WHAT TO WEAR, WHAT TO WEAR

Your clothing can greatly enhance that beautiful photo. Here are some tips when choosing clothing for your photo shoot:



* You first must ask yourself what style are you going for? Do you want your pictures to look Semi-formal? Sassy and Fun? Modern? Traditional?



Families/Couples: If you are taking family pictures it's best to wear clothing that matches one another, but not too "matchy, matchy." Avoid large logos and pictures, to keep the focus on your faces. Choose 1-4 coordinating colors and have each family member wear one (to all) of the colors, keeping them within the same tones to avoid having one person stand out more than the others. (for example if everyone was wearing dark clothing and one person was in light clothing.) Choose the same type pants for everyone to wear ie, jeans, khakis, black pants, etc. Layers are great too, whether it be a vest, or an undershirt/tank top, or a scarf. Layers help to bring everyone in the photo together. Don't be afraid to wear bold clothing or patterns, both can help give interest and damention to your photo. Remember that details tie the ends together. The details include shoes, necklaces, earrings, bows, scarfs, and even something as small as buttons! Most importantly wear something you love! Your clothes are an expression of who you are and so are your photos!





Seniors: Choose one outfit that is more formal to get those pictures mom and dad will want to hang above the mantle. I strongly suggest you bring another outfit that is more bold, bright and fun, an expression of who you are. When choosing accessories make sure they aren't too big and bold which will detract from you. Please, please, please bring props or outfits that show the things you do and love. (volleyball uniform and ball, dance or cheer outfit, golf clubs, football, car. . . you get the idea) Don't forget about the accesories; shoes, earrings, necklaces, etc.

When in doubt call or email me with questions! I want to bring your vision to life!

The single most important thing to bring is a great smile. I'm here to have fun and make your experience fun too!
