Let’s make it easy for you
Why Alice Lin Photography
Choosing a senior portrait photographer is about more than just photos — it’s about trust, experience, and feeling understood. Alice takes a guided and effortless approach, connecting with both parents and seniors before the session to learn about their personality, interests, and vision. Together, we thoughtfully prepare every detail so the session feels smooth and meaningful. The goal is to capture your senior’s true self and preserve this important stage of life in a way that feels natural, timeless, and memorable.
What if it feels awkward?
You don’t need to be a model or have any experience — that’s my job. I’ll guide you step-by-step through poses, expressions, and movement, helping you relax and feel confident in front of the camera. The session is designed to feel easy and natural, not stiff or forced. We’ll capture not only a great photo for your yearbook, but also images that truly reflect who you are at this moment in your life.
Frequently Asked Questions
When should I book my senior portrait session?
Studio sessions are available year-round and offer the most flexibility. If you’re planning outdoor senior photos, the most beautiful seasons in the Boston and Greater Boston area are late spring, summer, and early fall. Fall (September–October) is the most popular and books quickly, so it’s best to reserve your session 2–3 months in advance.
High school seniors often have busy schedules, and weekend dates are in high demand. Booking early — or considering a spring session — is a great way to secure your preferred date.
Can we include family photos in the senior portrait session?
Yes! A family add-on is available for senior portrait sessions. Many families choose to include a few family photos during this milestone year, making the session even more meaningful.
Should I choose a studio, outdoor, or combination session?
Each option offers a different look, but the studio + outdoor combination session is the most popular choice. It gives you the best of both worlds — clean, timeless studio portraits and natural, lifestyle images outdoors. This option provides the most variety and allows you to fully capture your personality and style.
What should I wear for my senior photos?
I recommend bringing three outfits: one formal outfit (perfect for yearbook photos), one casual outfit (to reflect your everyday style), one outfit that highlights your passion (sports, music, or other interests), this combination creates a well-rounded gallery that feels both polished and personal.
Can I include sports or music in my session?
Absolutely. You’re encouraged to bring anything that represents your interests or achievements. I offer specialized sports and musician portraits, and my studio includes a piano for those who want to incorporate music into their session. These elements often create the most unique and meaningful images.
How long is the session and how many photos will I receive?
Most sessions last about 60–90 minutes, depending on the package you choose. Final images are professionally edited and delivered digitally, with different packages offering a set number of images to fit your needs.
