Dan,
I agree. Do an outdoor shoot....they are more fun than the stiff studio shoots. You can do it...pretty easy to do. Or set up a temp background and shoot her outside against a black or what background if she wants that.
I can assist if you want. I am out of town with weddings this weekend but we can hook up next week for something.

Are you speaking from your personal experience as a photographer or your Senior pictures looked bad?:roll: I know many places do awesome studio portraits , and local seniors go there even thought they charge nearly $100 for an 8x10. I am sure some great studio photographers here will take offense to your lame post. May be this lady is a friend of the OP, but that obviously did not cross your lame mind.

See if they would reconsider. Environmental portraits can be way more fun! Studio style is sometimes bland, in my opinion, and it's nice to add something different. All you need is a nice setting and some creativity. Some examples I took recently with only a single lens and Speedlite:
