Summer senior photo location inspo
An old bridge
Bridges are great for perspective, walking shots, and sitting down poses!
A field at golden hour
I’m obsessedddd with long grass combined with golden light, and the trees behind these field shots provided even more layering and depth!
Mountain lake senior photos
Sweeping landscapes are great for social sharing and art prints! I love love love the carefree vibe of these mountain lake pictures.
Taking senior photos at home
Think about taking some senior photos at your home! Senior photos are meant to document this specific season of life, so capturing the home you lived in can be so beautiful. I love that SaDee included her horses in these shots!
Taking senior photos during summer in Montana
Summer in Montana is the most popular season for taking senior photos! Your schedule is wide open, the days are long, the wildflowers are poppin’, and there’s access to everywhere scenic you’d want to go. Summer creates the most vibrant, warm vibes for your photos. I’m all about summer outfits, too! Flowy dresses, wide brim hats, crop tops, linen, sandals, heels — bring it on!
Montana summer senior photo outfit inspo
SaDee crushed it with her senior photo outfits! I love how casual she kept it — she really just looked like herself, which I love!
She leaned into a neutral base outfit and changed out the overshirts! SaDee wore a plain black shirt and jeans, but also had a lacy green flowy shirt and two plaid shirts to change into!
Should you bring multiple outfits?
YES!!! I’m SUPERRRR inspired by multiple outfit changes and I’m honestly really zippy/quick, so we can move through your outfits quickly!

Taking senior photos with your family & pets
Senior photos with your pets
SaDee brought her dog along to her entire senior session, and then when we went back to her house we snagged a few shots of her kittens too!
Senior photos with your horses
SaDee took photos with her horses at the end of her senior session, and I am obsessedddd. They are such pretty bbys and SaDee’s personality really shines around her animals! She is such a sensitive soul and I love love love this photo set with her horses.
Senior photos with your family
If your fam is tagging along during your senior session, you should snag a few photos!! SaDee’s mom and sis were helping with the dogs + horses throughout our time together, so of course I had to grab a few shots!
If you want photos with your family but you don’t want it cutting into your senior photo time, then think about booking a mini-session dedicated to family photos 30 minutes before your official senior session starts.
