It was my first senior photoshoot with Michael Kormos team. I really love the photos, it was a hard job to select the photos, because I loved all of them! The photographer knows how to conduct the entire session and left me very comfortable, she captured my best moments, our best angles and best emotions! Definitely a five star treatment!

After researching many photographers in NYC, we decided to book our daughter's senior portraits with Michael Kormos Photography. We could not be happier with our decision! The entire process was handled perfectly, from the initial scheduling and outfit consultation to the final delivery of the images. They were incredibly responsive throughout. The portrait session itself was amazing—Sophie was a absolute natural at directing her, making her feel completely confident and at ease in front of the camera, capturing her genuine personality with zero awkwardness. The proofs were available incredibly fast, and the process for selecting and retouching the final photos was so easy. Thank you so much for capturing this special milestone perfectly!

I had my senior portrait shoot with Michael and Sophie, and I had such a great time! Michael and Sophie both made me feel so comfortable and confident, which I was honestly a little nervous about at first. They captured such beautiful pictures and really helped me with posing so nothing felt forced or awkward. We also brought my little sister along for a few photos together, and they were both so wonderful and patient with her—she absolutely loved them! I am so glad that I chose to do a senior shoot and that we picked Michael and Sophie to take these precious photos before I head off to college. You will not regret hiring them; their work is beautiful and their hospitality is wonderful. I can't wait to work with them again in the future!

Initial Consultation
Whether you live in New York or are just visiting, this city has the absolute BEST urban backdrops for your senior portraits! Now that you've decided to capture this milestone in the Big Apple, let us guide you through the fun part. Once you book your session with Michael Kormos Photography, our Welcome Guide will land straight in your inbox. From there, filling out our Questionnaire helps us perfectly understand your style. In the mood for a scripted narrative? Like getting out of a taxi on Central Park West, grabby a pretzel, and walking through Shakespeare Garden? We can totally do that! Or maybe you prefer a natural, lifestyle vibe—we know the exact hidden spots in SoHo and TriBeCa that catch the best late-afternoon light away from the crowds.
Make-Up & Hair Styling
If you book our Signature or Luxe sessions, our amazing makeup artist will come along for the ride! She'll be there to touch up your hair and makeup as needed. This is a game-changer if you plan on switching up your look or if you're worried about freshening up mid-shoot. Planning on booking our Mini or Classic sessions instead? Just make sure to have your hair and makeup camera-ready before your session kicks off!
EPIC settings for your Senior Portraits
As you'll see in our image gallery below, our senior portraits are captured all throughout NYC. From the cobblestone streets of TriBeCa all the way to Brooklyn Bridge Park for that jaw-dropping "skyline" look, our hand-picked locations offer the perfect backdrop. Let us give you some suggestions to ensure your senior portraits completely embody YOU, your personality, and your vision!
Multiple Locations & Wardrobe Changes
Our Signature and Luxe sessions include plenty of extra time for multiple locations and style changes. Whether your outfits are super elaborate or beautifully simple, we've got you covered with clothing changes in our handy portable wardrobe tent. You can totally rock a trendy "shopping" vibe in SoHo, then switch into a sophisticated look on Wall Street! Let us know how many looks you're dreaming up during our initial consultation so we can plan the perfect flow for your session.
Additional Digitals
Our portrait sessions are completely all-inclusive, but you always have the option of upgrading your gallery! Say you book the Signature Senior, which comes with 30 edited images—nothing is stopping you from falling in love with and choosing 40, 50, or more. Any additional digital images are just sold separately.
frequently asked questions
How do clothing changes work if we are shooting out on the streets of NYC?
That's an excellent question! Our biggest tip is to match your outfits to the season—freezing in the dead of winter is no fun, and goosebumps are tricky to edit out. Staying comfortable ensures you look and feel your absolute best.
When it comes to changing in public, we've got you covered. We bring a private, pop-up wardrobe tent to every shoot so you can change right on-site. Just keep in mind that while our Mini session is limited to one look, our Classic, Signature, and Luxe sessions all include outfit changes. Bonus tip: Throw your extra clothes and shoes into a rolling bag to save your shoulders while we walk between those perfect photo spots!
Can we shoot at multiple locations, and how do we travel between them?
Our Signature and Luxe sessions include plenty of time to accommodate different locations, as long as they're within walking distance! A perfect example is pairing a casual, breezy look in the natural beauty of Central Park, then swapping into a chic, high-fashion style for 57th Street.
We always shoot during the last two hours of daylight. This is to capture that gorgeous, romantic golden light. Because of that, trying to travel far across town during evening rush hour is a recipe for getting stuck in traffic, and losing your light! If your heart is set on two spots that are miles apart, booking two separate Mini sessions on different days is the absolute best way to go.
Can we include my cap and gown, college sweatfirst, or sports gear in the photos?
Absolutely. In fact, we encourage it! You don't have to wear it for every shot, but these props add a sense of identity and personal flair to your senior portraits!
How do we handle crowds and onlookers in busy areas like Times Square?
Want to know a secret? New Yorkers almost never stop and stare. Honestly, there’s probably another photoshoot happening just a few blocks away! Locals are totally used to cameras and productions, and most people are in too much of a rush to even notice us. We think you'll be pleasantly surprised by how easily we can blend into the background, leaving you free to rock your session without the stage fright!
What should I do if I wake up with a massive blemish on the morning of the shoot?
First things first: don't panic! Seriously, a sudden breakout is nothing to worry about. Any blemish can be beautifully concealed by our makeup artist extraordinaire, and whatever is left can be seamlessly edited out in post-processing. Just focus on getting a good night's sleep so you wake up fresh, glowing, and ready to have some fun!
Can my parents, best friend, or dog jump into a few of the shots?
Of course! You are more than welcome to bring your favorite people. Plus, whenever your friend or parent isn't jumping into a shot with you, we love giving them a "job"—like helping with outfit changes, checking your hair, or holding bags.
Planning to bring a pet? Just give us a heads-up beforehand, since some spots in the city (like Central Park's Sheep Meadow) have strict no-pet rules. Just a little reminder for parents or grandparents: we do move pretty quickly between locations to catch the best light, so everyone should be ready to keep up a good walking pace!
