Some Styling Tips for Your Photo Session...

 Before every session, the question of "what should I where?" always comes up.  Since I typically am not familiar with your wardrobe, here are some tips to help with that decision.  The inspiration for this list came from a photographer by the name of Elizabeth Halford.

1.  Khakis and matching shirts are soooooooooo yesterday.  :)
2. If possible, buy a new outfit for the session.  It will boost your confidence and that will have a positive effect on the way you present yourself for the photo session.
3. Props are FUN and make so-so photos MUCH more interesting.
4. Think outside the box when planning your wardrobe.  Textures, layers, and bright colors look fabulous!
5. Consider where the final product will be displayed in your home.  Dress to match the location.
6. Again, bring props.  Now is your chance to pretend like you are a high-fashion model. Make the most of it.  Kids also look much cuter and more natural DOING instead of posing, so give them something to play with.
