Client Wardrobe Suggestions

Clothes – Family members should coordinate style and tonal colors.  Steer clear of logos and bold distracting patterns.  Keep jewelry simple.  Pay attention to feet and shoes as they will be photographed!  Children’s clothing could be neutral or vibrant!  Accessorize with hats, coats and boots/sandals/shoes!  When weather is appropriate, barefoot is best! 

Hair – Hair should be fresh back from the salon, about a week prior to the session.  Men, shave about 1 hour prior to your session time to avoid a 5 o’clock shadow.

Hands – some images will be shot at close range; keep finger and toe nails manicured and rings clean.

Teeth – Now’s the time to whiten those teeth!  If you have personal concerns, simple additional editing can be performed.  Please discuss this with us at the time of your pre-consultation.

Tanning – Now is not the time to try out spray tanning for the first time or lay out to possibly burn.  Give yourself plenty of time if you are thinking to give yourself some color before the session to practice.  Be aware of tan lines too!  – On shoulders, neck, arms and especially glasses/sunglasses lines. 

Makeup – Keep it one shade darker then what you would wear every day.  Don’t overdo it with “stage makeup.”  False eyelashes can create shadows too. 

Pet Grooming – Pets should be freshly groomed within a couple days of the session.
