Tip of the day

what to wear for a portrait session?

Whatever you are comfortable in! – You are what you wear and that’s our goal during this session. To let people see the real and wonderful person you are. When you feel good we end up getting the best images and footage.

Keep in mind if you want a nice relaxing family photo or video image, then jeans work very well, and perhaps same colored shirts. Tee shirts with large artwork or advertising logo's are not recommended they take away some of the lime light, which is you. Bright contrasting colors (keep in mind in group session color might clash, and you don’t want that!) make a high impact with children, but can be distracting on adults.

Everyone in black or white can look effective too and. The key is to know what you’re looking for – or bring a selection and work together to create some different looks. Choose clothing in similar colors or neutral tones so that no single member of the family stands out because the clothing is too light or bright compared to the rest of the group.

The goal of any portrait is to direct the viewers attention to the face or faces in the portrait. Simple, long-sleeved garments in natural colors always work well, but:

*Stripes, checks are too confusing.
*Bright colors, such as red or orange, will tend to overpower the face and ruin the portrait.
*Ladies should wear light, natural make-up, and modest jewelry. Not too much bling, bling.

Don’t be afraid to bring different clothes to change and try different looks.
