Graduation Cap and gown photos have become pretty popular over the last few years. I think people realized how much hard work they put into getting a degree from Ohio University that they want to commemorate their hard work and FUN they had while living in Athens. A lot of the time a session will be a mix of wearing their graduation cap and gown or academic regalia as its formerly called!
Getting these cap and gown photos out of the way before your graduation/commencement day will make the day so much easier, knowing you won’t have to scramble for photos the day of and you can just soak in the day with ease.
Here are some tips for the perfect cap and gown graduation session.
Iron your Robes
Make sure your cap and gown are nicely steamed or ironed, if you take them directly out of the bag and to the photo session there is a good chance they will be wrinkled or creased.
Wear a nice dress or outfit under the robes so that we can open up the gown for some variety of poses
Get the “Mom Shot”
Your mom will appreciate a nice portrait or head shot to display at your party or on social media.
