Photo Session Ideas

Typical photo sessions are always fun, and you definitely need to capture those milestones with great pictures. But you don't have to have a milestone event to plan a session. It's really fun to do photo parties with friends, glam sessions, or playdates with your kids just because! Here are some ordinary and some out-of-the ordinary, fun events you can plan.

27 Dresses Glam Session
LADIES, we all have a special spot in the corner of our closet that stores them. Cute, simple, glam and colorful. I’m talking about the bridesmaid dress. The one that every bride promised you could wear again. If you’re like me, most likely you haven’t worn them to any other occasion, but still appreciate the memories you have from the day you strut your stuff in it. Why not get a group of your good girlfriends together for an afternoon of fun? Pull out those bridesmaid dresses and strut your stuff one more time! It just so happens that bridesmaid dresses look great in photos, especially a colorful mix of different gowns.

In honor of the forgotten bridesmaid dress, all chick flicks, and a fun afternoon with friends, plan a 27 dresses glam session with your best gal pals. The session includes an on-location photo shoot in the Grand Rapids area and a 5x7 photo for you and each of your friends.

Session Fee: $45 per person, four person minimum
Includes: On-location photo shoot in Grand Rapids area, 5x7 for each group member and unlimited online use of your favorite photos
