When you’re pressed for time, taking your own senior photos might seem like a good idea. While this will always be an option, keep in mind that you’re losing out on professional equipment, guidance preparing for your shoot, during your shoot, and editing thereafter.
When it’s so easy to take out your phone and take a good photo, you might be wondering whether it’s really necessary to hire a professional photographer for your senior photo session. Most smartphones have some impressive cameras and they’re great for capturing your everyday moments with friends and family to post on Instagram. However, your phone won’t quite hit the mark for your senior portraits. Chances are, you’re not going to get the photos you’re hoping for, which is why it’s better to set some time aside with a professional.
