FOR
OUR SENIORS
If you have any specific
questions or concerns, don't hesitate to call. Get plenty of rest the night before
your session so that you look your best, bring some favorite
CDs to listen to during the session and, most importantly,
relax and just be yourself!
Bring in items that reflect your personality: Musical
instruments, pets, cars, friends, a letter jacket, a class
ring or anything else you can think of. Your very own
special props can really personalize a photo.
And a word to the wise, don't change your hairstyle just
before you have your portrait taken or have a haircut less
than a week before your appointment.

CLOTHING
SUGGESTIONS
AND IDEAS
Choose a
variety of outfits for the session you choose. Outfits may
be traditional, casual, formal or semi-formal. Feel
free to bring clothing that reflects your interest in a
certain sport or hobby.
Coordinate
your outfit from head to toe. Some poses will show your
shoes, so don't forget to bring shoes and socks for
each outfit - or plan a pose barefoot.
Long-sleeve
dresses and shirts are recommended unless combined with a
special outfit.
Shoes should
be polished, without scuff marks. Sneakers should be clean.
Be sure
clothing is ironed. Wrinkles will show and cannot be
retouched.
Nails and
hands should be looking their best since they will show in
your portraits.
Do not get
sunburn or a dark tan. Tan lines cannot be retouched.
Earth tones
are often best for outdoor portraits.
Your face
should be the focal point of the portrait. Busy patterns or
loud colors can be distracting.
Keep the
tonal range of clothing in the same group. Don't mix light
and dark colors in the same outfit.
FOR
THE LADIES
Choose colors that will best complement
your skin tone. Avoid light yellows and greens
as they might affect your skin color in the final
portrait.
Darker colors minimize body size.
Don't
forget jewelry or any necessary hairspray and makeup
for touch-ups during the session.
FOR
THE GUYS
Be
freshly shaved for the photo session. "Five
o'clock Shadow" cannot be removed.
If
you are wearing a shirt and jacket, it is best to
select a shirt that is a solid color and a tie
without a busy pattern.
