BEHIND THE SCENES
This is your moment, and I would love to be there to capture it! Sessions do book up early, so when you're ready, let's make it official!
All your questions, answered.
You deserve to feel confident and excited about your senior session! I've put together answers to the most common questions. Still not sure about something? No worries — reach out through the contact form and I'll get back to you!
-
This is one of the most common questions! Your session is all about YOU — your personality, style, and sense of adventure guide the location(s) we choose. Once you schedule, I will send you The Location Guide, which walks you through how to choose your locations along with my favorite local spots and descriptions to help you decide. Have a unique idea or private property in mind? I'm always up for a new adventure! Just keep in mind that traveling outside my usual area may incur additional fees.
-
Yes! Images are enhanced while keeping your true self intact. Freckles, beauty marks, and all the little details that make you uniquely you stay in place. I do, however, gently smooth blemishes, dry patches, or uneven textures so your skin looks polished while still completely natural.
-
Absolutely!
Seniors: Do you play a sport, an instrument, or dance? Love books, cars, hats, flowers, or have another item that shows who you are? Bring it along! Your session is all about YOU, so we’ll include anything that reflects your personality and passions.
Grads: Want to celebrate with a champagne spray, confetti, or cigars? Bring those, along with sports gear, alumni shirts, or any items that tell your story — we’ll make them part of your session!
Families: Special items are welcome too! Wear your favorite team jerseys, bring a family quilt, or anything that represents your family’s story. We’ll make sure to highlight the items that matter most to you.
-
YES! Pets are always welcome. Just let me know ahead of time so I can confirm your location allows them. I recommend giving them some exercise before the session and bringing their favorite toy or treats — happy pets make for relaxed, joyful photos!
-
Your session fee is due by your session day and depends on the package you choose. It covers the session itself, my time and expertise as your photographer, and the professional editing of your images. You’ll receive your high-resolution photos through a secure online gallery, complete with full authorization to download and print.
I accept cash, checks and most major credit cards. For full details, check out the PRICING PAGE. -
Life happens — I get it! If illness, emergencies, or scheduling conflicts come up, please give 24–48 hours’ notice. Fall is a busy season, so rescheduling can sometimes be tricky, but we’ll do our best to make it work.
Sessions can absolutely happen on overcast or cloudy days — in fact, these often make for beautiful, soft, natural lighting! We will only need to reschedule if it’s raining, gloomy, or unsafe for shooting. Either way, you’ll get authentic, vibrant images that capture your senior year perfectly.
-
Absolutely! I can help size your favorite photo for your yearbook headshot. Just let me know which one you choose and the specifications, and I can even submit it for you if you’d like.
-
Your fully edited images are usually delivered through your secure online gallery within two weeks. During peak season, it might take up to three weeks — I want to give every photo the attention it deserves! While I’m editing, I’ll share a sneak peek online, so keep an eye on Tish O’Connor Photography’s social media for a first look at your session magic.
-
With each session, you’ll receive full reproduction rights for personal use — meaning you can print, share, and enjoy your images. The copyright, however, remains with Tish O’Connor Photography. Images may not be sold or published without written permission, and all editing or alterations must be done by Tish O’Connor Photography to maintain the quality of your photos.
If you're a parent, you know how quickly it all goes. One moment they’re taking their first steps or heading off to their first day of school, and before you know it they’re standing on the edge of adulthood, ready to begin the next chapter of their lives.
My own daughters are now grown and living in California, and I’m so thankful for the photographs we have from those years. Those images take me right back to the laughter, the milestones, and the moments that once felt ordinary but now mean everything. That’s why senior portraits matter so much to me, they capture this season of life exactly as it is.
It would be such an honor to help capture this moment for your family.
