Your child is all grown up and will soon be leaving the nest. Yes, it’s the time you’ve been waiting for and secretly dreading for the past 17 years. Senior year can only be described as a milestone for both parent and child and should be cherished. Scheduling a professional senior portrait photoshoot might be the last time you can commemorate this unique time; a time when your child is taking strides to start their journey into adulthood. It’s also the season of the culmination of their hard work and effort and should be rewarded and celebrated.
And when it boils down to it, nothing beats a professional senior portrait photoshoot.
Here are just some of the reasons you should consider scheduling one for your child today.
1// Reminisce With High-Quality Photographs
Time machines haven’t been invented yet, but photographs have. When you’re older and grayer and possibly enjoying family get-togethers with your grandkids, you can share these memories of their parents with them. Not only that, but photographs have a way of allowing emotions to come flooding back, and shows the warmth, love, life, and character of the individual you’re capturing. It’s like a moment frozen in time, that can be shared with others.
2// Have Postcard-Like Photographs After They Graduate
When your children have moved out, gone to college or started their own projects, you won’t see them as much, unfortunately. You won’t know what their schedule is like, and trying to get them home for anything can be surprisingly difficult. Those postcard photographs and other memorabilia you’ve collected over the years is all you’ll have of them for a while. That’s why this is the perfect time to encourage them to take professional senior photographs. It’s something you won’t forget and they won’t regret participating in.
3// Bond Over Something Special
Celebrating your child’s transition to adulthood is a great way for you to bond. It’s likely also the last time you’ll have them residing under your roof. If you present it as a gift for all their years of hard work, they’ll feel appreciated. When they look back on those pictures with you, you’ll have a shared memory. A memory unique and personal that you can share with them at a pivotal point in their life.
4// Enhance The Entryway
Nothing is more inviting than an entryway dotted with family photographs. It’s sentimental and homely. Using professionally shot photographs in this part of the home is both appealing and a conversation starter. It’s also a way to sway conversation with your guests so you can subtly brag about your child’s college success. Imagine the conversation.
