Senior Shoot in the City with Jasmine, Columbus Ohio

Oh my gosh this girl! I knew from the first time I met her several years ago, I would love working with her when her time came. She's vibrant! She is a girl that knows exactly what she likes and what she wants. She's fun and up for anything. She knows her style and how to make it all work for her! My goal for a session is to always shoot a lot of variety but Jasmine knocked it out of the park. We went from classy and elegant to gritty grunge in an instant. Soft and feminine to sassy in the city. Her session is so diverse and all shot in one block. Her makeup is stunning and made all her features pop with little to no retouching. Thank you for trusting me, Tatum and the process, Jasmine. Your session is beautiful and I know you will treasure it for years to come!

Tell me about your Senior Session Day! What was the best part?
My senior session was magical! I loved how professional it felt and it felt like an amazing experience to have. The best part was the location had so much variety to match my outfits!
What was your biggest fear for your session? Do you feel differently now that the session is done?
I feared that my lipstick wouldn't show in the pictures or face away throughout the day, or the outfit getting water spilled on it or something. Now that the session is done, I can confirm that the lipstick stayed the entire day, even when drinking water! I was also provided with some of the same lipstick in a travel size lipstick tube with a cute little wand. I also loved how quick the outfits were and Claudine knew exactly what poses to do so I didn't really have time to spill water on myself. Lol!
What was most important for you to get out of your shoot?
I wanted the experience but most importantly, I wanted pictures that I could look back on and show my future family and friends.
Tell me about your style! What inspired your outfit selections?
I wanted lots of variety because I am not a simple girl. I love all styles of clothes, hair, makeup and nails, and I wanted my outfits to reflect that I love all things. But I know that I wanted each one to have a good pop of color and to make me feel beautiful!
What was your all time favorite photo?
My favorite photo is definitely the one where I am leaning against a lamp post. With the city in the background and the trees to the right it really make me stand out. I also love how it's a close up shot of me.
Do you have any tips or advice for other seniors for their Senior Portrait Session?
Do not be afraid of makeup! Tatum, the makeup artist, is very professional and she will use those strong nude colors to bring out your natural beauty, but making you look bold and beautiful at the same time! I also recommend that you be prepared to change in the car (if that does happen) to walk, and to bring a bag with essentials that you may need.
Would your parent like to add any comments about your session day?
Claudine just found the perfect location for what Jasmine wanted, and the outfits that she chose. It's so fun to work with Claudine. It's easy too because she understands you and it's great because she would do anything that you want and she goes along with your preferences and the flow of what you want for your shoot. There's never a bad picture!!
What drew you to Claudine Kosier Photography?
