What TO wear

What you wear to your session is very important, you'll have to look at it in those pictures forever. Here are some tips as well as examples

• A pattern here and there is great but I recommend trying to avoid thin, tight stripes. They tend to look like an optical illusion in pictures.
• Preferably no large logos or graphics as they are distracting.
• Be comfortable! You definitely don’t want to look uncomfortable and/or have to adjust constantly.
• Families and couples don't have to be matchy, matchy but it always looks great to be dressed in the same color scheme.

Ladies, getting your hair and/or makeup professionally done is also always a great option.  Natural looking fake eyelashes are fabulous!  If you need some recommendations, let me know.  

BELOW: Love, love, love!

BELOW: Not too matchy, matchy but they look coordinating and great together!
BELOW: His shirt is a faint plaid but not too busy, it also has a touches of blue and yellow which tie in with what she is wearing.
BELOW: Simple and stunning!
BELOW: If you are going to go with a theme keep it consistent. These two did a vintage session and everything was vintage: clothes, hairstyle, location
BELOW: I love how this family came in the same color scheme but still with the most attention on the little one. Mom has touches of red in her necklace and dad has a red undershirt. The little guys pattern is busy but it's ok since there is so little of it as opposed to the dad wearing it as an all plaid long sleeve sweater.
BELOW: Great coordinating colors and the kids stand out more than the parents but not too much. Very cute and this was perfect for their Christmas card
