Celebrate Your Achievement in Style
At BigMike Photos, we believe every milestone deserves to be captured with pride and artistry. Your graduation portraits are more than just photos, they’re a reflection of your hard work, your personality, and your journey. Our in studio sessions provide a relaxed, professional setting designed to make you look your absolute best.
What to Bring
Graduation Attire
Bring your gown, cap, and any academic accessories such as tassels, hoods, or stoles. Be sure to iron or steam your gown before your session for a polished appearance.
Outfit Options
Choose an outfit that complements your gown and suits your personality, think of something timeless. A collared shirt, dress, or blouse in solid colors works best under studio lighting.
Personal Items
Add a personal touch with medals, certificates, or items that represent your achievements, a diploma cover, sports gear, or instruments.
Preparing for Your Session
Hair & Makeup
Keep your look natural, clean, and camera ready. Avoid overly shiny makeup or glitter. A quick touch up kit, brush, powder, or blotting paper, can make a big difference.
Grooming Tips
A neat shave, trimmed beard, or styled hair adds to your confident look. Bring hair spray or gel for any last minute adjustments.
During the Session
You’ll be guided through a variety of poses, from traditional portraits to creative angles that highlight your confidence and individuality. We’ll make sure you feel comfortable, relaxed, and expressive in front of the camera.
Expect a blend of formal shots in your gown and modern portraits that showcase your personality beyond graduation day.
After Your Session
Within a few days, you’ll receive access to a private online gallery to view and select your favorite images. Each selected photo is professionally retouched and delivered in high-resolution, ideal for printing, framing, or sharing online.
Print and digital packages are available to fit your needs, from wall art to digital downloads.
