Why Book Your Senior Session Early

Are you wondering if it's too early to book your senior photos? The answer is a resounding NO! In fact, there are numerous benefits to booking your session early.

At Mariela Ryan Photography, we typically book out 3-6 months in advance. This allows us to properly prepare for your session and ensure that it goes smoothly and isn't rushed. If you're hoping to schedule a session for spring, contact me in the winter and if you would like a Fall session, contact me in the spring/summer.

Here are just a few reasons why booking early is the best choice:

• You'll have a better selection of dates to choose from.

• You'll have more time to prepare for your session, including choosing the perfect outfits and scheduling hair and nail appointments.

• In case of any unforeseen circumstances, such as rain, family emergency, illness, or pandemic closures, you'll have plenty of backup dates to choose from.

• We'll hold a fashion consult with you 2-4 weeks before your session, giving you the opportunity to pick up any last-minute items you need to complete your looks.

• Planning is an important part of the Senior Experience at Mariela Ryan Photography. We want your input and encourage you to start a Pinterest board full of ideas for your senior pics. Pin colors, poses, locations, hair, makeup, and outfit ideas to help us create a session that's tailored to your vision.

• You'll also have the chance to plan your hair and makeup in advance, eliminating any stress on the day of the session.

These are just a few reasons why booking early with Mariela Ryan Photography is so important. Don't wait – contact us today to get started on your custom senior portrait session!
