Frequently Asked Questions for Senior Sessions – Portland, OR & the PNW

Planning your senior photos in Portland, OR? I’ve got you covered! Whether you're dreaming of wildflower fields, city vibes, or forest trails, here are some of the most common questions I get about senior sessions in Portland and the greater Pacific Northwest.

📅 When should I book my senior session?

I recommend booking 3–4 months in advance, especially if you want a prime season (like summer blooms or fall colors). June–October is the most popular time for outdoor sessions in the PNW! Remember, Senior Photos for the Yearbook are due Ocotber!

📍 Where do sessions take place?

I have a curated list of gorgeous locations in and around Portland, including:

• Flower fields

• Forest trails

• Urban spots with murals and architecture

• River views and hidden gems 🌲🌼
  We'll choose a spot that fits your style and personality.

💄 Do you offer hair & makeup?

While I don’t include it in my packages, I can recommend some amazing local artists who specialize in natural, camera-ready looks.

👗 What should I wear?

I always send a style guide to help you choose outfits that photograph beautifully. Layers, textures, and something that feels totally you is always a win. We can even do outfit changes during the session!

🕒 How long does the session last?

Most sessions are around 1–1.5 hours, giving us time for multiple locations or outfit changes. Want something more custom? I also offer extended sessions!
