cf78 For us to make the best photo of you please consider these guidelines before coming to a photo shoot. 1. Unless your fashion is the statement you want to make , it is better to wear solid colors close to your face and avoid loud geometric prints or prints with loud colors. 2. Generally the photographer planning your session will meet with you and get a vibe for what you both want to accomplish so make a list of the " must have shots" . 3. Avoid gum or candy in your mouth at the time of the shoot. Cloning gum out of a photo is time consuming. If you have gum avoid letting it get into the picture. 4. If you are planning a family or group photo, try to dress everyone as close as possible as far as colors of clothing. Example 3 dresses in dark colors 3 in light colors and 1 or 2 has dressed in hot pink and flaming red. Planning a wardrobe ahead of time will make you a better photo. 5. The photographer will work with you to schedule a child's photography session away from their nap time. We want them when they are at their best. Please to not hesitate to rebook if the child is sick. Another tip for a good photo is to avoid all glitter or sparkle type makeup. Sparkle and glitter react like annoying mirrors in a photo especially when a flash is used. Using matte type eye shadows and blush will help eliminate these hot spots. The best photos are made when you are having fun and being yourself, so loosen up and bring along your personality.
