Here are a few tips our clients find helpful in creating the best portraits possible:
CLOTHING
Bring a variety of colors and textures, but be sure to include solids. Stripes and bold prints draw your eyes to the clothing, not your face. When in doubt, bring a few extra outfits, and we will help choose those that will be most flattering and that will photograph best. Be prepared to be photographed head to toes.
HAIR
Avoid changing your hairstyle right before your portrait session. Often a new color or cut may be more dramatic than you would like in your portraits. Our goal is to create a variety of portraits you and your family will like.
 
RETOUCHING No problem. We will retouch facial blemishes and shine on all finished portraits
TAN LINES
Keep in mind tan lines will show.
SMILES AND BRACES
Braces on your teeth can be removed with an additional charge, and you'll want a variety of expressions, so don't hesitate to smile, smile, smile.

 

PETS
We encourage you to bring your best friends, including 4 legged. To avoid accidents, please don't feed or water your pet a few hours before arriving.
FAMILIES
 
CLOTHING
Clothing won't make or break a great portrait, but it you have a choice, have everyone wear the same tone, either light or dark colors. If one person wears white and everyone else dark, the person in white will stand out. To create the variety of expressions you want, we suggest you avoid clothing changes. We can help you choose the most flattering clothing and which will photograph best.
WEATHER
For outdoor portraits, overcast or cloudy days are actually better than bright, sunny days. If we have scheduled an outdoor session but weather doesn't cooperate, no need to reschedule, as we can go inside to our studio.
