Should I do studio or outdoor photos?

Senior Photos: Studio, On Location or Both?

Studio/Outside How do I decide?

What kind of photos are you looking for? Are you looking for formal portraits, casual photos, or something in between? Studio photos are typically more formal, while outdoor photos can be more casual or even adventurous.

What time of year is it? If you're getting your photos done during the winter, you may want to consider a studio shoot if you don’t like the cold. If you're getting your photos done during the summer, you may want to consider an outdoor shoot, as the natural light can be very flattering.

What kind of mood are you trying to create? Studio photos can create a more formal and controlled mood, while outdoor photos can create a more relaxed and natural mood.

A few more thoughts

If you're not sure what kind of photos you want, it's a good idea to consult with a photographer. They can help you choose the right location and style for your photos.

If you're looking for a more formal look, studio photos are a good choice. Studio photographers have access to professional lighting and backdrops, which can create a more polished look.

If you're looking for a more natural look, outdoor photos are a good choice. The natural light can be very flattering, and you can often find interesting and unique locations to shoot.

Ultimately, the decision of whether to do studio or outdoor photos is up to you. Consider your needs and preferences, and choose the option that best suits you or do a little of both!

No matter what you choose, make sure to have fun with your photo shoot!
