Tinkerbell’s Graduating! Ellie’s Senior Portraits at Epcot

The tradition of taking senior portraits is such a fun way to help teenagers-turned-young-adults launch themselves into their adult lives. It’s a snapshot of who they are at this time in their lives so they can look back on this stage for years to come, so I always make a special effort to infuse each senior’s photos with their personality.

That was no challenge during Ellie’s senior photo session. This incredible young artist from Arkansas made every minute of her portrait session a blast!

Ellie loves both Epcot and Disney, so naturally, we combined the two for her senior photos. We took her portraits on the beautiful grounds of Epcot while Ellie was DisneyBounding as Tinkerbell. If you’re not familiar, DisneyBounding is basically a way of fusing Disney cosplay with “normal” clothes. It’s all about recreating a Disney character’s look using regular clothes so that you’re mirroring the look but in a subtle way so that no one would know from a glance that you were in character.

Ellie chose a gorgeous green dress and some beautifully glammed-up boots to DisneyBound as Tinkerbell. With her creativity and artistic sense, Ellie nailed it! We made sure to get plenty of pictures of her twirling around and truly embodying that magical Tinkerbell energy.

The beauty and variety of Epcot allowed us to create senior portraits with a variety of backgrounds and styles. We have picturesque plant life, colorfully painted murals, rock walls, the Epcot globe, and of course, a classic “Class of 2023” cap.

If you’re looking for a way to make your senior portraits special, I’m here to help. Contact The Canovas Photography today to book your senior photo session at Epcot, Disney, or any of the other beautiful locales in the Orlando area.

Beauty Worthy of a Fairytale: A Senior Photo Shoot at Disney World

A Senior Photo Shoot at Disney World

One of our favorite aspects of the photography we do is that we get the opportunity to meet people at some of the happiest and most exciting junctures of their lives. It’s always fun to do senior photo shoots, for example, getting to know these amazing young people and hearing about their dreams for their futures.

That was certainly the case for lovely Isabelle. She’s a senior in St. Louis, MO, who was thrilled to visit Disney’s Magic Kingdom for her senior portraits. She knows exactly how to embrace the Disney spirit, even donning a few pairs of specialized mouse ears that perfectly fit her sweet personality.

Throughout Isabelle’s session, we made sure to feature all of her Disney favorites in her senior pictures. We captured portraits in front of Ariel’s boat, Cinderella’s castle, and more. We absolutely loved the photos in front of the ornate Cinderella mosaic.

Of course, the start of these portraits was Isabelle, not Disney, so we created plenty of picturesque moments that made sure Isabelle was front and center. Some of the solid, bold-colored backgrounds make Isabelle’s smile and her precious yellow dress stand out. Among our favorites, though, would have to be the classic portraits we took of Isabelle in front of an old-world wooden door and alongside stone pillars, with minimalist details accentuating her gorgeous smile.

To make the memories of Isabelle’s senior portraits even more special, we made sure to highlight that Walt Disney World was celebrating its 50^th anniversary during her photo session. Her fun and playful photos in front of the “50 Years of Magic” marquis will stand as a reminder of her graduation year that she can look back on forever.

If you have a high school senior and you want to make their senior portraits special, the Disney World parks could be the perfect locale. Book a senior photo session with our Orlando-area photo studio today or call us to learn more.

Palm Trees and Perfection: Lovely Senior Portraits on Hontoon Island

Lovely Senior Portraits on Hontoon Island

Senior portraits are meant to capture a sense of who a young adult is as they emerge into the world of self-reliance and begin the journey of their career, whether they’re going to college or entering the workforce. Sometimes this involves choosing a special locale, creating elaborate backgrounds, or implementing props like sports equipment and musical instruments. In Emily’s case, it was all about simple beauty.

Emily is from DeLand, Florida, and if you aren’t familiar, DeLand has plenty of beautiful scenery that’s perfect for photography. For Emily’s senior photos, we chose the stunning Hontoon Island, State Park.

Emily decided to keep it simple for her senior portraits with a single casual outfit, but it was a perfect choice for the location. The natural greenery was a beautiful backdrop that served to highlight Emily’s breezy nature and her classic beauty. The wind did us a favor and we were able to get plenty of fantastic portraits that highlight her lovely blond hair flowing in the wind.

Even with the focus on simplicity, we were able to incorporate a fun variety of photos into Emily’s senior portraits. With dramatic posed photos that used shadowing to highlight her statuesque figure along with plenty of lighthearted shots of her subtle smile, we had the pleasure of bringing Emily’s many sides to the surface.

This photo session was also uniquely fun because it allowed us to play with a few more creative and adventurous photography techniques. The portraits peeking through foreground leaves turned out to have precisely the mystique we were aiming for, and Emily did a fantastic job with posing throughout the session.

Whatever it is that you have in mind for your senior portraits, whether you’re envisioning a natural outdoor backdrop or something especially unique like the Disney parks, we’d love to make your vision a reality. Contact our Orlando-area photo studio today to book your senior portrait session.
