If you would like something different and exciting, ask about adding a smoke bomb to your session.  This is really a fun and unique experience!   

What You Need to Know About Smoke Bombs

At the end of your regular session, we can light a smoke bomb, which will last 1-6 minutes.  All you do is keeping moving in different poses until the smoke goes out.  I will direct you, so don't worry about that! I will ensure that you are well-prepared with a variety of 3-5 different poses. We'll practice these activities  to make sure that everyone is familiar with what's going to happen, allowing us to maximize our time together. In order to capture the perfect atmosphere that smoke bombs help create, I prefer to employ strong and gritty poses.

You should wear an outfit that compliments the color you choose for your smoke.  We can also just use white or black smoke.  Just a little warning:  your clothing may have a tendency to stain from the smoke. 

Just a warning about smoke bombs: If you have asthma or breathing problems, this may not be for you. You may inhale some smoke, just like being around a campfire, you can never be sure which way the wind will blow it.

Some Smoke Bomb Sessions I've Done

I love employing smoke bombs in "wild natural" or "gritty urban" environments as they intensify the atmosphere of the place without causing any disturbance through haze or unpleasant odors (they emit a remarkable scent resembling sulfur or rotten eggs).

Doesn't this look like a fun and unique way to add to your senior session? It is quite a great experience, and you're sure to have unique senior pictures! Your friends will all be wowed!
