 The tween years are filled with challenges—navigating new emotions, discovering self-identity, and feeling caught between childhood and the teenage world. It’s a time when confidence can waver, and the need to feel seen, valued, and celebrated becomes so important.  As parents, you may remember how awkward and uncertain those years felt. Now, you see your child grappling with those same feelings. That’s why our Sparkle and Shine sessions are more than just portraits—they’re an opportunity to remind your tween of their worth and uniqueness.  Through these sessions, we capture your child’s true personality—whether they’re silly, thoughtful, bold, or a mix of everything that makes them special. These moments are designed to show them just how amazing they are, at a time when they might be questioning their place in the world. For you as a parent, these portraits are a celebration of who they are right now—a glimpse of their individuality and spark.
Let’s help your tween see themselves the way you do: as someone who truly shines! Your senior session should be all about you! The photos we create together will tell your unique story, showing off your interests, achievements, and future dreams. So, how can we make that happen? Bring along what’s meaningful to you—whether that’s your favorite outfits, your pet, sports gear, or even your car!
One of the most popular add-ons? Bringing your vehicle! Getting your driver’s license is a huge milestone on your journey to independence, and your car can say so much about who you are. Maybe you’ve dedicated years to multiple sports—let’s capture that passion! Or perhaps horses or pets are a big part of your life—let’s include them in the fun. Maybe you've played an instrument--let's show that. Maybe you have a hobby you love--let's see it!
When you’re a Robyn Adair senior, my goal is for you to look back on your session images and see your story come to life. This is your moment to celebrate everything that makes you, you! While my favorite part of a senior session is always the actual shoot, I have a special love for the reveal when I show the images for the first time. As a parent, I know how the day-to-day can keep us focused on the present. But during the reveal, you see your senior in a whole new light—on the cusp of adulthood, poised at the beginning of countless new experiences, opportunities, and adventures. It's hard to believe that the little one you just dropped off for their first day of kindergarten is now ready to take on the world (though they may still text you to ask if colors and whites go in the same load of laundry!)  Reactions from clients range from, “Oh wow, this makes it real!” to “I can’t believe it’s already their senior year!” or simply, “Beautiful!”—often accompanied by a few tears. I know I’ve done my job well when I see a mom or dad get a little misty-eyed.  As a parent myself, I vividly remember so many of my daughter's high school "lasts": her last choir concert, last cheer competition, last award ceremony. To all the parents of the Class of 2025 seniors, hang in there—you’re in for a rollercoaster ride of emotions! But it’s also a joy to see how much they’ve grown and matured. Here’s to a fantastic year—make every moment count!
One of the benefits of hiring a professional photographer is our expertise in editing your senior portraits. Before your image reveal, I carefully edit each photo to ensure it’s ready for final products. From color correction to blemish removal, and even brightening teeth and eyes, every detail is perfected with a light touch. My goal is to enhance your natural look or beauty while preserving your authentic self in every shot! This editing expertise, combined with professionally printed products, ensures you will treasure your senior portraits for years to come! Watch below to see a short video of some of the editing process! My love for photography started early—I was around 9 or 10 when I got my first camera, a Kodak Instamatic 104. It used film cartridges and those cube-shaped flash bulbs that were all the rage back then. With that camera in hand, I captured everything: our dogs, the flowers in our garden, scenic views from family trips, and especially our horses. When I went to college, I discovered the magic of the darkroom and began shooting sports for the college yearbook. Armed with my dad’s Canon AE-1, I felt like I had found my true calling.  As a young mom living in Colorado, my passion for photography grew. I couldn’t resist capturing every moment of my daughter’s life, and soon I turned that passion into a business.
I focused on photographing not just children but also horses and pets, traveling across Colorado and the Midwest to cover horse shows and contribute to regional and national equestrian publications. While I loved the thrill of the road, over time, I found myself drawn to something more personal—senior portraits. There’s something magical about capturing that pivotal moment when a young person is on the cusp of adulthood, with their whole life ahead of them. Being part of that milestone is a privilege that continues to inspire me every day! Curious about what happens during a senior portrait session? In this post, I will take you behind the scenes, detailing the entire process from start to finish. I’ll walk you through how I prepare, and how I ensure a relaxed and enjoyable experience.  My senior sessions begin with a pre-session consultation where we talk about locations, time of day for your session, what kind of products you are thinking about getting and we can do a wardrobe consultation! Ask questions, look through my portfolio to see what approach you’d like to see in your session & final prints. If you’ve found great inspiration, bring print-outs or websites along. I am also happy to start a Pinterest board where we can collaborate on ideas for your session! The second step is the shoot–the day is finally here! My goal is for everyone to have fun, relax and enjoy the process! I will demonstrate poses for your senior and will be checking to make sure hair and outfits are looking great. While most locations have places to change clothes, I also provide a changing tent just in case we don’t have that availability!  The third step is the image reveal. After your session, I will have color-corrected and lightly retouched your images and posted a couple of sneak peeks. About 2 weeks after your session, we’ll meet again to reveal your session images! During the image reveal, we look at what products you have decided on and I help you design your app and/or album (if that is a part of your order). The final step is delivery of the products you have ordered, which I deliver to your door!  Knowing what to expect can help ease any nerves and make your senior’s session something to look forward to!
Summer is winding down and my fall schedule will be limited to weekends–CALL to book your senior session today! Senior portraits are a rite of passage, capturing a pivotal moment in your senior’s life. These photos are more than just images—they're a collection of memories and a celebration of milestones. We are celebrating achievements, marking the transition to a new chapter, and creating keepsakes that you and your family will cherish for years to come. Investing in quality portraits is an investment in your senior’s legacy.
So, should you hire a professional to capture the start of your senior’s big milestone? Absolutely! As a professional photographer, I bring an artistic vision, approach and creative eye that can’t be bought at the electronics store with the latest digital camera! I look for unique ways to show off your senior. Even in less than optimal conditions, I have the knowledge and experience to create images that will showcase your senior at their best. I also edit and retouch images to reflect your senior’s authentic self.
