Senior Portrait Top Photographer!

Award winning photography studio

Each year I set goals for my photography business. Each year I enter in a few senior portrait images into a prestigious photography contest with the best of the best from all over the globe and the competition is fierce. I have earned awards from my peers and honorable mention from the judges last year, but this year I made the Top 100 Best Photographers List! Thrilled to see my work being acknowledged as one of the best senior portrait photographers in the world. I also earned a Community Choice Award from my peers this year! So excited to learn which image submitted won the awards later this month which I will post in a few weeks when it is published internationally in the Senior Style Guides Top 100 Magazine.

Thank you to all of the senior portrait customers from around Wisconsin and nearby states that have trusted me to capture their beauty through my lens. I feel honored you have chosen me as your senior photographer. Allowing me the creativity to capture artistic senior portraits that I am sure my customers will cherish for years to come. It is truly an honor to photograph dozens and dozens of high school seniors each year and be recognized for my creative work. Senior portraits are more than just beautiful headshots, they are pieces of art that capture my customers in a very important stage of their life. Their senior year! I can only hope that these senior pictures remind them of their youth and capture their beauty, leaving the with more confidence and pride as they take on the next chapters of their lives.

Senior Picture Ideas

Best Senior Pictures

Many seniors from the the Class of 2023 have come from various Wisconsin high school, near and far. So fun to photograph in and outside of our Waunakee photography studio. I truly appreciate those they chose K Jay Photos for their senior portraits, an award winning Madison WI Photographer. The photography studio, located just outside of Madison, WI, specializing in senior portraits, was buzzing with energy this past summer. So many wonderful high school seniors with a variety of passions and interests. Each senior, beautiful in their own way, allowing me to capture their beauty through my lens. What a treat.

Most popular question to our photography studio when booking senior portraits, what should we bring? Often our senior portrait customers have spent most of their childhood years practicing a hobby, sport or other interest. Our Madison WI photography studio always encourages our customers to bring along props to define those passions. To capture just a few senior pictures with those props, in most cases, does not take much time for the the photographer to include in the senior portrait session.

What to Wear and Bring

One of the most popular question asked when booking the senior portrait session is what to wear and bring? Here is a list of suggestions we offer to our high school seniors:

  • Clothing that is comfortable and flattering (whether sitting or standing)
  • Face powder to remove any shine that humidity and heat may cause.
  • Hair brush and hair spray, especially for windy days.
  • Most important a confident expression, preferably a smile

Often the photos with props are our customers favorite senior pictures. Sometimes, just getting in hand a volleyball for example, helps relax the high school senior for example that doesn’t like to have their portrait taken. Plus they end up with some cool sports senior portraits too! So don’t forget the sports equipment that has been an important part of their life.

Here are just a few of my favorite photos from the summer of 2022. K Jay Photos can help you capture this important time in your high school seniors life. Book your senior portrait session today with K Jay Photos Photography. http://www.kjayportraits.com for 2023 package information for high school senior photography options and don’t forget, share what you are passionate about in your senior photography session.


Bring on 2023

Wow! What a year/ Thank you to all of the families and now friends who have trusted me to capture your senior portraits through my lens. I am incredibly grateful to pursue my passion for photography and that you chose me as your high school senior photographer. It’s more than just great senior pictures but a great experience I hope you found as well. This is such a special time for your high school senior and so important to document.

What to wear in your senior pictures?

We often hear our customers ask “what should I wear in their senior pictures”?  KJay Photos Photography in Madison, WI specializes in high school senior pictures.  We have partnered with Francesca’s Collections in West Towne Mall who assist our female senior portrait customers in selecting the right outfits for their senior pictures.  We even have a Francesca’s discount coupon for our senior portrait customers!  Ask KJay Photos for details when reserving your senior portrait session.

Sammie, one of our 2013 Senior Reps, took advantage of this service.   She set an appointment with Francesca’s Collections and showing them samples of KJay Photos work.  Samples of other photos taken in the same setting where her senior pictures would be taken.  This helped Francesca’s Collections select just the right outfits out for Sammie.  See for yourself below.

Francesca’s noticed when Sammie arrived that she was a very fashion forward fun young lady.  After talking with her they got a chance to see her unique style noting that she enjoyed bright neon colors with fun patterns.  They chose outfits that were perfect for the settings that we photographed Sammie in offering a nice collection of solids colored clothing and prints.  The jewelry was kept simple with a pair of statement earrings and no necklace keeping the focus on the face in the portrait.  Sammie left with several outfits that she wore during her senior portrait session  but also outfits that were summer staples that can be worn all season long and into the next few years.
