A break from 5 on Fridays...we're going to do what we'll call Photo Fridays! Insight into burning questions that all of you may have with sessions, the how to's, what to wears...all that fun stuff!
Thought we would start off with a frequent question that gets asked after you schedule your session...what do we wear!? The most important thing to remember is to be yourself and let your creativity shine!
Some ideas for you:
"• Hats: Great to add some spunk and help frame a face. Particularly if the session will include kids, hats are a great way to accessorize.
• Accessories: Glasses, scarf, funky socks. All these you may not think to wear on a day-to-day basis, especially more than one, but can look great in a picture. If you are questioning an accessory, bring it along (or bring a few!) and we can try it out!
• Texture and Pattern: These can add great visual interest. Again, put it into your particular style. Bold patterns can be great in pictures. One bit of advice would be to stay away from big logos on shirts, unless it is your child that is infatuated with Superman and you want to preserve that, then bring it on!
• Layers: One of the best ways to turn cute to looking like they you have a stylist at home. I little shirt with a jacket and hat (all coordinating but not matching) can add a great pop to a photo.
• Simplicity: With all that said about the above, there are times that you just want simplicity and that is the beauty of the photo. Keeping it classic is another option. If you want both classic and funky, no problem, just a change of clothes away!
• Whimsy: Sometimes the things that you would never wear or pair together are the perfect recipes for a photo. Pants with a tutu, skirt with umbrella and rain boots, etc… Feel free to let loose and get creative! "
