A COMPLETE OVERVIEW OF THE SENIOR PORTRAIT PROCESS
BOOK YOUR SESSION
It's pretty simple, click one of the BOOK NOW buttons on the site. You will be redirected to my booking calendar, click on the session of your choice, pay your deposit, and you are locked into a date!
TELL ME WHAT YOU LOVE DURING YOUR CONSULTATION PHONE APPOINTMENT
Once you’ve reserved your date, and paid your down payment, we will have a pre-session phone consultation. During your consultation appointment, we will discuss ideas, answer questions, select locations, and create a plan that’s just for you.
FEEL AND LOOK AMAZING AT YOUR SESSION
On the day of your session, you will look and feel your best. During your session, we will be choosing outfits, showing you how to pose, having fun, and creating amazing images, so that we can have a variety of styles to choose from. After your session, you will receive a professionally designed gallery that you can look at and choose your images.
CHOOSE THE RIGHT PORTRAITS FOR ORDERING
You will see a gallery of your session/sessions and you will be able to select the very best images to make up your print order or your digital image order. If you choose a print order, they must be picked up at the studio. Prints will be available for pickup 7-14 days after placing an order. Digital images will be delivered 7-10 days after choosing an order via a download link through email!



SENIOR PORTRAIT FAQS WITH JOE WICKERSHAM STUDIOS
WHAT COMES WITH A SESSION?
Unlimited Outfits, Unlimited Time Frame and Unlimited Locations, Time in front of the camera, editing time, travel time, your online gallery, prints, or digital images. Any specialty locations will incur a small travel fee, but other than that, all of the above is included!
WHAT IF IT RAINS?
If your session is rained out, you will receive a new date as close to your session as possible.
HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD I BOOK?
I tell everyone to book at least 5 or 6 months in advance. I am usually sold out of weekends first. With my current schedule I only do 5-6 sessions during the week.
WHAT'S THE MOST POPULAR SESSION TYPE?
I would suggest a combination of outdoor and studio portraits. If you only want to do your yearbook portrait in the studio and the rest outdoors, that's fine as well.
WHEN SHOULD I PLACE MY ORDER?
As soon as possible after your shoot, you will see your portraits within 3-4 days of your session, I highly suggest you order all your images and not wait until they are needed in a rush. January and February are my slow periods so if you are going to order, I highly suggest ordering during those months! During the lab's busy times, orders can take up to 4 weeks to receive. The holidays, spring, and fall are the lab's busiest times of year.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO RECEIVE MY ORDER?
A typical session will take 7-14 days to receive your images back from the portrait lab. I send out all my portraits to the best photo lab in the country and they are busy. Digital Files take 7-10 days from the day you place your order. I use only the best lab in the country that preserves your memories which will last a lifetime. If your order has sports composites or other images requiring hours of editing work, orders can take up to 3 weeks. Rarely is that the case but also ordering pictures in a rush period (before school starts, before school ends, or during the major holidays) sometimes delays the delivery of orders.
