Senior Portraits
 

I have been looking around for a photographer to take my senior portraits, and I've found quite a few I am interested in. What is the average cost of senior portraits, though? The session fee and the actual package one would order? Please let me know what you think. Thank you.

Since people don't use phonebooks anymore, you can try Googling "photographer" and "my town". Or ask other people in your class who they are using.

(hoping that I haven't fed a troll, if so...:o)

Some of us old fogeys do. :p

(And her location says Raleigh, Mississippi.)

It depends on where you get them done. They will probably be more expensive if you go to someone in Jackson or Meridian. It will also depend on how many photos, poses, outfits etc. you would like. It would be best to just call the photographer you are interested in and find out.

Oh come on, you guys.

I bet that some brand-spanking-new GCer is going to come to April's aid quite quickly in this very thread, and even provide a link!!

And yeah, I still use a phonebook. I sure as hell am not going to turn on my computer just to look up a phone number. That's ridiculous.

That's what I thought too...hence the disclaimer.

You know she's literally going to include "my town" in the search criteria :rolleyes:

Don't schools tell you where to get your senior portraits done? Mine did.

You mean, you turn it off?

It's a sad day for humanity :(

Believe me, that crossed my mind.

My school told us where to go, but some schools let the students choose. Although, I'm not sure how coming to an anonymous message board is going to help that much.

Preach.

Also, I can get online on my phone, or text Google Local or call 1800GOOG411 which, since it's google, still counts, imo. (Also it's free 411)

This is all new to me. We always had a photographer come to the school.

But what do I know -- I turn my computer off too. :p

I also shut down my computer. I know that I don't have to, it's just a break from hibernation.

I use phonebooks if I don't have a computer or Blackberry handy, which happens. My parents only use phonebooks.

Our class pictures were all the school photographer, but 'everyone' went and got senior pictures done and passed them out/signed them etc. All you do is go to a local photographer in town, usually they have a display at the mall with family/senior/wedding pictures.

Also I think that means you're old :p

Do you want to be dead to me now? :p

I've seen those displays at the mall, but I don't recall seeing senior pictures among the offerings. Recent high schoolers among our family/close friends haven't done it. (Never heard of signing pictures, either. You sign yearbooks.)

I wonder if it's a regional thing that hasn't spread here yet.
