In Part 1 of our E&J Senior Experience blog series, we braved embarrassment and shared our awkward senior photos with you! We also shared why we both disliked our own senior photos and the experience we wish we could have had.
You see, both of us have our senior photos proudly tucked away in a shoe box. On a shelf. In our closet. Underneath a bunch of clothes. Completely out of sight. Jon grimaced at the thought of digging them out and showing them to the world, so we hope you enjoyed them! If you missed it, check out Part 1 before reading further!
Because of our less than glamorous senior photo experiences, we set out to create a true experience that our seniors would love to have! That is what led us to create the E&J Senior Experience.
The Style Guide
After you book your E&J Senior Experience, you will receive your very own custom style guide! No body likes to go it alone, so we want you to feel prepared and confident for your session with us! Our style guide gives you ideas on how to pick a location, the perfect time of day for the dreamiest lighting, and style tips that go deep into the details! We not only provide detailed descriptions, we also give you photo examples to go along with the guide for all the visual learners out there like us! Our goal is to provide you with timeless images you will be proud of, so if you still have questions that’s ok! We are always available to you to talk about outfit choices, some go-to locations or any other questions you might have!
The Hair & Makeup
Remember, your E&J Senior Experience is all about the experience! That is why we include professional hair and makeup styling with your session! Our makeup artist will spend time adding counter that can shape your beautiful face, applying lashes to make your eyes pop on camera, and finishing with highlights to compliment your natural features! Whether you have long or short hair, loose, way curls will add body and movement to your hair and to the photos. If you’ve ever wished you could be on the red carpet, we’re rolling it out for you during your Senior Experience. You get to come relax and have fun being treated like the superstar you are!
The Session
Once you are all ready for your session, we travel to your first location and start shooting! We love when our seniors pick more than one location within close proximity to mix up their experience. It allows us to provide multiple looks for your photos and is the perfect way to take advantage of a fun and flirty look in one location, and then change into a more formal dress for a second. We spend two hours with you shooting and capturing every smile, giggle, and fierce Beyonce look you can give us! We also bring along a portable changing station to make sure the switch gives you easy and convenient privacy! After all, it’s all about you!
After the Session
Because we know at this point you are dying to see your photos, within one day we have a sneak peak posted to our Instagram and Facebook account! Within one week, we will have a more extensive sneak peak posted on our blog where we will recap your session and share fun details about our time together and the highlights of your senior year! In just three weeks after the blog post, your final gallery will be delivered in an online, Pinterest-style gallery where you will be able to download, email, share on social media, and even order prints from our professional lab at Walgreens prices! To put it in more simple terms – the photos are all yours. We believe in giving you full access to your gallery, without limitations, so that you can print, share, and enjoy the photos however you like!
That is what an experience with us looks like! We hope we will see you soon!!
