Do Guys Do Senior Pictures?

Absolutely! And they should!

Senior pictures aren’t just for girls. In fact, more guys than ever are getting in front of the camera to capture this major life milestone. From athletes to creatives, scholars to future business leaders, senior pictures for guys are about marking this moment in time and showing up as your authentic self.

Jaden’s shoot is proof that you can be confident, laid-back, professional, and cool all in the same session.


What Should Guys Wear for Senior Pictures?

The best outfits are the ones that reflect your personal style—but elevate it just a little. For Jaden, we wanted to give variety without overcomplicating things. He rocked:

  • A clean, casual look perfect for outdoor shots

  • His senior hoodie to represent school pride and his graduating class

  • A more polished outfit in-studio that could double as a professional headshot for future resumes or LinkedIn

Tip: Stick to solid colors, layers, and textures. Avoid loud logos or busy patterns unless they’re intentional and meaningful. And always bring 2–3 outfits to give you options!


How Should Men Pose for Senior Pictures?

Posing doesn’t have to be awkward or overdone. For guys, we go for confidence, posture, and presence. For Jaden’s shoot, we used a mix of:

  • Casual standing and walking shots outdoors at Forest Park near the Art Museum

  • Seated studio poses for a clean, editorial look

  • Relaxed leaning and movement shots that felt true to his personality

The goal is to keep it natural while giving just enough direction to bring out your best angles.


What Looks Best on Senior Pics?

For guys, what looks best is what feels comfortable and confident. Great lighting, sharp wardrobe, and clean backgrounds always help—but what stands out most is authenticity. With Jaden’s shoot, the combination of MD Studios and Forest Park gave us both polished and personal vibes.

Pro tip: Neutral tones, natural light, and a location that means something to you can elevate your entire session.


Jaden’s Story

Beyond the clothes and camera, Jaden’s story speaks volumes.

He’s a student-athlete who’s made his mark on and off the field. He participated in Varsity football, track and field, and serving as the basketball team manager. He’s also a young changemaker, co-founding both the Diversity Club and Black Student Union at Chaminade.

With plans to major in Accounting and become a Certified Public Accountant, Jaden’s ultimate goal is to become a Chief Financial Officer—and it’s clear he’s already walking in his purpose.
