2020 was quite the year, but not in the way that any of us had imagined when it began. Rather than the exciting year we all had planned, we sheltered in place, wore masks, sanitized, quarantined, and found new ways to manage our daily lives in the midst of a global pandemic. The event industry was hit so incredibly hard, with most of us losing nearly our full calendar of weddings and events. It was a punch to the gut every time we read about another small business that had to close down because they were not able to weather this seemingly never-ending storm.
Rosanio Photography Senior Booking Guide {Massachusetts & New Hampshire Senior Photographers}
Picking the right spot can be difficult and is very personal for each student. We always try to offer lots of different options so we can help find the right spot for each of them! When deciding where to go, I always refer back to what your Senior’s interests might be. Maybe they love going to the beach, or going for hikes, maybe they spent countless hours in the library devouring books or even longer on the ice rink. It is so important to tailor each session to your Senior to make sure that their photos reflect their High School career and the things that they loved along the way.
