Tips and Tricks for your shoot:

The best kind of outfits for photo sessions are those that are flattering and you feel comfortable in, anything you feel like you're going to need to adjust frequently will make you conscious and not allow you to be "in the moment".  Try to choose more neutral tones in rich or more pastel shades :) 

Avoid patterns IF possible as they detract from your beautiful faces, as well as bright red and orange whenever possible as they go a different shade in my editing style. 

Feel free to bring props, and assecorize!  Hats, flowers, baskets, etc. can enhance your session by providing you with a "prop" to play with.  

For the ladies: if you intend to wear heels, you may want to bring a pair of flip flops or flats to change into if we need to do a fair amount of walking. 

Lastly, bring your smiles and get ready to have fun! I'm so excited to capture your this moment for you!
