Why You Need To Get Your Best Possible Senior Photos in Denver Colorado

By Zsanee Gaines


No doubt about it: senior pictures Denver are a must-have. You need to have your senior picture taken because it can serve a number of purposes in the future. It can be a source of inspiration, making you remember valuable lessons you learned in high school. It can be a source of joy, allowing you reminisce the good times you once shared with your teachers and classmates. It can be a source of pride, giving you the confidence to face the rest of your life.

When you look at your high school senior picture you'll want to remember not just what you looked like in your Denver high school, but rather what you were passionate about during your high school years. Knowing how to express those deeper memories by the pose you adopt is an art form. There are a wide variety of poses to choose from and this article is designed to help you define the one that best fits you.

Make designing the pose you want in your Denver high school senior portrait easy. Your pose should show not just what you looked like but what you personality was. That personality isn't about covering up the fact that one ear is bigger than the other, rather it is about what engages you. Your interests and passions should come out, the smile you get when singing or dancing or what ever you loved doing, that's the shot that will be your forever picture of your high school years.

For example, are you a member of the band? If so, a photo holding your instrument will show off your musical side. Were you a dancer or cheerleader? Then adding your uniform or holding a dance pose may show off your artistic side. Were you on the school paper, then maybe you should hold a note pad and wear a hat with a press pass stuck in the band. It is really all up to you. Think of the future, and answer this question: "What memory do you want to trigger when you look at this specialty photo?"

Treasured senior portraits all have more than just a face in them. They should show a depth of feeling that comes from within the subject. You and your photographer should discuss what you want your picture to represent. Then with their help decide what if any props you should bring to the shoot. Don't expect to simply show up and smile, work with your photographer to produce the best senior photo you can. Remember it's a memory that lasts a lifetime.

Once you've chosen the pose that best fits your personality, it is time to select a photographer to take your Denver high school pictures. You'll find a lot of options in the Denver metro area that differ greatly in both price and expertise. Be smart when you're shopping for a photographer. Look for a professional who can overcome your concerns, if you wear braces but still want to smile confidently then ask the photographer if he can digitally remove them. Find someone who will put your best face forward.

Good photographers get booked up well in advance of the senior portrait season so don't leave it till the last minute. Creating a great looking high school picture can be a very easy and fun experience.
