Your senior session should feel exciting, not stressful — and a little prep goes a long way. One of the biggest ways we help our clients feel confident on session day is by making sure they know exactly what to do (and what not to do).
So let’s break it down: Senior Session Prep — Do This, Not That.
DO hang each outfit on its own hanger and steam everything the day before your session.
DON’T cram your clothes into a duffle bag and hope for the best.
DO schedule a trim or color refresh about a week before your session.
DON’T go for a major cut or brand-new color right before photos.
DO exfoliate and moisturize your lips nightly the week leading up to your session.
DON’T show up with dry, chapped lips and expect Photoshop to work miracles.
DO get a mani/pedi with a soft, neutral polish a few days before your session.
DON’T arrive with chipped polish or bold colors that clash with every outfit.
DO bring inspiration photos for your hair and makeup artist.
DON’T assume they can read your mind — visuals make all the difference!
One of the things our clients love most about the AGP experience?
We don’t just hand you a date and send you on your way.
Every AGP senior receives a welcome packet + client hub packed with downloadable prep guides, styling tips, and timelines — so you feel calm, confident, and fully prepared on session day. No guessing. No stress.
