Aside from a beautiful campus, great professors and a close knit small town feel, Eastern has likely become home to some of your best memories and deep friendships.

What to wear for your EWU photo session
I like to run my sessions with three looks. One look with just your formal outfit, a second look adding the cap and gown in a flattering manner (not fully zipped up), and the full formal cap and gown outfit. An additional casual outfit is a fun way to add some variety if you have a longer session.
At EWU, the cap and gown are black with a red stole. Black, grays, reds, whites and creams are all great outfit color choices. Have fun with the dress by choosing a dress with some stand out point such as lace, super flowy fabric, or a neat hemline. Because of the simple stole over your shoulders, you have the freedom of choosing any neckline you like! Dresses are always a great go to option. I recommend that dresses be shorter in length than your gown. Other fun options I have seen are rompers and pant suits.
Students also enjoy changing out of their formal outfits into a favorite pair of jeans with a college shirt or sweatshirt. This is a fun way to capture an everyday look in a heightened photo session.
Whether you want to pop a bottle or toss a cap, I look forward to being your EWU Graduation Photographer! Head on over to my College Grads page to learn more!
