The following is only a guide and can be discussed in more detail during a consultation.

      Warm Weather

• White and khaki colours are perfect.
• Avoid busy, patterned or bold colours. 
• Sleeveless dresses for a girl work well.
• White/pastel polo shirt and light coloured shorts great for a boy.
• For women, capris, shorts, trousers or skirt with white blouse will flatter your figure.
• For men, light coloured polo shirt, shirt or t-shirts, light shorts or trousers work well.
• Blue is also a great choice in warm weather.
• For group portraits, outfits should be varied but in harmony with each other.
  

       Cool/Cold Weather

• Winter coats, smart jumper or jacket always works well.
• Scarves, hat and wollen gloves make great photos and keep you warm!
• Adults - colours should be solid, light or dark
• Bold, colourful colours look great with toddlers and projects their energy and enthusiasm
• Children - colourful boots look great plus keeps their feet snug!
• For group portraits, outfits should be varied but in harmony with each other
• Trainers not preferred

        Hair

• If you plan to have your hair styled before for the shoot, schedule an appointment 2 week before your photo session
• Being photographed too soon after can prevent you from looking like yourself

        Make-Up

• No make-up for children. I retouch all blemishes including bruises or scratches
  
• Simplicity is key. Mascara is always good and if using eye shadow, choose a brown or plum. This adds a little depth.
• Use just enough lipstick to enhance your natural skin tone. Again, natural colours are best.
• Dads clean shaven.
