If you're wondering when to book your senior photos, you're not alone. In fact, this is one of the most important decisions you'll make during your senior year.

The short answer?

Earlier than you think.

Summer Before Senior Year

The most popular time for senior portraits is the summer before senior year begins.

Benefits include:

  • Flexible schedules
  • Warm weather
  • Green landscapes
  • Plenty of time before yearbook deadlines

Many photographers book their summer calendar months in advance, so planning early gives you the best selection of dates.

SCHEDULE A SESSION

Fall Senior Sessions

Fall is one of our favorite seasons for portraits. The changing colors create beautiful backgrounds and cooler temperatures make outdoor sessions more comfortable.

Keep in mind that fall dates often sell out quickly.

Winter Sessions

Winter sessions can be magical, especially in Colorado. Snow-covered landscapes create dramatic portraits that stand out from traditional senior photos.

Studio sessions are also a fantastic option during winter months.

Spring Sessions

Spring works well for seniors who missed earlier opportunities, but yearbook deadlines may limit image usage depending on your school.

Don't Wait Until Graduation

One of the biggest mistakes families make is waiting until spring of senior year to schedule portraits.

By then:

  • Popular dates are gone
  • Yearbook deadlines may have passed
  • Graduation becomes hectic

Book Early for the Best Experience

The best senior portraits are never rushed. Booking early allows time for planning, outfit consultations, location selection, and creating artwork your family will treasure long after graduation.

Senior year only happens once. Give yourself time to celebrate it properly.
