Senior Session Welcome Guide


Welcome
We’re Excited to Work With You

Thanks for booking your senior portrait session with KenMar. This page gives you a simple overview of what to expect, what to bring, and where to find helpful information as your session approaches.

Nothing complicated. Nothing overwhelming. Just the essentials — plus optional links if you want to explore more.

Your senior year is a big moment. We’re here to make this part easy, comfortable, and meaningful.

Your Session at a Glance

Location: 1120 N. Hickory Farm Ln – KenMar Studio + Photo Park
Session Length: up to 2 hours depending on session choice
Outfits: Bring at least 5 different looks you feel great in
Props: Anything meaningful is welcome
Weather: We adjust and adapt as needed
Comfort: Todd guides you through everything — posing, expression, pacing

You don’t need to “know how to pose.” You don’t need to “be photogenic.” You just show up — we’ll take care of the rest.

Quick Prep Checklist

A few simple things that make the day smoother:

  • Choose outfits you genuinely feel good in
  • Bring a variety (casual, dressy, something fun or personal)
  • Avoid last‑minute hair changes
  • Keep makeup natural and true to you
  • Hydrate, sleep, breathe
  • Arrive a few minutes early so we can settle in

This isn’t a performance. It’s a relaxed, guided experience.

Your “About You!” Form (Required)

Before your session, please complete this short form:

About You! (Tell Us Your Style & Preferences)

This helps us understand your personality, your style, and what matters to you — so your session feels natural, comfortable, and true to who you are. Parents appreciate it. Seniors appreciate it. And it helps us create portraits that feel authentic.

If You Want More Details (Optional)

Some people like to read everything. Some people like to show up and wing it. Both are perfectly fine.

If you do want more information, here are helpful links:

  • Senior Start Here — full overview of the senior experience
  • Senior Session Options — indoor, outdoor, or both
  • Senior Girls / Senior Boys — style ideas and examples
  • Photo Park — our private outdoor space
  • Senior Gallery — real seniors, real sessions
  • Prep Guide — extended preparation tips
  • Senior Pricing — simple, clear, flexible

Everything here is optional. Nothing is required.

What Happens After the Session

After your session, we’ll meet for a guided ordering appointment. This is where you’ll:

  • see your images
  • choose your favorites
  • explore print and product options
  • get expert help without pressure or confusion

Most families choose a curated package, but à la carte options are available. Finished artwork is delivered with care — the same way we’ve done it for decades.

A Few Final Thoughts

Senior portraits aren’t just pictures. They’re a snapshot of who you are right now — before everything changes again.

Our job is to make the experience comfortable, fun, and meaningful. Your job is simply to show up as yourself.

We’ll make something good together.
