what to expect - senior portraits by casi lea photography



YOU'RE ONLY THIS AGE ONCE
I've been taking senior portraits since 2005 and love every minute of it. My job is to bring out the celebrity, the artist, the athlete, the genius, the fashionista, the skater, the singer inside of you, so you can share it with everyone else.

You're about to experience the real world, relying on your talents to make it big. I want to capture you just as you are, right now, so you can look back on yourself in later years and remember who you were before one of the biggest transitions of your life.

You're gorgeous, you're courageous, and eager to fly the nest. It's the perfect time to dress up and immortalize the moment on camera.


THE EXPERIENCE
A senior session with Casi Lea Photography isn’t just about taking pictures. It’s about developing a relationship together, getting to know who you are, and bringing that out in the form of visual art. I don’t just dress you up, stand you in line and take a few snaps like a traditional school portrait photographer might. I spend time with you. I speak with you. We decide together what your expectations are for your images - and then exceed them. Everything is custom tailored to who you are as an individual. 

I love to create an experience with you that's completely yours. Represents your spirit. What makes you the person you are? What do you love? How do you express yourself?


YOU WILL LOOK YOUR BEST
Even experienced amateurs struggle with the more nuanced parts of portrait photography. Mastery of lighting, hiding undesirable features, and creating radiant skin tones are among the most difficult and most important parts of producing a perfect portrait. When you hire an experienced professional like me, I will put their years of experience to work to create images of you that flatter and look fantastic when printed in large format.


YOUR IMAGES TRANSLATED INTO REAL WORKS OF ART
I hear stories over and over again of clients who’ve taken images of themselves or had a quick, inexpensive session with a photographer and left only with digital images. Photographs aren’t meant to lurk forever on a hard drive; they’re meant to be printed, displayed, touched, and shared. I’ve designed my sessions and packages to ensure that you will end up with stunningly beautiful, last-a-lifetime physical pieces that become family treasures. The products I offer are painstakingly selected from print labs that only sell to professional photographers, ensuring a level of quality you won’t find with consumer-grade print houses. I lovingly hand-retouch each image before it goes to print, sometimes spending hours on perfecting the crop, color quality, and removing any blemishes that might become apparent when the photograph is printed in large format. Your end result is not a gallery of digital images; it’s an album, a canvas, a print - tactile artwork for your home or dorm.
