In an attempt to have a creative senior photoshoot, this student wanted to do something outside the box. ParisMtPhoto enjoys working with students to create memorable senior portraits. Sometimes, that means awkward photo shoots in unusual locations, including this cereal photoshoot in a grocery store aisle.

The photographer seems to have thought of everything, almost. As noted in the caption, they brought a broom. They did obtain permission to conduct the cereal photoshoot. The cereal was purchased.

The senior would sit on the floor, propped on one arm and leaning back slightly. With her other hand, she would slowly tilt a box of cereal up to her mouth. The goal was to show the individual cereal pieces cascading gently into her mouth. Things didn’t quite work out that way.

After dumping much of the box of cereal over her face and lap, the senior and the photographer both had a good laugh. The tagline across the video says, “When you forget to tell your senior to pour the cereal gently!” Perhaps she was just a little bit late on that thought.

Even with the initial misstep, the photographer and her subject persevered and ultimately created a fantastic portrait. The imagination to attempt something like this is thinking outside the box. I doubt they expected to see so much outside the box, but it did work out in the end.

Senior portraits are often well-planned, professional photoshoots. They signal the end of the school year and the transition into adulthood. At Farmington High School, they have a different tradition. Students select a fictional character and arrive dressed as them for the official ID Badge photo. This offers another memory from their high school years.
