Tips for our Seniors...

 

                        Don't be late

                      It is important that you be on time. Being late could result in the elimination of an outfit due

                               to lighting conditions.

                        Cancellations

                          We are not an assembly line portrait studio. Appointments are scheduled on a first come basis.

                               We have a limited number of spots and often end up with a waiting list. Please be respectful

                                if you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment. 48 hours notice is required.  No exceptions !

                    Plan ahead

                          Please make sure all clothing is grouped together by outfit and on hangers. All clothing should

                               be wrinkle free. Preplan your shoes and accessories as well.

                    Style of clothing

                       It is ok to bring clothing that represents different seasons. Stay away from stripes, plaids, and

                               revealing clothing. Be mindful of what undergarments you will need. A simple black or white

                               shirt always photographs well.

                     Hair

                       Don't do any last minute hair changes. Cutting and coloring should be done at least a week

                               before.  Some Seniors seem to like the messy look, but that does not work with the formals.

                               Please bring a brush! Simple hair style changes during the shoot are welcome.

                     Make-up

                       For the girls matte finish make-up is the best. Avoid shiny or glittery make-up and it is ok

                                to go a little heavier than you normally would.

                     Complexion

                       Don't worry if you have a few imperfections. We will take care of those.

                     Tanning

                       Be aware of tan lines. Try to minimize then as much as possible and don't go tanning the

                                day before or the day of your session. 

                          Props and Accessories

                           Includes anything that is important to you. This could be sports equipment, musical instruments,

                                cars, pets, books, hats, scarves,  best friends, Ipods, cell phones.....ect.  We are capturing your

                                personality and your expression of yourself.

                         Weather

                           Unfortunately we can't predict the weather. Even if the outdoor portion of the sitting has to be

                                rescheduled, we will still shoot your formals and one indoor casual outfit.

                         Adding a family portrait

                          We are certainly willing to include a family portrait sitting with your Senior portraits. It is to be

                                understood that this is an add on service and we are restricted by time and lighting conditions.  Also,

                               there will be an additional fee of $25.00 added to your Senior sitting fee. These images will be posted

                               on the online site but will not be included in the Senior proof book.                

                   Last...but not least

                      A parent is required to attend each Senior sitting. We expect certain behavior from our parents as well

                              as from our Seniors. This is an important time for both of you and we are here make it the best experience

                              possible. Please be respectful towards each other. Above all, this is the most important rule, relax and enjoy

                               our time together.

                              We will have a blast!
