During our wardrobe consultation we will discuss all of your ideas, plan out outfits, and choose location ideas. We also leave some wiggle room for what we are known for...creativity. Sometimes we stumble upon the best photo ops on the fly, so we ask that you trust us. Sometimes we will ask you to pose in a way that feels weird, or climb up on top of something. Hey, we didn't say being a model was easy, we just promise amazing results at your ordering session. Just relax and have a blast. Your Senior pictures are a day to remember all you have accomplished and celebrate!
When you book your Senior pictures with DCCP, the day is yours. That means no rushing! Need a break? No problem. Thirsty? Let's grab a latte. We want your day to be a day you will never forget. That is why we give you time to relax in our space before your shoot starts, and give you all the time you need to feel like the model you are while shooting.
We have no limits on outfit changes, and most Seniors get through about 5-6 head to toe outfit changes before we wrap for the day. If you have something specific you are wanting to do (i.e. get wet in a lake) we will save that look for the end of the day or shoot it on a separate day.
We are on the list for select local high schools. However, the "yearbook headshot" is not what we want your session to be about. We prefer to spend your day with DCCP focusing on the creative images we are known for, without any rules or timelines. (and let's face it, the good stuff!) We also customize grad announcements, prom photos, and more. Need help with this part? Just ask!
Senior pictures are typically shot the Summer after your Junior year. However, many seniors prefer to shoot in Spring or Fall and that is fine with us. We can schedule your shoot for anytime you prefer, or break it up into a few smaller sessions. We will help you plan!
We all know that living in the Mid-west means that we have zero control over the weather. However, we have you covered! We keep a day open every week for reschedules in case of weather issues. If it is too cold, hot, rainy, or any other weather debacle, we will let you know in advance and work with you on a new date.
At DCCP we want the day to be yours. We typically start hair and makeup in the morning, and head out on location until we know we have an amazing portfolio of images for you. We ask that you keep your day clear to have maximum flexibility for our ideas, but we are typically completed with a senior session by 2pm.
Wardrobe is a big deal around here! We will schedule a consultation with you and help you find the best looks for your shoot. We want to help you prep for the runway instead of the everyday. We like to prepare you with at least four to five different looks, but have had some seniors bring ten! The choice is yours.
Your session fee is required to hold your date, and includes your senior photo shoot day, and an in-person Premier Image Reveal. Images and photo products are separate from the session retainer. We offer several collections that include heirloom quality photo products and high resolution digital images to fit a variety of needs. Professional hair and makeup is also encouraged for an additional fee determined with your stylist prior to your shoot.
At DCCP you can expect to be challenged, and guided right outside of your comfort zone. You can expect a once in a lifetime experience, a stunning makeover, and a bonding day with a parent. You can expect to see the most amazing photos that you have ever viewed of yourself when it is all over. You can expect to want every image we show you, and heirloom quality products to document and preserve this experience. Oh, and you can also expect two new friends!
Your makeover begins with a visit with one of our professional hair and makeup artists. Our hair and makeup artists have been trained professionally and have also been educated on the perfect makeup and hair for our portrait sessions and lighting. After getting your input, our experts will create a photo worthy look for you while you relax. (Like the true model you are) Our stylists are also available before your photoshoot for cuts, color, waxing, and any other salon needs in the weeks before your shoot date.
