This is a great place for you to tell your clients more about your story and to describe the type of photographer you are. You can come back at any time to make more changes.

TIP #1: CHOOSE MULTIPLE OUTFITS

We always recommend doing at least 3 outfit changes during your session. You will want to get as many different looks as you can during your shoot. Think about everything from the outfit,


TIP #2: DON'T BE AFRAID TO TRY SOMETHING NEW

While you certainly want your photos to reflect your personality, I always encourage seniors to step out of their comfort zone for at least one outfit. Even something as simple as adding an accessory that you wouldn't normally wear, can make a big impact.


TIP #3: CONSIDER YOUR LOCATION

Build your outfits based on which location you have chosen. Select tones that compliment the setting.
