Tips for You
How to Prepare for Your Portrait Session
- ✓ Choose outfits that coordinate without matching exactly — neutral tones or complementary colors work best.
- ✓ Avoid large logos, very busy patterns, or overly bright clothing that distracts from faces.
- ✓ Bring an extra outfit change for formal photos and another for casual shots.
- ✓ Get a good night's sleep — eyes and skin look their best when you're well-rested.
- ✓ Arrive 10-15 minutes early so everyone can settle in and kids can relax in the environment.
- ✓ Bring snacks and water for young children — happy sessions start with happy kids.
