Why trust Portraits by Linda with your high school senior pictures?
In my High School Senior Location sessions, I block off up to three hours to ensure that my seniors get a good variety of photos at different locations and in different outfits. You can choose up to two locations in the West Branch area. Spend up to 1 1/2 hours if you have an indoor session only.
Your senior photos should reflect your unique personality, which is why I encourage you to bring your pets, your musical instruments, a car, or a best friend. If you would like to learn more, read the blog "How to Personalize Your Senior Session"

Do you want formal and casual photos? No problem. I love variety! Bring as many changes of clothes as you'd like, and I’ll photograph a variety of poses.
Don't worry about any acne or blemishes! I do basic photo retouching to enhance the quality of your high school senior photos, which includes removing acne or blemishes that are not permanent.
My standard senior photography session fee is $150-$200. Most of my senior clients spend $500-$700 on prints and products.

Frequently Asked Questions About Your Senior Session
How much do you charge?

When should I schedule my High School Session?

How long from the session to getting my prints?
Usually I will have you preview your images 2 weeks after your session. If you order then, your products should only take 4 weeks to come back. If you are in a hurry, we can put a rush on your order for a nominal fee.
How do you take payments?
I send an invoice through Paypal and you can use any credit card to pay, whether you have a Paypal account or not. If you would like to pay in cash or by check, I accept those payments as well.
Do you have a cancellation policy?
Yes, I do. If you need to cancel, I would love if you could let me know asap. We can either reschedule your session or refund your money, as long as you cancel within 48 hours. If you don't cancel within 48 hours, your retainer will serve as a cancellation fee.
Will you travel to other locations for my sessions?
Yes! I love to work in new areas! Just let me know and we can discuss the location and travel fees, if required.
What if the weather is bad?
I will watch the weather the week of your session and if it looks inclement, we can discuss rescheduling. I will contact you a day or two before your session, just to touch base.
Can I bring my pet to my session?
Your pet is welcome, as long as it is kept on a leash or in a crate, until time to bring it into your session. If you want to have it in the studio, it must be potty trained. 🙂 I love adding pets to your session!
My daughter's senior pictures are stunning! Linda made us both comfortable throughout the session. Her rapport with my daughter is evident in the big smiles she captured. Linda was prompt with providing us information when I first inquired. We were able to readily secure a session. Linda made the appointment for professional makeup and hair and even paid the stylist's tip as part of the service. The photo session was relaxed and enjoyable. Linda's years of experience and her warm and friendly demeanor will ensure we will seek her out for all future photography needs.
"Very professional. The shoot was fun and the pictures were beautiful." Alexandre Morrison
"Very nice photos of my granddaughter. I love all the photos Linda took and it was very hard to pick these final ones. Linda is extremely easy to work with, she was very patient as we tried to decide which pics we wanted . I never felt rushed. Linda is a excellent photographer and her prices are very reasonable. Definitely 5 stars ."
