Do a search online for senior pictures and look at those to get some ideas!. also, I am assuming you know the correct way to pose a person depending on there face shape, ears, nose and all of that right!? I would use a solid backdrop of either black or white!.!.!. that's pretty classic for senior portraits and the white is really in right now!. As for the environmental portrait it can be done outside at any location that is pretty!. Make sure the lighting is set up right for the white backdrop and use a reflector outdoors to bounce light back under the eyes and I guess you know to shoot early or late day but not mid-day because of the harsh lighting!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I would love too be a photographer
I Think maybe you should get different backdrops relates too what you a picturing and different angles!. Maybe Ones from above and ones from you kneeing on the ground and some for the side and different angles like that!. I Think you have a great opportunity and i hope it goes well!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I like to find in interesting back ground as a beginning, suppose if you use a blue back ground you could superimpose afterWww@QuestionHome@Com
