Newborn – Preparing for your shoot
Doing a newborn photoshoot can be very exciting but many don’t realize that newborn sessions are very unique to any other type of photo session. The environment needs to be very calm and peaceful. The more people that are there will be distracting so its wise to only bring the parents to keep the tension in the room down as newborn can sense this.

Senior – Preparing for your photo shoot
When having your portrait taken, there are five areas where a little advanced preparation can make a huge difference. Neglect them, and an otherwise perfect photo could end up with distracting elements which take the focus away from where it should be.(‘Ahem’ Your beautiful eyes, of course.)

Children - Prepare them for their photoshoot
TEXTURES, COLORS & PERSONALITY Grab everything you have in bold colors and patterns; no logos or cartoon characters, and we’ll put together outfits. Really! The camera loves bright, happy, youthful clothes. Polka dots, stripes, kid-prints, and fun fabrics with lots of texture like summer cottons, sweaters, knits, corduroy, and denim.

Family - what to wear for your photoshoot
Coordinating outfits for family and engagement sessions is sometimes hard to do, so here are some good tips to remember: Wear the same “type” of clothing. If one person is wearing casual shorts and flip flops and another family member is wearing a suit and tie, obviously the picture will look a little off. Keep all outfits casual/semi-casual, or dressy so you actually look like you belong in the same picture. I always tell mothers to find something that you look great in firs
