy senior style in two Tampa photo locations. We started at Water Street, a newer fun, vibrant location in Tampa. Perfect for her sunny disposition. Then we headed to Davis Islands Beach.

This family is one of my favorites and after years of knowing them, I finally got them in front of my camera. What a big milestone as this guy gets ready to graduate!! I am always thrilled when senior pictures include a portion for family photos, too. As a Plant City senior photographer one of the most requested locations is Medard Park. It is always gorgeous and allowed so much room to bring his baby, er, car with! Having something meaningful at your senior pictures can often time relax seniors more. Especially guys who many not be as used to taking selfies and photos as some of the senior girls I photograph.

Pets welcome! Check out this sweet Riverview Florida senior photo session with her darling dog as w.ll Set at Boyette Springs Park, one of my favorite woodsy and water view locations near Riverview, the light really is magic. Senior photos Tampa, Riverview and the surrounding area provide a lot of lush green backdrops to choose from!

Meet N. Her smile and spirit match her beauty and brains! I adore her and her family. Her senior session was a two part session and I am actually recommending it for future seniors if you can do manage to set up two mini-sessions, or a full session with a plan for two locations in the logistics! Now, for two fun Tampa photo locations, the green house and park area near Fishhawk Ranch, check out these fun senior portraits with personality and such a variety!

This high school senior session took place over two locations; which is always an option to add on to your senior pictures if you like. We started at this senior’s favorite spot, the golf course. Then we headed to Davis Island Beach for some family photos. I love to offer family photos for the last few minutes of a senior session.This works well if your senior doesn’t want too many outfit changes or individual images. Instead, if we take the last third of the session time for family, you get to document your family before the next big milestone of graduation. For a lot of kids, that means leaving “the nest” and it is the last time everyone is around and easy to set up a family photo session!

“Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadows. It's what the sunflowers do.” – Helen Keller. This sunshiney senior is about to graduate, but first we documented her Tampa senior pictures in Winthrop Town Center. The perfect spot for unique urban backdrops and flowers and greenery to give us a lot of variety in a small space. If you are looking for senior pictures in Tampa Bay next year, now is the time to start reaching out to plan for your senior’s portraits for the class of 2024.
