INDIVIDUALS & FAMILY

 

Your portrait session should be a reflection of your family. Before our session we will have a phone or in person consultation so we can discuss your expectations, ideas, and goals for our session. Preparation and communication are the keys to a successful portrait session.

Clothing

COLOR IS IN!  This photo shoot is meant to capture your family, including individuality and style. Helpful tips to keep in mind when choosing outfits:

• Think coordinating, not matching. Incorporate colors and patterns that fit well together.

• Don’t be afraid of color! Choose a few neutral colors, and then add a few bright accents to your outfits. Accessories such as scarves, necklaces, and clothing layers are great for this.

• Wear well fitting clothing. Not too tight, and nothing baggy. If you can’t walk in those pants, don’t wear them!

• No logos please. To keep the look timeless, try to avoid trendy clothing with words or logos.

• ​

                  Children

• Get your kids excited for the session and let them know how much fun it will be, but no need to over prepare them or add too much pressure for "best behavior"

• Kids pick up on your stress, so stay cool, even when they throw a tantrum

• Our goal is to capture their true expressions, and keeping it light and fun is essential to that.

• Our best behaved children (and adults for that matter) are usually those that are well fed before our session. Feel free to bring treats to reward good behavior during our session!
