Be sure to bring layers for your outfits, or jackets to wear while you walk around, because the weather in St. Louis can be unpredictable in the spring. Some days are warm while others can be chilly. You want to be prepared for any situation. Light and breathable fabrics will help keep you cooler on the more humid spring days. You can start with a light base layer then add a jacket, sweater, or cardigan for warmth. Layers that are easy to take off are best so that you don’t get too hot if it’s a warmer day, or easier to put on in case it gets a bit chilly. Plus, these layers help change up your outfits a bit during your session and can even double as props.

When it comes to your spring senior pictures your outfits should be comfortable, stylish, and weather appropriate. Be sure to show off your personality and have fun with your outfits. You should feel like yourself during your session, so only pick outfits that you love and make you feel confident.
