Studio or Outdoor: Your Choice
Some seniors love the polished, timeless look of a studio portrait. Others want their pictures taken outdoors against the backdrop of Tucson’s warm desert light. Many choose both.
Studio sessions are ideal if you prefer a controlled environment with perfect lighting. Outdoor sessions capture Tucson’s incredible scenery, from the rugged mountains to the sunlit desert.
