Gilmore Studios has been photographing high school sports team portraits since 2006. We currently work with many local high schools in Orange County, including Newport Harbor, Huntington Beach and Corona Del Mar High School. We love to photograph the kids in an outdoor location with natural light. High School sports photography doesn’t have to be dull and boring, right? After photographing the groups, we always have time for some fun candid photos of the kids and their best friends.
includes:
We always encourage teams to meet at the beach or a park for their team portraits unless there is a specific background (school sign, bleachers, etc.)
Yes, school team portraits can be arranged for as little as $10 per student.
All photos are put on a private online gallery where prints and digital images can be purchased.
Do you have a personality portrait hanging in your home? 🤍
It’s not about perfect smiles or matching outfits.
It’s about capturing who your child actually IS right now.
Their expressions.
The way they laugh.
Their personality in this exact season of life.
I started doing these with my own kids and honestly… they’ve become some of my favorite things hanging in our home.
I update them yearly and one day, my plan is to have their future family personality photo hanging on the wall.
These aren’t just photos for now.
They become part of your family story.
Personality Portrait Sessions are available May 12th through June.

Prom fashion in 2026 just hits different.
The colors.
The textures.
The dresses with movement.
The perfectly fitted suits.
And somehow every friend group has their own vibe this year.
Honestly? Prom photos have turned into full-on fashion shoots and I’m not mad about it.

Unique locations for a senior session.
If you want your photos to feel different… start here.
Museums
Industrial, bold, and full of character. Clean lines and colors.
Aircraft, hangars, and metal textures that create a strong, unique backdrop you won’t get anywhere else.
Disney World / Disneyland
Color, movement, personality.
It turns your session into an experience, not just photos.
Here’s how I approach locations like this:
We don’t just pick something “unique”… we pick something that actually fits you. Your style, your energy, and how you want your photos to feel.
Because the right location doesn’t just look good…
it makes your photos feel like you.
