Getting ready for your appointment!
When you are ready to make your appointment, please have a few days and times in mind.
Please decide on your session first. this way you will be able to get the appropriate time in the studio.
Any session above the Basic and Click and Pick require complete outfits.
Don't foreget to also bring: props (instruments/sports items), your comb/hair brush, make-up and accessories.
Please try to arrive on time for your appointment. If you are running late it is very important to call us as soon as possible. We will wait no longer than thirty minutes before we determine you to be a no show.
When you arrive we will verify your contact info. We will show you to the dressing room and you can get ready for your session. We typically start with formal yearbook pictures. It is best if you arrive in the outfit that you would like for these photos.
During your session please feel free to share any ideas that you have for your photos and if you see any backgrounds you like let us know. We appreciate the input and want you to have photos that you love!
Advice
How to look your best for beautiful Senior Portraits.
Do Not stay up late the night before your session! It will show.
Glasses: They can distort your eyes and face and cause glare which means you will need to pay for extra retouching. We do our best to minimalize glare, but some prescriptions are very strong. We recommend you borrow a pair of lens free frames or have them removed.
Braces: If you do not want to wait to have them removed/or can not wait, then we can digitally remove them for you. Extra charges do apply.
Tan Lines: Tans look fantastic. Sunburns do not. We recommend you avoid the beach the days before your session if you burn easily and be wary of tan lines. Please do not use self tanners.
Shorts: Avoid wearing them. They make for very difficult sessions.
Hair: Get hair cuts done a week before your portrait session. Not the day before.
Clothing: Solid colors work best, avoid stripes and vivid patterns that might draw attention away from you.
Do bring a shirt, tie, dress pants, and jacket. Also bring something casual. Polo shirts and button down shirts work really well for yearbook portraits. Try to avoid T-shirts.
Makeup: Natural and fresh is the best way to go. Less is more. Avoid body glitter.
Shirts: Long sleeves are best. Absolutely NO halters, Tube tops, or deep V necks.
Outfits: Bring a couple if you have a larger session. Some casual, some more formal. Bring complete outfits.
Face: Fresh shaves are a must.
