Fall color photography - senior pictures in Reno, Nevada

2011-09-26T15:23:00.000-07:00

The fall color season is rapidly approaching and many high school seniors have already reserved photo shoots with LSN during the best times! We still have some availability but we don't anticipate that we will for much longer, so call NOW to schedule your once in a lifetime senior portrait experience with PPA Master Photographer Steve Ellison of LSN Studios!

We know that you have several choices for your senior portraits - our clients understand and know that you can't go back and be a senior later - and that's why it is so important to select a competent, experienced professional to create your senior images. Friends can take your picture for fun and for sharing online, but only trust something this important to a professional photographer that REALLY knows light and how to manage it, how to pose you without making it look awkward, and to treat each image with post-production that is second to none! These are photos that you'll want to share with family and friends, and portraits that parents will have on their walls for possibly the rest of their lives.

Portrait collections start at just $189! Combined with our no-interest installment plan, there is no reason that you can't afford to decorate your home with portraits of your loved ones! What are you waiting for? Call now!

Senior Portrait alternatives

2011-08-22T17:20:00.000-07:00

Even if your school tells you that you have to go to a certain company for your yearbook photo, they can NOT tell you where you can have your senior pictures done. Occasionally the yearbook companies will imply or misrepresent that they are the "official" photographer, and that you need to go there. Be assured that you still have the freedom of choice for your senior pictures! Don't confuse your yearbook mug shot and the senior portraits that you'll be proud to share with family and friends!

Conner came in today - we've been photographing his family for years, and he's the last of three siblings coming to LSN for their senior portraits!

Another great reason to come to LSN is that you'll always get Steve creating your portraits. Connor's brother and sister were both photographed by Steve, so everybody's portraits will have the same style. When you come to LSN, you'll never get the "new guy"!

Fall color family pictures / portraits in Reno, Sparks, and Lake Tahoe Nevada

2010-10-03T14:54:00.001-07:00

Now is the time to reserve your fall color photo shoot with LSN Studios! Families, children, couples, individuals and pets! Hiring a professional photographer is the smartest investment you can make for the preservation of your family history. Our photographer Steve is a Master Photographer as designated by the Professional Photographers of America, and he has thoroughly studied how to make your portraits the best they can be. He has advanced skills in lighting and posing, and has the facilities to produce images of unparallelled color and clarity.

Steve fully appreciates the wonder of nature in the autumn months, and has spent countless hours hunting down the best locations for portraits - no matter when your portrait shoot is in the fall - we know where the color is the best.

Some portrait clients like a traditional pose - Steve is an expert in designing images that don't appear "pose-y". Other clients appreciate a more natural, emotional expression in their portraits - images in which the subjects are inter-relating with each other or with nature - again Steve has done it all in our 18 years in business!

Some people are tempted to set up a camera on a tripod, set the self-timer, and call it good. Others will happen upon a less-experienced person to take a family picture. While these options are fine for vacation photography or other situations in which a professional is not available, only a professional should be used for images that will hang on your wall and those that will be kept and cherished by your own family. A nice camera does not make someone a great photographer. To illustrate, a grand piano in your front room does not make you a great pianist. You wouldn't have someone cut your hair just because they have a nice pair of scissors, or work on your car because they have a good set of wrenches. A camera is only a tool, and Steve is the craftsman with the credentials to put it all together for you.

Our clients have remarked to us that having our portraits on the wall is akin to owning pieces of fine art. So many people decorate their homes with art prints of places they've never seen, possibly featuring people they don't know in settings that might not exist at all! How much better would it be to decorate your home with beautiful images of your family in a setting that is local and familiar to you?

Fall color sessions typically sell out each year, so call now to arrange for the best available time! Getting your photography done in fall also means we have ample time to produce your portraits for the holidays!

In-studio photo shoots are certainly available as well for those that like the idea of having complete control over the lighting and weather! Our studio facility is zoned for commercial purposes - so be confident that you will be provided an appealing and professional environment for the creation and selection of your images!

Our portraiture is priced on an a la carte basis, so you only purchase what you need - there are no packages that we obligate you to.

More sample portraits are on our website.

Senior portraits in the snow

2010-02-22T16:53:00.000-08:00

February is an interesting month... just a week ago we were outside photographing in shirtsleeves! Then came the snow. Luckily for Brittnee, she had her winter session lined up, and the scenery couldn't have been more perfect for senior winter portraits!

One of my favorite images from Carmen's senior portrait session yesterday!

White Stuff!

2009-12-07T17:09:00.000-08:00

OK, so it's not news if you live in Northern Nevada. We got white stuff!

And in honor of Pearl Harbor Day, we'll fly the flag here at Steve's Blog...

Mount Whitney

2009-11-30T14:12:00.000-08:00

Here's our view of Mt. Whitney this past week. The highest point in the continental US, it's best viewed at sunrise as seen here, unless there's some spectacular weather event occuring later in the day. I hiked the treacherous trail to the top in 1992. If I can track down the image of me on the summit, I'll post it here!

Hey! Here they are, circa 1992... Here's myself and my cousin at Trail Crest. We actually went up the backside of the mountain, entering near Independence, CA, then came down the front side. There are intrepid souls that will go up and down the face in one day. I am not one of those crazy people! ;-)

Here's me at the summit...

Gift Certificates for the holidays!

2009-11-17T15:57:00.000-08:00

Our gift certificate program returns again this year - it's the best way to get more bang for your buck (which would be a good name for a band.)

Certificates are attractively packaged and are perfect for family, friends and co-workers!

Photography for guitarists and bands

2009-11-16T17:50:00.000-08:00

One advantage that guitarists have in being photographed by LSN Studios is that Steve is a guitar player himself! We've used this theme in the past and it's so fun that we can't resist doing it for everybody that can get the air! We photographed Matthew on Friday and he did great!

Steve's Song of the Week

2009-11-12T23:34:00.000-08:00

For the record, Steve is a HUGE Angels and Airwaves fan. So far two albums from these guys. Rare is it the CD that you can press play and you're good to go for the next 45 min to an hour. No bad material.

A terrifying spectre this Halloween...

Super-cool Senior fall portrait - Lots-o-leaves!!

2009-11-10T22:02:00.000-08:00

We created this portrait of Brittnee during her senior portrait session the other day. I like to think that it has a 1940's kind of sensibility to it.
