Planning ahead saves stress:

Getting everything situated the day prior can make the session a more relaxing and enjoyable process. This will show in your portraits.
Get a good night sleep. Being well rested will help you look and feel more energetic in your portraits.

Wear solid colors:

Nothing detracts from a subject’s face more than clothes covered in busy patterns and prints.

Bring Friends or Family:

Having friends or family at your session can reduce stress dramatically and they can help keep hair intact, make-up touched up and support in many other ways.
Scheduling a group session is always a good idea. You can work off each other, play and have fun during the entire session. 😃

Bring Hair and Make-Up Products:

Touch ups are always ok. Stray hairs seem to have a mind of their own so a good can of hair spray or bottle of gel can be very helpful. 😜

Family's can:

Pick matching colors
Pick themed colors or styles (seasons, pro teams, formal, etc.)
- Fall Season works well with Auburns, Darker Greens, Browns, Yellow and Blues.

Keep jewelry to a minimum:

Make sure the clothes fit:

Comfortable clothing does not mean baggy or loose fitting. We'll help you look amazing, but picking clothes that fit can help a bunch.
Clothes that are too small can make posing and positioning difficult.

Don’t forget hats and jackets:

Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate:

Drink plenty of fluids (water) before the shoot. This will keep your body and mind more attentive for portraits.

Eat Something:

Make sure you've had a good meal prior to the shoot too. This too will make you look more attentive for portraits.

Remember, RELAX & HAVE FUN 😜
