Summer Is the Perfect Time to Schedule Your Senior Portraits
Did you know that most schools require senior portraits by November? It is true. D60 & D70 require following year seniors to pick their yearbook photo just after heading back to school.
Why does this matter? Well, summer is just around the corner and that means this is your last summer before photos will be due. This means if you want those beautiful golden sunsets, and those amazing mountain views, this is the time to get on our books and schedule your senior session.
Here are three big reasons why summer is an amazing time to book your senior photos (and why Lepik Photography might be the perfect fit for you.
You’re Way Less Stressed in the Summer
Let’s be real—once school starts, your schedule turns into a chaotic mix of classes, sports, clubs, and trying to find time to sleep. Summer? It’s way more chill.
No tests. No deadlines. No trying to squeeze in a photo session between AP Chem and marching band practice. You’ve got the flexibility to schedule your session at golden hour, pick your dream location, and actually enjoy the experiencewithout feeling rushed.
Bonus: The slower pace means we can plan the shoot around your vibe—whether that’s exploring downtown Pueblo, running through a field at sunset, or chilling at your favorite coffee shop.
2. Hello, Gorgeous Weather & Golden Light
Colorado summer? It’s a whole vibe.
Think blue skies, golden grass, wildflowers, and those chef’s kiss sunsets. We love summer sessions because the light is warm, dreamy, and absolutely flattering. And with longer daylight hours, you’re not racing the clock to finish before it gets dark.
Plus, summer outfits hit different. Sundresses, casual jeans and tees, favorite sneakers—this is the season to show off yourpersonal style with confidence. You won’t be freezing in a jacket like fall sessions or battling wind like in spring. Just you, feeling amazing in your element.
3. You'll Be Ahead of the Deadline Game
Let’s talk logistics for a sec. Most high schools in Pueblo and Southern Colorado have senior photo deadlines in November—but photographers book up fast. By getting your session done in the summer, you:
✅ Have more availability to choose your ideal date
✅ Get your photos back in time to pick your favorites
✅ Avoid the stress of last-minute scrambling
And hey, once it's done, it's done. That means you can head into senior year with one major to-do item already checked off. Feels good, right?
