YOU'VE GOT QUESTIONS. I'VE GOT ANSWERS!
- How soon do I need to book senior photos?
-
As soon as you know you want me to be your senior photographer, I recommend grabbing a date on the calendar. When June rolls around, Junior's start remembering they need senior photos and dates book up quickly.
Here's 3 Reason to book your senior session early:
1. BETTER CHOICE OF DATES
2. MORE PREP TIME
3. TIME TO RESCHEDULE, IF NEEDED
- Will you help me prepare for my senior photos?
-
Absolutely! Amazing senior photos don't just happen. As soon as you put your senior photo session on the calendar, the planning emails start hitting your inbox. From the date you book until the day of your session, you'll receive Session Prep Emails with tips, tricks, packing lists and questionnaires to help you plan the perfect senior session for YOU. About a month prior to your session, we'll have a phone consultation to discuss your ideas and finalize all of the details.
- Do you offer products?
-
Beautiful photos are not meant to just sit on a hard drive that could eventually die anyway. I want you to display your gorgeous photos on your walls and in a keepsake album for your mom to look through when you've gone off to college and she's missing you.
Almost every one of my clients choose a collection that include an ALBUM, CANVAS or ACRYLIC, an ONLINE GALLERY and the DIGITALS. It's ALL your favorite things!
- Do I get the digitals?
-
Although I 100% believe in products to showcase your amazing photos, I equally believe in having your digital images. Every Collection I offer comes with a certain amount of photos which include the matching digital images. And YES, I do offer Collections that include ALL of your digital images as well!
- Do you offer Hair and Makeup?
-
I have the BEST hair and makeup artist that comes to YOUR HOME before your session. She listens to your ideas and gives you a very natural look to ensure that you look like YOU and not a barbie doll for your senior photos. Hair and Makeup is $125 and is paid directly to the Hair and Makeup Artist the day of your session.
- What if I don't know how to pose?
-
One of my clients' biggest fears is that they won't know how to pose for their pics! Let me assure you, you don't need to be anxious about this and here's why:
1. I'm going to SHOW exactly how I want you to pose.
2. We try to include doing the things you love in your photos. You already know how to hit a golf ball, go on pointe or hug your dog, etc. so you're going to look amazing doing the thing you love. And if I'm not sure if the pose is the way you want it, I'll show you the back of my camera to make sure you're happy with it too.
3. I'm all about NATURAL poses as well as CANDIDS and MOVEMENT. Not every photograph I take of you needs to be perfectly posed. I love those in between the moment shots and I know you do too.
4. We are not rushed to get the pose right the first time. Sessions are laid back and fun and not at all rushed so don't stress about anything! You are going to look amazing, I promise!
- Do you photograph Senior Guys?
-
When I first started photographing seniors, I had NO idea that senior guys would be almost half of my senior business. I approach Senior Guy Photos much different than most other photographers. I focus on all the things they enjoy doing and use advanced lighting to create images that are dramatic, eye catching and a work of art! Whether it's a sport, hobby or even a video game addiction, I'm going to create photos that senior guys are proud of. And YES, we squeeze the posed photos in between but I promise, there's no leaning against a tree involved!
- What if I don't do a sport?
-
I love photographing seniors with their favorite sports and hobbies but it's 100% normal and okay to not want to include anything in your photos but YOU.
- What makes Dawn Sparks Photography different than other senior photographers?
-
I'm so glad you asked! There's a lot of reasons I'm different than other photographers in the area and I put a magazine together to show you all of those reasons. But if you're pressed on time, here's a few reasons:
1. I focus on an experience and not just a quick photo shoot;
2. I use advance lighting techniques to create dramatic, eye catching images that you're not going to find anywhere else;
3. I educate every client before their session with ton's of tips and tricks to ensure that your senior photo session is unique and exactly the way you want it;
4. I'm not bound to a studio. The Denver Metro Area is our canvas and you can choose your location. Whether you're hoping for urban rural, mountain views or anything in between, if it's in the Denver Metro Area, we can make it happen. And if being in studio is your thing, I have an amazing Studio option too!
- How much does all this cost?
-
The LUXE Senior Photo Session is $250. This holds your day and includes all of my planning emails, phone consultations and the actual photo session. Your session fee DOES NOT include any prints or digital images.
About two weeks after your photo session, I will set up a time to come to your home to show you a slideshow of all of your amazing photos and the products I offer. You will choose a Portrait Collection at that time. Collections range from $500 to $4000. The average investment is $2500.
- What if I have more questions?
-
I would love to answer any questions you may have and go over the entire process with you. Give me a call at 303-842-1708 or shoot me an email at dawn@dawnsparks.com.
