5 Reasons Why Senior Portraits with Photography by S.delaBastide Are Unforgettable

Let’s be real—senior portraits aren’t just some cute pics for Instagram. They’re your chance to freeze this incredible moment in time before life gets crazy with college, jobs, and, well, adulting! You’ll look back at these photos and remember who you were at this huge milestone. So yeah, senior portraits? Kinda a big deal!

Lucky for you, I’m here to make the whole experience not just painless, but downright fun. At Photography by S.delaBastide, you’ll get an experience that’s all about YOU—your style, your vibe, your story. Here’s why working with me will give you unforgettable senior portraits:

1. You Get a Custom Experience, Not a Cookie-Cutter Shoot

I’m all about making this experience as unique as you are. We’ll start with a pre-session chat where we talk all about your style, favorite spots, and any wild ideas you’ve got. Wanna go bold and edgy with an urban city backdrop? Downtown Orlando is perfect, and I’ve got plenty of hidden gems to make your session stand out. Prefer something a little more serene? Oviedo’s natural parks and open spaces are perfect for a laid-back vibe. And of course, if you’re all about the beach life, we can make that happen too!

2. Wardrobe Panic? I’ve Got You Covered

If you’ve ever stood in front of your closet like, “I have nothing to wear,” don’t worry—you’re not alone. I help with styling, whether you’re into the latest trends or looking for something timeless. We’ll scroll through Pinterest, Amazon Lens, and even dig around in the client closet if we need to. By the time we’re done, you’ll look and feel like the star you are.

3. Urban, Nature, or Beach? You’ve Got Options!

The beauty of living in the Orlando area is having so many cool spots to choose from. Want that sleek, city-chic look? Downtown Orlando has the perfect mix of industrial backdrops, murals, and modern architecture. If you’re more into nature, Oviedo’s parks and open spaces will give you that relaxed, earthy feel. And if the beach is calling your name, we can head to the coast for those iconic beach shots—just keep in mind there’s a travel fee for that extra sun and sand!

4. Posing? No Worries—I’ve Got Your Back

Even if you think you’re awkward in front of a camera, I promise we’ll find poses that work. I’ve got tricks to help you feel natural and confident, so you won’t end up with stiff, forced smiles. It’s all about capturing the real, awesome you, and I’ll help make that happen without making it weird.

5. Photos You’ll Actually Want to Show Off

After the session, I’ll work my magic behind the scenes, carefully editing each shot to make sure you’re looking your absolute best. No over-editing here—just natural retouching that keeps it real. The end result? Photos that’ll have you saying, “Wow, that’s me!”
