On Location Senior Photos in Port Deposit, Maryland

I had such a great time working with this talented and lovely young woman during our split studio and on location senior portrait session in Maryland. Since she is a singer and musician, we had some fun with props that were related to her talents as well as doing some of the more edgy fashion photos to show off her rockin dresses.

We stepped outside the studio and into the garden for some lovely images that matched the dress and pearls.

You don't have to travel far for some fun on location senior portrait images. This one was taken on a patio. 

Our next on location senior photo shoot was the waterfront in Port Deposit, Maryland.

Port Deposit is famous for its granite.

Senior portrait sessions are often split between the studio and on location because moms and grandmoms still want a few traditional drape shots.

Since we were already in the studio, I grabbed some vintage sheet music (Yes, I just have random stuff like that in the prop closets...) and we got some fun shots that were a tribute to this talented senior's singing ability.

When she pulled out her favorite sheet music of all time, we grabbed a few close ups.

I like to complete a senior portrait session with this shot - standing in the middle of the road to symbolize the fact that childhood is behind her and she is ready to begin the exciting and challenging journey into the rest of her life.

Well, class of 2012, this lovely young woman is my last senior from your year! Time to say congratulations on an amazing accomplishment. You've worked hard for 13 years to get to this spot, from Kindergarten finger painting to 12th grade English term papers. I couldn't be more proud of the young men and women who are on their way to moving Cecil County forward for the next few decades. I wish you all success (and a bit of fun!) as you begin the next phase of your life, whether it is college, vocational school, or a new job.

Junkyard Beauty Portraits - Fashion Glamour Photography in Maryland

Earlier this year, I had a chance to do an on location beauty portrait shoot with a lovely model in an amazing junkyard. Makeup by Ren did the makeup and hair. Gretchen Johnson Glam did the styling. This summer, during the week of July 23rd, I'm teaming up with Ren to do a week of on location fashion glamour photography in the Cecil County, Maryland, Harford County, Maryland, Newark, Delaware and Chester County, Pennsylvania area.

During this week, makeup is included in the Basic, Standard and Deluxe session packages. In addition, you receive two lovely little accordion albums and $50 off the package of your choice.

Here's a look at Ren's beautiful makeup job and some of the fun fashion style beauty portraits we ended up with!

I am limiting the number of sessions to be sure you really get the one on one attention and pampering you deserve. (Class of 2013 seniors looking for special outdoor senior portraits that have a fashion edge are also welcome to book a beauty session.)

Outdoor Senior Photos in Cecil County, Maryland

When you combine a lovely young woman, a gorgeous waterfront location and some stunning outfits, there really is only one possible outcome - a beautiful set of outdoor senior photos. We had a great time, saw a brood of baby geese and their very protective parents and discovered some great places for the on location half of our Maryland senior portrait session.

One of my favorite things about Port Deposit is the amazing local granite used on many of the historic buildings. You can't beat the lovely texture of these amazing walls for a unique and fun photo backdrop!

The best senior portraits take advantage of special local features, such as Port Deposit's granite.

I love finding structures that help frame the person I am photographing. These vertical posts really anchor the image.

You can't go wrong with a beautiful blue sky that matches your senior's lovely flowing shirt.

Moms and grandmoms want a big smile, but I also like to get a few contemplative, quiet shots and poses.

It isn't a unique senior photo shoot without some edgier poses.

Maryland senior portraits by the water don't need a lot of props. 

If you are in the Class of 2013 or 2014, I am currently taking applications for next year's KTP senior model program. If you are accepted, you'll get a completely free mini photo session, a video slideshow of your photos to share with everyone, some awesome rep cards and edgy, fashion style photos for your facebook page. Models who successfully refer friends for senior photos can earn full portrait sessions with professionally styled hair and makeup, graduation announcements and more.
