With one of the few remaining indoor photography spaces remaining, we like to make sure we do it right.  Studio portraits are an important piece to the whole package we offer.  Its not hard to take a person outside and photograph them under a tree, add a little photoshop and call it senior portraits.  Studio portraits using professional lighting, backgrounds, and correct posing is a lost art.  Have we mastered it, never…  It is always improving and changing so we change and improve along with it.  Studio sessions are available with all our Senior portrait packages.

Senior Portrait season has started and away we go.  This young lady did a model session for us earlier this year and we had a ton of fun.  Tomorrow kicks off a number of sessions over the next couple of weeks.  There is still plenty of room for us to photograph your senior portraits.  http://mpseniors.com

The Waterfall where we photograph seniors is one of the coolest places I have the awesome privilege to photograph.  The fun you can have when playing in a raging waterfall makes taking senior portraits easy.   This young lady traveled from Allendale to have us take her Senior portraits.

Many guys don’t think is cool or fun to get their senior portraits, but Modern Photographics will put an end to that.  Our studio makes its comfortable for any guy to get his senior portraits taken.  We don’t coo over  you, or make you pose like a girl.  We laugh, talk sports, talk games, talk about cars, or whatever it takes to talk about what the guy wants to talk about.  I had to have my senior portraits taken twice so I understand what it takes to be a guy’s photographer.

Tips to keep guys comfortable

1.  Be yourself allowing them to be themselves – Don’t be fake, the guys will see right through you

2.  Treat them like they are your buddy, not like a little kid

3.  Pose them like guys.  Guys usually don’t have grace, so don’t ask them to pose them like a girl, once they feel that they are posed like a girl, they are goners.

4.  Build trust.

It does not matter what her style is, we want her to shine.  Each girl wants to be unique when it comes to their Senior Portraits.  By getting to know who you are we are able to make your portraits personalized to who you are.

From time to time we get to add live props to the portrait.  This group of sisters is special.  They are a close family that plays hard and has a lot of fun together.

Every year I get to photograph a handful of seniors at our legendary waterfall.  Senior Portraits are fun when you add water.  2010 is going to be an even better year for waterfall shots.  As we add even more cool and unique ideas my mind will be flowing with the next great idea.
