Family Photos Are a Must When Photographing High School Senior Portraits in Lake Country

Your baby is graduating.

Sit with that for just a minute. Maybe it’s your first high school senior, and you’re about to release them out into the world, hoping you’ve done everything to set them up for success. Maybe you’ve been through this before. Or maybe it’s your last, and you’re about to be an empty nester.

No matter which of those describes your family, here’s one thing we do know. After this year, your family won’t look the same. During high school senior season, there is an emphasis on the senior, but as a Lake Country family photographer, I believe taking the time to honor the whole family is almost just as important. Here's why.

3 Reasons Why You Should Always Include Family Photos with a High School Senior Portrait Session

Here are three reasons we always include family photos with custom high school senior portraits.

1. When your child is out of the house, your family portraits are the perfect reminder of the beautiful life you’ve created.

Letting go and seeing your child move on to the next phase is exciting, yet there’s a grief in that process that’s impossible to deny. While they’re off at college or starting that new job, the wall portrait you walk past every day will remind you of the love you share as a family and all the moments you’ve celebrated together along the way. Your bespoke album will contain the laughter you can still hear and the hug you can still feel. Your family portraits will be a tangible reminder that even as they age and things change, you are still a family.

2. Your family’s dynamic will never be the same again.

Sure, they’ll return home on breaks and maybe even crash with you for a few months after they graduate. But this is the last time your child will live under your roof as a child, the one you raised. This last year is full of just that – lasts – and it deserves to be preserved as a reminder of the man or woman you’ve raised up.

3. Your hard work and sacrifice are worth recognizing.

After all, it’s not always just about the kids, is it? You’ve spent the last 18 years sacrificing so much to give them the beautiful start they’ve had. And while this year is about them, let’s be honest, it’s also about you being seen and celebrated. So, give yourself this gift and invest in portraits that will not only fill their cup, but yours too.

As your child moves toward graduation, we want to celebrate you and your family. For each custom senior portrait session, we will dig into what makes your child unique – their interests, their personalities, their talents, and yes, their family. We will capture every facet of their individuality, creating a capstone experience for their childhood that will remind them of who they’ve been and launch them into who they are becoming.

Central to that experience, we will create stunning family portraits that will serve as part of your legacy as parents and preserve the love and beauty of this season for years to come.
