High school or college can seem like the most challenging time of your life. This is why it is important to celebrate graduation by taking amazing senior pictures. There is nothing more critical than capturing such an important time of your life. I remember going to high school and how ecstatic I was at the thought of a graduation photoshoot. Here are some amazing high school / college senior photoshoot ideas that are perfect for your Instagram. 

1. Blow Confetti

Say “Hello” to your bright future ahead by capturing graduation photos with some confetti. You can blow on the confetti and get your friends involved. It also makes for the perfect Boomerang if you are feeling extra creative and need content for your socials. Head over to a nearby craft store to grab a pack of confetti and add some colors to your graduation pictures.

Or even better (so as not to leave a mess), have your local photographer near you Photoshop in the fun sparkles of digital confetti. Looks great and is also better for the environment as you don't leave confetti on the ground. Yay! 

2. Use Scrabble Tiles

If you want something fun and nerdy at the same time, you can use scrabble tiles to spell “Senior” or “Grad” and place the tiles on your palm. It makes for the perfect picture. You can even go more creative than that and compose something more personal. Besides this, you and your friends could compose something for each other using scrabble tiles.  

3. Add Colorful Balloons

Who does not love colorful balloons in their pictures? Capture the ultimate senior picture by getting colorful balloons spelling out your graduation year. Play with the balloons and reflect your playful vibe. The final result will be an eye-catching senior shot that deserves a ton of likes. 

4. Play the Guitar

Belt out a fun tune! Actually play your guitar and show off your star quality! Musical instruments are a great prop that is always fun to use. If you enjoy playing the guitar, you should use it in your senior pics. You can be photographed holding the guitar, playing the guitar, or posing with the guitar. So many possibilities. You could even pretend to hit your friend with the guitar as an inside joke. (No guitars or friends shall be harmed during this photo production). 

5. Show Off Your Hobby

Speaking of playing the guitar, you may have other hobbies that blow your hair back as well. So, it might be a good idea to show off your hobby in your graduation photoshoot. You've got talent and are ready to shine! You could show-off soccer, football, baseball, basketball, painting, or even singing. Any hobby counts.
