I know, John or Janelle is a great photographer and so is your teacher and cousin, and your friends Mom just got a little digital camera and figures she can practice on you. Yada yada. After all, it's just a yearbook photo, right? WRONG! It's the portrait that will be around forever and should be the best it can be. You deserve it!
Most people have no idea how real professional photographers that have been photographing for years know their stuff.
Lighting usually takes 5-10 years to really get down (if even then), and they offer lots of different poses and backgrounds than just hiring a friend, who doesn’t have pro lighting gear. You want both studio and outside options for a variety of looks.
Plus, great studios will have unique lighting, background and location options, fans, music, extensive Photoshop skills, perfect retouching and printing and products that should blow your mind (and please your parents)!
You should be able to say this about your experience:
“The session was great! I came into the studio nervous and not really prepared, but Mark (the photographer) and everyone helped me out and made me feel very comfortable.
I usually hate getting my picture taken, but the professional environment changed that. I actually enjoyed having my senior pics taken!” - Jessica R.

Why do most Yearbook pictures look like "Yearbook pictures"?
Cloned posing, commercial props, and stagnant studio techniques are a few reasons for similarity and mediocrity in today's school photography. We've broken out of that mold with real world portraits that come closer to capturing the look that teenagers enjoy and will appreciate for a lifetime. Your portraits are captured during custom designed sessions that typically last an hour. The sessions are at our home studio and woodland garden.
You will not get boring, ordinary portraits. Any studio can do that. Your portrait session is taken further to create more interesting, exciting, fashionable, and emotional images that you'll be proud to display forever.
Visit our Web site ( http://www.whiteoconnellphoto.com) and look at our portraits. Then look at your school photographer's pictures. The difference is very clear...and worth it.
