Once-in-a-Lifetime Senior Portrait Experiences at Courtney Mitchell Photography

Refreshed Senior Portrait Experiences at Courtney Mitchell Photography

Senior year is such a meaningful season, for both students and parents. It marks the end of one chapter and the beginning of another, and senior portraits should feel just as intentional as the milestone itself.

Over the past few weeks, I’ve spent time refining and simplifying the senior portrait experiences offered here at Courtney Mitchell Photography so families can more easily choose the session that fits their senior, their style, and how they want to enjoy their portraits.

The result is a lineup of experiences designed to feel clear, flexible, and truly personal.

Why the Refresh?

Every senior is different. Some want a simple, classic studio portrait. Others want multiple outfits, downtown locations, or a fully customized storytelling session.

The updated senior experiences are designed to meet families where they are, whether they want something streamlined or a fully personalized experience, while keeping the focus on meaningful, finished portraits that will last for generations.

The Essential Senior Session

Just the essentials. Nothing extra. Everything that matters.
This studio-only experience is perfect for seniors who want professional, polished portraits with a clearly defined investment. It includes a short, guided session and a curated set of finished digital images.

It’s ideal for families looking for beautiful senior portraits without extended time or multiple locations.

The Studio Senior Experience

A custom studio session designed to build something meaningful.
This experience offers more time, outfit flexibility, and the ability to design custom artwork after the session. Families who love the clean, timeless look of studio portraits, but want the freedom to create albums or wall art, often choose this option.

The Elevated Senior Experience

Refined, confident, and thoughtfully styled.
The Elevated experience introduces the option of combining studio portraits with downtown Sherman or one carefully chosen location. It’s a favorite for seniors who want variety and an editorial feel while still keeping the session focused and intentional.

The Signature Senior Experience

Our most complete and personalized senior portrait experience.
For seniors who want the full storytelling approach, the Signature experience combines studio portraits with multiple locations, extended time, and fully customized planning. This session is ideal for families who value albums, statement wall art, and portraits that capture every side of their senior’s personality.

What Stays the Same

While the session names and structure have been refined, the heart of the experience hasn’t changed. Every senior session at Courtney Mitchell Photography includes personalized planning, professional posing guidance, a relaxed portrait session, professional editing, and an in-person viewing and ordering appointment.

Senior portraits are never rushed or one-size-fits-all. The goal is always the same, to create images that feel authentic now and meaningful for years to come.

Designed for Artwork, Not Just Screens

One of the biggest priorities behind this refresh was keeping the focus on finished portraits. While digital images are always an option, albums and wall art continue to be at the heart of the experience.

Senior year only happens once, and there’s something incredibly special about seeing those portraits displayed in your home rather than living only on a phone or computer.

Choosing the Right Experience

There isn’t a “best” session, only the one that fits your senior and your family best. Some families want simplicity. Others want variety and storytelling. The consultation is where we talk through those goals and design the experience that feels right.

If you’re beginning to think about senior portraits for the upcoming year, now is a wonderful time to start the conversation.
