Seniors: Don't Settle For Bland!


SENIORS-

Did you know that you don’t have to settle for the standard graduation announcements? As the school year moves along you will begin to see information on ordering graduation invitations and announcements sent home through your school.  Most people don’t realize that these standard invitations aren’t the only option!  We can create something beautiful and eye catching that really speaks to your personality instead of something bland. 



Yes, it is possible to give up the traditional boring invitations without sacrificing the quality.   Time and consideration is really the key.  Our process begins when you come in for a consultation to discuss your interests & any ideas you might have about what you are looking for in a portrait.  Your senior session will be tailored to you, and we will craft your portraits to suit your personality.  With the resulting images in hand, we can then work to create outstanding announcements that will really make you shine. 



Your high school graduation is one of the most important days of your life- don’t settle for just the minimum.  Don’t wait until the last minute to have your announcements made and get stuck with the bland, generic option.  Call Siobhan Fine Photography at (281) 807-5282 to schedule your session and get the process started.  You will be glad you did!

2016 Seniors - It's Prime Time!


Congratulations on beginning your senior year!  Now that Summer is over and the heat will start to fade, it’s time to think about senior portraits.  As the weather evens out and the temperature gets cooler, we are entering into prime time for your outdoor portrait session! 

Siobhan Fine Photography offers a combination of indoor studio and outdoor time for a session that is molded to your personality and tastes.  Cooler and less humid weather means less sweating and less frizzy hair!  In terms of the subject’s comfort, this time of year is the most suitable for outdoor portrait sessions, which means it is also a very busy time for the studio!

To ensure you will be granted your desired appointment date and time, be sure to call the studio well in advance.  We invite you to give us a call at 281-807-5282, visit our website (www.siobhanseniors.com) or our Facebook page (Siobhan Photography) or jut come in to the studio to have a look around.  We look forward to speaking with you soon!

Cost Versus Value


     There’s a disturbing rise in the popularity of portraits taken by “professional” photographers with little to no training. This day and age, anyone can buy a camera, put up a website and call themselves a photographer.  By offering “on location” only shoots and promoting “natural light” portraits only, photographers are able to cut out a lot of overhead costs, but at what price?  It's not always the case, but no studio location and no lighting equipment tends to indicate a lack of formal training, and it also rules out half of the portrait experience you deserve.  Scenic outdoor shoots with natural light are beautiful, but we would prefer to give you that PLUS something more.  We don’t just understand lighting (which it is often necessary to supplement, even in outdoor shoots with “natural light”)- we paint with it.
 
Photo editing programs and filters can only carry you so far with a photograph that is not properly lit. Take a look at a few of the examples from the PPA below :



Like the PPA says:
"If you think it is expensive to hire a professional, wait until you hire an amateur."
