Your website is often the first impression potential clients have of you. A well crafted headshot builds trust credibility and should reflect the tone and personality of your brand. One of the key factors to consider is what setting accomplishes this goal.

For some professionals a studio or office setting is appropriate. While others choose to show various aspects of their craft.

This artist picked her home studio for the portrait session.

Showing the products you sell are also important.

Providing a story and showing the space that inspires your work can be a nice message to send.

This Woodgrove high school senior portrait was taken in an open field with tall grass during sunset. The light breeze was a bonus for our session. It provided great movement of her hair and the tall grass.

This image below is iconic Western Loudoun County landscape. I had this senior lean against the bale of hay which helped frame the rustic red barn in the distance.

Golden hour is the perfect time to take your high school senior portrait. We picked three locations for this session. All of them were within a few miles of each other in Waterford, Virginia.

Who doesn’t love cowgirl boots when they are posing for their senior portrait on a bale of hay?

Who doesn’t love images of puppies? This is a recent litter of German Short Hair Pointers. There’s something magical about puppies. Their tiny paws, wagging tails, and boundless energy can brighten even the gloomiest of days.

Its always a challenge to get puppies to line up together.

Standing on slippery paper can be challenging. This puppy looks like he is about to do the splits!

This father looks down at one of his favorite pups in this photo.

This puppy is playing peekaboo over his sisters back.

This is a fine art portrait of the breeders dog.

Feel the love and connection between this mother and daughter! I always tell mom to come photo ready so we can capture some moments together during a high school senior portrait.

At the end of our senior portrait session in Georgetown I asked for mom to pose with her daughter.

We had fun capturing images of them together.

Jennifer Jule Studios specializes in high school senior portraits. Many of our clients choose to add a family portrait session onto the senior session to make the most of their investment.

Making sure to stand tall and relax your shoulders will do wonders for your pose. This makes you look more confident. Your photographer should make some tweaks on how you stand which will give you the results you’re looking for. Many times, its as simple as adjusting your weight from one leg to another.

Other times it’s a tilt of a head or leaning your body against a wall or fence. It might feel awkward or uncomfortable but trust that your photographer knows how to pose to so that your look your best!

Props can also be helpful to use when posing a senior portrait. It gives something for you to hold and not feel so awkward with your hands. This Loudoun County high school senior holds her dress as she looks down over her shoulder. This adds a moodiness to the portrait.

Sometimes the setting gives a hand with a stone wall or a large bolder in a stream of water.

We picked this wild bamboo as a unique backdrop for her high school senior portrait.

Living in Loudoun County we are fortunate to have a wide variety of locations for a senior portrait session. This session was taken at Dirt Farm Brewing in Blue Mount Virginia. Picking a location all depends on the season, outfit choice and vibe of your high school student. Do they want something more urban or rural. I enjoy doing session in D.C.

Vineyards can be a wonderful spot for photos. Particularly ones that offer weddings because their grounds tend to be picturesque.

This senior went for the rural rustic vibe. I love the rusty old gate we used as a prop for her to lean on in this portrait.

When is the best time to schedule your senior portrait session? Spring and summer are both popular times of year. Some seniors want to capture the red buds and spring flowers while others want to develop their tan and take advantage of the flexibility of summer and a more lush setting.

This Loudoun County senior picked a beautiful garden to take her senior portraits. The session started 30 minutes before golden hour. She decided to wear one of the dresses we provide seniors for their session. This is a vintage dress which has some tulle to make it fuller at the bottom. It is also a great dress to twirl around in!

I love how the greenery frames the subject in this image. It almost looks like a painting.

This little boy was full of smiles during his photo session. I just adore being silly and interacting with babies and children.

We managed to get a handful of classic expressions from this little guy.

Don’t you just love the long eyelashes on this baby boy?

Just love the expressions on this toddler.

This pose will always remind mom and dad how small their son was when they had to hold him up to walk.
