Senior year goes by fast — let’s capture it with images that feel authentic, confident, and timeless.

👉 Book your Vermont senior photography session with Sacha Smith Photography today and create images you’ll be proud to share and cherish forever.

Most Vermont seniors book their session spring through early fall of junior or senior year, with July–October being the most popular months for outdoor portraits. I recommend booking 2–4 months in advance to secure preferred dates, especially for fall foliage season.

Senior sessions take place at scenic locations within approximately two hours of Franklin County, VT, including parks, lakes, downtown areas, and natural Vermont landscapes. I help each senior choose a location that fits their personality — whether that’s rustic, modern, outdoorsy, or urban.

I provide outfit guidance before every session to help seniors feel confident and camera-ready. Most seniors bring:

• Casual outfit 
• Dressy outfit 
• School or sports uniform (optional)
• Neutral tones, layers, and textures photograph beautifully. Avoid large logos or distracting patterns.

Yes — 100%. Seniors are guided through posing that feels natural and flattering, so they never feel awkward or unsure. I balance gentle direction with candid moments to capture both confidence and personality.

The number of images depends on the package you choose:

• Mini sessions start at 10 edited images 
• Full experiences include 75–200+ edited images 

All images are professionally edited and delivered in both color and I also offer black & white where appropriate.

Photos are delivered through a secure online gallery, where families can:

• Download high-resolution digital files 
• Share with friends and relatives 
• Order professional prints, canvases, albums, and gifts
• The gallery makes it easy to preserve and share senior photos.

Senior galleries are delivered within 2–3 weeks of the session. Each image is carefully selected and edited for consistency, color accuracy, and storytelling.
