Clothing
Please bring clothes that you feel comfortable in and best reflect your personality. Solid colors are best. Darker colors have a slimming effect. Pants and long sleeves are best. Bring a variety of outfits and different looks. Having something both casual and formal will allow you to mix things up into something that reflects your own personal style and that will stand the test of time. Be sure to hang and press your clothes before you get here. Wrinkles are hard to remove and will incur an additional cost.
Hair and Makeup
Avoid haircuts within a week of your session. Makeup may be needed to cover up blemishes and skin imperfections, though it can be done with digital retouching. Girls: Foundation and powder help tremendously. Also, mascara and eyeliner help bring out your eyes. Keep jewelry simple. Guys: Make sure to shave only a couple hours before your session, but don’t shave too close to your session time.
Other Notes
We love props!! Feel free to bring anything that reflects you: musical instruments, trophies, pets, sports equipment. If it can fit through the front door, bring it. Glasses: Please check with your optometrist about getting a pair of frames without the lenses to eliminate glass glare. Tanning: A suntan looks great, sunburn does not. Tan lines can be retouched for an additional charge.
