What To Expect When You Book A Senior Session With Me

Booking your senior session should feel exciting—not overwhelming. If you're wondering what it’s really like to work with me, here’s a peek behind the scenes at the bold, stress-free, confidence-boosting experience I deliver for every senior.

Step 1: Booking Made Easy

The whole process starts online at jaimyellisphotog.com/seniors. Choose the session that fits your vibe and book it directly through my site. No phone tag. No guesswork. Just pick your date, pay your session fee, and you're officially on my calendar!

👉 Pro tip: I open booking for the next graduating class every Black Friday—so plan ahead!

Step 2: Let’s Get to Know Each Other

Once you book, you’ll get an email with a questionnaire and model release. This helps me learn about you—your personality, style, interests, and what you want your session to feel like. You’ll also receive a bunch of planning tips and guides straight to your inbox to help you prep like a pro.

Step 3: Style & Strategy Session

About two weeks before your shoot, we’ll meet for a Styling Consultation. This is where the magic starts.

We'll:

  • Go through your outfit options
  • Plan location ideas that match your vibe
  • Review product samples and talk through what you might want from your images

Don’t stress about what to wear—I’ve got you. I’ll help you put together looks that feel like you, and I’ll make sure every detail is on point.

Step 4: Shoot Day = Hype Day

On the day of your shoot, come ready for a fun, confidence-filled afternoon. Bring all your outfits, accessories, and touch-up items.

Here’s what’s going down: 🎯 I’ll direct every pose and expression so you never have to wonder what to do with your hands.

  • We’ll shoot a mix of traditional, candid, and action shots to capture the real you.
  • Behind-the-scenes photos + video? Yes please. You'll get a custom Reel and sneak peek to share with your people.

Expect high energy, lots of laughs, and a full-on celebration of your story.

Step 5: Time to Choose Your Favorites

About two weeks after your session, we’ll meet again for your Image Reveal and Ordering Appointment at my studio. This is where you’ll see your images for the first time (yes, it’s as exciting as it sounds!).

You’ll

  • Select your favorite ePortraits
  • Pick out wall art, albums, grad cards, and more
  • Get everything delivered in a beautifully curated online gallery and mobile app.

It’s all about creating artwork you love and images you can’t wait to share.

Real Talk: This Isn’t Just a Photoshoot

It’s an experience that celebrates who you are, where you’re going, and how far you’ve come. My job? To capture it all—boldly, authentically, and beautifully.

So if you’re ready to ditch the cookie-cutter poses and create something unforgettable, I’m your girl.
