Graduation is a time to celebrate a momentous accomplishment and all of the memories you made while at college. What better way to remember your time at Miami than with graduation photos? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019ve already shared our top most Instagrammable spots on campus<\/a>, but there are plenty more things to keep in mind while arranging your senior photos and we\u2019ve got some ideas for how to make the process as smooth and enjoyable as possible. Here are some great Miami options for photographers and advice to keep in mind while scheduling a session. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Examples.<\/strong> The best piece of advice to follow as you look for a photographer is to request examples of their photos. Many photographers have their own style and editing strategies, so if you like their previous work, you\u2019ll probably like the work they do for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Session length.<\/strong> Pay attention to how long you\u2019ll be with a photographer. An hour seems like a long time, but it can actually go by really quickly, especially during graduation season where there might be lines at popular locations, such as the sundial or Upham Arch. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Timeline.<\/strong> Ask for a timeline of photos and how many you\u2019ll get. Some photographers take months to deliver photos, which might not be the best if you want to post them for graduation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Booking.<\/strong> Make sure you book your photographers in advance! Many local photographers will be booked by the time graduation rolls around. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Cap and Gown.<\/strong> You may want to order your cap and gown early through Brick and Ivy\u2019s online store so that you have it for photos if you schedule in mid or late April. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Instagram. <\/strong>Check out the #MiamiOHgrad hashtag on Instagram to see photos posted by grads in previous years. Consider reaching out for the name of the photographer if they aren’t tagged or named.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Ask for recommendations.<\/strong> Join local Oxford Facebook groups or NextDoor and ask for recommendations.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Grab a friend.<\/strong> If you don\u2019t want to go the professional route, grab a friend who has a good camera and\/or recently took a photography class.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n Still not sure where to start?<\/strong> Here are a few Miami-related photographers who have done grad photos in the past or who are open to doing them in the future. Of course, you should always do your own research before booking anything; Miami doesn\u2019t endorse any particular photographer.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\nWhat to Look for in a Photographer<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
