I have a senior shoot this coming weekend... First one... Parents are very good friends of mine, and I have agreed to do these free of charge, they will pay for any prints and buy me dinner... And I will have experience under my belt. Just mulling things over, and trying to get myself in order as for things to keep in mind..
Level horizons, watch the backgrounds for clutter/distraction, focus on the eyes, mix up the composition, 3 or 4 outfits, have fun, keep her loose and relaxed(this should be easy as I know her fairly well), keep the focus on what she wants, as in the end these will be her photos... I've been keeping my eyes open the past two weeks for spots to shoot and I have a nice list in my Blackberry of places we can visit.
Any other "rules" or tips, specific to senior portraits that the experienced guys would like to share?
Thanks in advance
