1.  Wardrobe:  As many clothing changes as time permits are allowed.  I recommend clothes that have solid color or have texture to them.  Large stripes and prints usually do not photograph well.

2.  Shoes:  Wear shoes that will compliment your wardrobe.

3.  Hair:  It is best to get a haircut a week or two before the portrait session.

4.  Suntans:  A little color is nice.  A sunburn is not.

5.  Hands:  Hands usually are in the portrait so remember to have your nails groomed well.

6.  Feet:  We may go barefoot with some portraits so scrub those feet & toenails.

7.  Glasses:  If you choose to wear your glasses, I suggest visiting with your optician as they can remove the lenses for you (give them plenty of notice and let them know it’s for a portrait session).

8.  Blemishes:  Conceal them as you normally would and we’ll let Photoshop do the rest.

9.  Can I bring props to my session?  You are welcome to bring items that help reflect your personality.

Examples for seniors:  Bring your favorite hat, sunglasses, letter jacket; uniform, musical instrument, pet, car, ski’s, ipod, trophies or anything else you feel represents you.

Examples for Children:  Favorite hat, blanket, toy or song.

10.  Be yourself:  This will be an exciting experience and over before you know it.  Bring your smile and most of all HAVE FUN!!
