What to wear and bring

What to wear

When considering what to wear remember how you would like your portraits to look.

Formal/Traditional portraits are generally taken from the waist up.

Casual/Contemporary portraits are generally relaxed poses, which may include your whole body. So you are required to dress from head to toe. You may also be required to remove your shoes to get the perfect photograph, so don't forget about your feet!

I would recommend warm, rich colours when choosing an outfit, as they generally photograph best. Black and white clothing or denim jeans and a plain t-shirt also photograph well. If you can please avoid wearing patterns especially when there are many subjects in the portrait as they can be too distracting.

What to Bring with you

Please don't forget to bring any important things that you would like to appear in the portrait eg: props for hobby shots, costumes (you may want to bring your child's favourite character outfit) etc…you can also bringing your child's favourite toy it can help make your child feel more settled and you will have a beautiful memory to keep forever.
