Last Chance: Your Senior Year Moment, Captured Forever

Spring and summer graduations are just about over, and a new season is quickly to arrive. If you missed getting your senior pictures taken, now is your last opportunity of get them done before fall begins.

Your senior year is like no other; it represents endings and beginnings. Professional photographs are the perfect way to capture this moment for a lifetime. Photographs tell the story of your life – stories that you will want to share again and again with friends and family years down the road. Don’t miss this chance to encapsulate your special senior moment in a magical photo that you will cherish for many years.

You can schedule an appointment at Mirasolo, and bring your creative ideas with you. Senior pictures are no longer just about standing or sitting in a cap and gown, and smiling for the camera. Your senior photo can be formal, whimsical, active, sporty or any way that feels comfortable for you. Our goal is to bring out the real you!

Graduation time is one of our proudest moments, and though it is a personal celebration, it is also a family celebration. They too, want to be able to remember this auspicious time in your life when the future was completely in your hands and they could see it in your smile.

With Mirasolo Photography, you can trust that you will have a senior photo that will bring this moment alive again, no matter how many times you view it!

Celebrate the Coming of Fall with Our Country Kids Collection!

With nature providing the most beautiful scenery, we’d have to say that autumn is an absolutely gorgeous time for taking photographs. The fall foliage and warm colors become the perfect backdrop for a memorable photo session and it’s no secret that children love this particular season; Halloween, apple picking, hayrides and pumpkin carving are just a few fun activities our kids enjoy during this mystical season.

Mirasolo Photography is celebrating the coming of fall with our Country Kids Collection on September 19^th, 2013. This will surely set the scene for great photography – with a barnyard setting of chickens, roosters, fresh apples and haystacks, it is a treat for the children as well as the entire family!

The Country Kids Collection gives kids the opportunity to get away from the formal attire that is usually associated for professional photos, and allows them to be relaxed and not-so-stiff. What’s even more, asking your photographer to capture a few candid photos of your children enjoying all of the usual fall finds is a fun and often beautiful way of capturing their youth and innocence. The country setting is very suited to casual, spontaneous, and playful photographs.

Families can get as creative as they would like. These themed events, like the Country Kids Collection, are a perfect time to show up with your imagination and unique ideas. At Mirasolo Photography, we specialize in capturing the playful spirit of the children we photograph and bring our clients’ imaginative ideas alive in our work.

Stay tuned to our events calendar for other upcoming fall season events, such as October’s Pumpkin Patch Kids Collection and November’s Toys for Tots Holiday Collections series, which is one of Mirasolo’s most popular seasonal events!

How to Utilize Websites like Pinterest for Portrait Pose Ideas

If you have already made arrangements for your family portrait or are considering scheduling an appointment to have your family photo taken, you might be contemplating how it is going to look, what your family should wear and most importantly – how you are going to pose.

When it comes to posing for family photos, there are many options. You might want something traditional or you might be looking to go with something a little more fun and quirky. No matter your decision, your photographer will certainly have ideas that will correlate to your preferences. However, it never hurts to do a bit of research on your own.

Just like with everything else, the web is a great place to begin your research of different poses for family portraits. There are endless websites specializing in different family photo examples and ideas. Pinterest is a great place to start your web search. This website is great when it comes to sharing ideas about a vast range of topics, including family portrait poses. You could simply “click” the photography category or narrow your search by searching for “family portrait poses” or something more specific to cater to your preferences. Print out samples of portraits you like and compile a folder.

You can bring these examples to your portrait session to give your photographer an idea of the direction you would like to go in. Here at Mirasolo Photography, we will then be able to use your ideas and our expertise to create a beautiful photograph that you will be proud to show off!
