Graduates
“We take photos as a return ticket to a moment otherwise gone.”
“Giannina was such an amazing photographer. I went into the photoshoot with a certain expectation of what I wanted my pictures to look like, and she not only met all of my expectations, but she did so much better than I could imagine. Looking at the photos she took, I have gained a new confidence in myself that could not have happened without Giannina. She has made my graduation so much more special, and I cannot thank her enough for it.”
— Janvi P., Class of 2022
Book a session - Senior Portrait Packages
Congratulations on reaching this exciting milestone in your life! Your hard work has paid off and now you can celebrate your accomplishments. These are the portrait packages that I offer specifically for graduates.
For the pre-shoot planning, we’ll go over which campus locations and looks you want. We can also create a mood board with photos for inspiration. During the shoot, I’ll guide you with poses, make sure that your sash isn’t twisted, fix your hair, and other little details.
Every shoot includes a few simple complimentary props that you can use, such as biodegradable confetti and a letter board. I recommend that you bring other props that represent your personality, identity, or major if you’d like to personalize some of your photos.

You can expect to receive your gallery of edited photos around 1 week after your shoot or earlier. However, this might change during the busy season in May/June depending on my schedule.
Here’s a tip based on prior experiences: Try booking your grad shoot as far away from the date of your graduation as possible. Some grads book their sessions about two or three months before, while others wait for all the graduation ceremonies to pass to have a more relaxed campus. Meanwhile, grads who schedule their shoots only a few days before their commencement ceremonies usually have the roughest time. The last thing you want to worry about during your shoot is a massive amount of other people crowding the same spots you want to take photos at, waiting in lines, and having to rush. The worst time to schedule your session is the same week of your graduation.
If you’d like to book your shoot or have any questions, please fill out the contact form below or send me an email at hello@gianninafredo.com
Congratulations again and I’m looking forward to capturing this sweet moment for you!
