Senior Pictures

[tjketa]

I've searched for a thread on this, but must not be typing in the correct keywords, so my apologies upfront if I'm asking something that keeps getting covered.

I've been shooting athletics for years now for the local HS. I now am being inundated with requests to do senior pictures. My basic question is what is an ideal workflow for senior pictures -- i.e. when do people typically start shooting them?

It looks like in perusing websites that their is a mixture of studio shots and outdoor shots too. My other quandary is that since I've been doing athletics, I don't have a studio per se, though I have backdrops and lighting that I can simply set up.

Can anyone steer me in the direction of a Site or thread that describes a reasonable flow or just simply offer some benefit of your wisdom.

Thank you --- Tom

maybe contact their HS yearbook and see when the deadlines are ... that should give you a ballpark.

Maybe search for senior picture threads and look at the dates they posted and see when typically most of them occur ... ie "my first senior of the year" etc
