No, you will still need to get these shots done with your school’s contracted photographer if that is what is needed for your yearbook. Almodóvar Photography’s Senior Portraits are contemporary and modern shots that are designed to show off your personality; all packages do include one complimentary yearbook shot if your school allows “non traditional” shots! If you aren’t sure what is needed, please forward us the school’s email to contact@almodovarphotography.com for information and I’m happy to help you figure it out!
WHY do I need one? Professional Makeup Artists {MUA} know how to apply makeup, taking advantage of technical / natural lighting so that skin looks great.
Each of our sessions allows for a certain amount of time, you may notice there is no limit on the amount of outfits. We will be discussing your wardrobe prior to your session. So bring enough for us to style you best. Some things photograph better than others ….. and some things just do not make us look our best alone.
Your makeup artist stays throughout the entire session and makes sure that you’re not “shiny” and perfectly put together for each outfit change.
There is no limit to how many photos from your session you’d like to include. If you’re interested in these, we will discuss the design and your options during your ordering session; the order for them is placed at the same time as your print order. (We have lots of samples for you to see and we can discuss your options then).
Both, Almodóvar Photography does most of the boutique/formal sessions in our studio where we can control the lighting and the beautiful gowns will not get dirty.
To keep our sessions from looking exactly the same, we head out on location – being out on location also gives us a chance to “ENJOY” the moment . . . letting our surroundings inspire us and keeps us on our creative toes. We love natural light and the way textures respond to that light, can completely transform an ordinary image into something amazing.
Sometimes, it rains (especially in the Spring), and even we have not been able to control the weather …. yet. Depending on how bad the rain is or if it is just passing, we will either wait it out if that works for us or we will re-schedule your session for another day/time. If you’re booking in the summer months, a shower or sprinkle may be very welcoming. However, if you are booking a BEACH session, keep in mind that it is usually always windy at the beach, and can sometimes be cloudy there as well.
That depends . . . on the type of session you book, as well as where YOU want to shoot! Bring your ideas, text, email, call, please let us know. This experience is all about YOU. Almodóvar Photography wants you to feel happy and comfortable in your photos . . . we can shoot just about anywhere, if there are permits involved, it would be best to determine the location ahead of time. If you don’t have any ideas, don’t worry – We’ll come up with something awesome.
* Additional travel fees apply for any locations outside of 30 miles of Frederick, MD (21704). .
Wherever we are, you’re going to need water and a couple of snacks. Plan on packing a bag for your wardrobe changes and shoes, as well as smaller bags for jewelry and other accessories. Don’t forget props. {these should be a topic of discussion as well}
A parent MUST attend the session with you – if Mom or Dad drive you crazy or nervous, that’s ok… they can hang out in the car or read a book while we are shooting, but you must have a parent attend. Who knows, this might be great bonding time for you guys! You will either follow us or meet at the location. We know you may want to bring your best friend – well we have Senior Sessions designed for two or more. So if we did not schedule that session, then please do NOT ask your friends to attend. They will just have to wait for your sneak peaks!!!
No, cameras (other than mobile devices) are prohibited on shoots due to copyrights. Poses and shots that are used for copyrighted images may not be photographed. You are welcome to take some selfies to remember the experience! We will even get in a selfie with you.
Well…. most likely in your car or ours. Don’t worry, we’ll make sure nobody can see in there!
