Reasons to Take Portraits | Kindergarten & Graduation

First and last day of school.

With all of the pandemic talk about school plans for next year I thought it was the perfect time to start my new series called Reasons to Take Portraits.

One reason you should get updated portraits is if you have a child starting school. Kindergartners are absolutely adorable and still your babies! If you don’t think so, take a picture on the first day of school and on the last day of school to compare how much they have matured and grown in just one school year.

Before your child’s first day of school, we could go over to the school and take portraits of the little one in front of the school. Another favorite is seeing little 4 & 5 year olds with their big backpacks on climbing the steps of the school bus.

This year in particular, with everyone doing home schooling virtually, most families will need the traditional stuffy school picture. Did you know I offer indoor studio portraits that can replace your traditional school portrait?

Just as important as the first day of school is the last day of school. Graduation, whether from kinder, high school or college is such an accomplishment. Celebrate it with a portrait session!

Kristy graduated from UNCW, at the top of her class. That is definitely worth celebrating!

I always suggest to not only take portraits in your cap and gown, but also in regular clothes too. After all, when was the last time a senior had professional portraits taken? It’s probably been a long while.

No matter what your senior is into, video games, sports, music, photography or baking, get portraits of your senior in their element. You will love to look back on those later and remember their talents and interests at that age.
