woods + co. SENIOR SESSION GUIDE
congratulations.
You. Did. It.
You’ve put in the time. You’ve put in the work. Now let’s kick off your last hoorah with a killer photo session!
You’re not hiring some old fuddy duddy behind the camera to snap a bunch of cheesy poses. You’re getting someone who can read the room, understand what works best for you, and knows their stuff when it comes to photos. Every one of my seniors leaves their session feeling confident in their own skin.
I created the following guide to give you an overview of what it’s like to work with me and to share more information about the collections and optional add-ons I offer. If you have any additional questions after reading through it, please don’t hesitate to reach out!

WHERE TO GO for your senior photos
Stumped on where to take photos for your senior pics? These are a few of my favorite local places to take photos at!
INDIANA STATE
ISU’s campus provides a lot of great opportunities to use for photos. Some of my favorite spots include Normal Hall, College of Education, the rotunda near 3rd street, and of course the fountain. If you are currently attending or will be attending here, we can incorporate your major’s building in a few of the photos!
YOUR SCHOOL'S CAMPUS
You’ve spent the last 4 years here not only hitting the books but carving out your identity as an individual. It only feels right to incorporate your home away from home. Let’s go to the football bleachers, down to the dugouts, or out in front of the signage to capture one last hoorah!
STATE PARKS
Turkey Run State Park is a goldmine for photos, and how lucky are we to have it right in our own backyard? Let’s go hike some trails, cross the suspension bridge, or go take a dip in Sugar Creek. Any place you go, you’re bound to score great photos. If you're planning on using the state park as your location, we can do a full 2 hour session here.
DOWNTOWN
Terre Haute has a broad range of locations for photos. From historic brick alleys to parking garage rooftops, the urban atmosphere adds an edgy vibe to galleries. Downtown Rockville is a smaller, quieter alternative that does great as well!
FIELDS and CREEKS
Whether it’s a freshly bloomed sunflower field or a calm creek, these are my go-to locations for senior photos during the warmer months. I always like to make sure these Parke County spots are easily accessible for us to get to.
FREQUENTLY ASKED questions
Q: WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS?
A: I will be in communication with you via text/email in case of rain to reschedule for a later date that works for both of us.
Q: WHEN WILL I RECEIVE MY PHOTOS?
A: Senior sessions have a turnaround time of up to 3 weeks from the session date.
Q: DO YOU DO ANY RETOUCHING/PHOTOSHOP?
A: Sure do! Say goodbye to blemishes and any acne. I like to keep things as natural as possible (because there is one and only you!), but things such as blemishes are always touched up.
Q: DO I HAVE TO BRING SOMEONE ALONG FOR MY SESSION?
A: It's a great idea to bring someone along with you for your senior session. An extra set of hands to help carry outfits, hold onto props, or help with makeup is always appreciated.
Q: HELP! I DON’T SEE THE LINK TO MY GALLERY IN MY EMAIL. WHERE CAN I FIND IT?
A: Sometimes technology does us dirty and sends things where they’re not supposed to go. If your link does not show in your primary inbox, try checking your spam folder. As always, shoot me a text or an email if you’re still having trouble and I would be more than happy to help!
Q: DO I HAVE TO ORDER PRINTS THROUGH YOU?
A: Prints are not required to be ordered through Woods + Co. However, I do offer a convenient online store with several, high quality options available. If you are printing, I suggest going through a professional photo lab to ensure quality!
Q: CAN I INCORPORATE ANIMALS IN MY SESSION?
A: Absolutely! It's always wise to have a backup plan for photos that your animal is not going to be in. Make sure to bring a kennel in the back of the car or have someone tag along to take them for a walk.

kind words
“We couldn’t be happier with the senior pictures Liz captured of our kids! Her talent, patience, and eye for detail made the entire experience so enjoyable. She created such a comfortable and fun atmosphere, which really brought out genuine smiles and natural poses. The final photos are absolutely stunning, and we will cherish them forever. If you’re looking for a photographer who is professional, creative, and wonderful to work with, we highly recommend Liz (Woods + Co. Photography)!”

tips + tricks
Don't forget extra clothes and some slip-on shoes if we are doing photos in the creek during the warmer months. Having a towel on hand to dry off is also a good idea. Trust me, you don't want to be sopping wet on your ride home!
