How much do senior photos cost on the North Shore?

Senior sessions at Tricia Yoshii Studio start at $550 and include ninety minutes, one location, up to three outfits, and [X] or more edited images. Most senior photographers in Glenview and the surrounding North Shore towns fall between $550 and $950, and the number of images you receive is usually what moves the price.

How long does a senior session take?

Ninety minutes. That is a deliberate choice. A four hour session with hair and makeup is a real option in this market and some seniors want it. Most want to be done, look like themselves, and get back to their Saturday.

When will I get my senior photos?

A sneak peek within 48 hours and your full gallery in two weeks. You will have something to post the same week we shoot.

When should we book senior photos for the class of 2027?

Book by early summer for August through October dates. Those months have the best light on the North Shore and they fill first. If you need a yearbook submission, work backward from your school's deadline and give yourself four weeks of cushion.

Where do you photograph seniors?

Anywhere within 25 miles of Glenview, which covers Wilmette, Winnetka, Northbrook, Deerfield, Kenilworth, Glencoe, Evanston, and Chicago's north side. Gillson Beach, the Glen, and downtown are common. So is a senior's own backyard.

Can my parents and siblings be in the photos?

Yes. Add thirty minutes at the end for $300, or book the senior plus family session and save. Most senior families do this.

What if I hate having my photo taken?

Most seniors say this. It is the reason I direct the whole way through and show you the back of the camera as we go. You do not have to be photogenic. That is my job, not yours.

What should I wear for senior photos?

Two to three outfits you already own and already like, plus one layer. You will get a full style and prep guide when you book.

Branding Sessions

A headshot should look like you on a very good day. A branding session goes further. You, your space, your process, and the details clients fall for before they ever meet you.

Fifteen years in marketing and creative, ten of them leading rebrands, campaigns and full website builds. I know which images a business actually uses, and which ones sit in a folder.

Most photographers will hand you ninety beautiful frames. You will use four. I would rather build you sixty you will actually put to work.
