Senioritis — Don’t Let it Get to YOU | Rochester NY Senior Photography

There’s a cool article in the Times about Senioritis - what it is (disconnect with your senior year, lethargy, ready to move forward in life, etc.), and how to make sure it doesn’t happen to you.alexkate1-copy


I remember being worried about the change from high school to college and both wanting it to happen and dreading it.  It’s a very strange sensation — because it is a major milestone in your life — but so so so exciting.   Check it out!

Makeup and Hair and Why You Should Care.

Sometimes when a senior girl contacts me she tells me – I don’t usually wear makeup. And as a person who RARELY does either – I totally get that.

Makeup as a concept is pretty foreign to me. I used to think – “eh – who cares?” But…after doing this a while, processing thousands upon thousands of images I can confidently say this: it matters.

Makeup gives your skin just that little bit of extra – smooths, beautifies, makes you glow. It’s why we are so drawn to fashion magazines – those girls can look an amazing number of different ways – cute, pretty, hip, grungy, elegant.

Makeup and Hair, baby. So there are really two schools of thought on this – the first is: “I don’t want to look like anyone but me” – and I say in return – I agree!

When you are wearing makeup - - it should enhance you and your natural beauty. Not be a layer or make you feel like you’re wearing a mask.

Makeup done well makes you feel amazing – more free, more beautiful, more alive. The second school of thought is: “I want to wear makeup and ROCK MYSELF OUT LIKE A MODEL” and I say in return – I agree! ::laughing:: It’s all about personality and what YOU want your images to be like. So…I’m telling you all of this to get you thinking. I have a group of amazing professional makeup artists that handle hair and (duh) makeup – and you don’t have to think about it. We do it all for you. It costs extra, yes. But the result makes your photoshoot into something CRAZY COOL. Images that you’ll keep forever.

So…here’s a couple of girls that rocked out the make up and hair professionals – watch their slideshows and think: That could be ME! Email me for more information.
