Senior Portrait Session at St. Johns Bridge
How was this St. Johns Bridge senior session planned?
This St. Johns Bridge case study documents a Portland senior portrait session built around the student’s interests in esports, casual style, and sports management. A morning schedule, three wardrobe changes, natural direction, and balanced ambient and flash lighting created a varied gallery for verified senior-year uses.
The project translated several real interests into distinct portrait looks while keeping the bridge environment, light, wardrobe, and expression visually consistent.
