Tips for your session:
MATERNITY:Please contact me as soon as possible with when you would like to schedule your session. I always recommend scheduling when you are 7-8 months pregnant. If you would like to schedule sooner or later than that, it's not a problem. Just let me know.
Wear something comfortable that won't leave lines on your belly.
NEWBORNS:
Timing is everything!!! Newborn sessions take place before they are 10 days old. The sleepy newborn phase doesn't last forever!
A hungry baby is not a happy baby. Make sure your little one is fed before your session. And don't worry if we need to take a break to feed them . I'm a mom of two - I understand how it is!
PORTRAITS AND FAMILIES:
Portrait and family sessions take place about an hour before sunset. This allows for optimal lighting.
Dress your child in something comfortable. I always like bright colors. Remember, a happy child makes for the best pictures. See my Pinterest page for outfit ideas.
I'm not above bribery. If your child lives for M&M's, bring them. Do they have a favorite toy? Bring that as well. We'll do whatever it takes to get them to smile.
HEAD SHOTS:
Plain, solid color clothing is your friend. Try to avoid patterns and logos as well as turtlenecks.
Keep your makeup natural but polished. Men may need to wear some makeup as well.
Avoid lots of jewelry. We want the focus to be your face, not your bling.
Arrive in your first outfit with your hair and makeup ready to go so we can get started right away!
You should bring:
- A couple of different style shirts
- Make up and hair products to refresh your look
- Your favorite music
IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN HAVING A MAKEUP ARTIST COME TO YOUR SESSION, LET ME KNOW! THIS GOES FOR EVERYONE, NOT JUST CLIENTS GETTING HEAD SHOTS!!!
