How to choose the right season for your senior photos
This is the million dollar question when a senior books with me and believe me I get it! You want the perfect backdrop that fits your style but sometimes that means planning in advance since seasons only last for a set amount of time unless it’s summer in Austin because that feels like forever, right? My answer is always the same and also never the same, because it really comes down to you. Austin doesn’t hand us four clean, distinct seasons the way other places do. We get bluebonnets in March, a stretch of real heat that lasts most of the summer and half of fall, one golden window if we’re lucky, and a few weeks cold enough for a jacket. Figuring out where you land in that calendar has as much to do with your personality as it does with the weather itself.
Some seniors want the soft, mild light of spring, before SXSW and prom season take over every weekend on the calendar. Others are drawn to the long golden evenings of summer, even knowing that means shooting through the heat. A lot of my fall seniors are chasing that first real cool front and an excuse to finally wear layers, while my winter seniors love the quiet, string light energy that comes with the holidays. There’s no wrong answer here, just the season that actually feels like you.
