Capturing Senior Moments at Sleeping Bear Dunes: Tips for Your Epic Sunset Adventure Session

Hey there, adventurous seniors! If you’re dreaming of stunning senior portraits amidst the breathtaking beauty of Sleeping Bear Dunes, you’re in for a treat. 🌅📸 I’ve had the pleasure of capturing some incredible moments with graduates like Nathaniel, Emerson, and Harsen.

Here are some tips to make your own sunset adventure session unforgettable:

1. Embrace Your Vision: Like Nathaniel, bring your vision to life. Know what you want from your senior portraits, whether it’s the dunes, the water, or both. Communicate your ideas with your photographer.

2. Play with Golden Hour: Sunset at Sleeping Bear Dunes is pure magic. Just ask Emerson. We chased that golden hour light, resulting in photos that glow with warmth and radiance. So, schedule your session close to sunset for that dreamy lighting.

3. Confidence is Key: Embrace your inner confidence like Emerson. Don’t worry about posing – let your natural beauty shine through. Multiple outfits are a plus to add variety to your photos.

4. Adventure Awaits: Harsen’s session at the iconic Dune Climb proves that epic backdrops are everywhere. If you’re up for a little adventure, consider hiking and exploring the dunes for unique shots.

5. Include Loved Ones: Family can add a special touch. Like Nathaniel, bring your parents for some laughter and comic relief. Genuine smiles and heartwarming moments are guaranteed.

6. Mix Up Your Wardrobe: Variety adds spice to your senior photos. From casual tees to cozy long sleeves for cooler evenings, be prepared for all the moments.
