How to dress for your shoot {liberty county family photographers}

How to dress your family for a photoshoot tid bits..


#1
Coordinate outfits. Everybody in the portrait should wear items that complement each other in style and color. It is not necessary for all clothes to match, but they must make sense together. If grandpa wears a suit and tie and grandma wears shorts and a t-shirt, the portrait may look unbalanced and poorly planned.

#2

Stick to solids and subtle patterns. Bold stripes, large designs and polka dots stand out and tend to draw attention from the portrait's subject. An eclectic mix of patterns can clash and reduce the quality of a portrait.

#3

Wear colors that translate well through photography. Dark colors like navy blue, black and earth tones look especially nice outdoors. White clothing can get lost against a white background, and dark clothing against a pastel provides nice contrast. Bright shades of yellow, orange and pink can alter skin tones and are not ideal for photographs.

#4

Women should keep jewelry to a minimum and wear natural-looking makeup. You may want to wear slightly more lipstick or blush than usual so it shows up in the picture. Take some spare makeup with you and ask the photographer whether you need adjustments.
 
#5
Large, baggy clothing make people look larger in photographs. Wear clothes that fit properly. In addition, skimpy or revealing clothes are inappropriate dress for a family portrait.

#6

Men should shave before the portrait and trim moustaches or beards. Get a haircut at least two weeks before the portrait. If you get a bad cut, a couple of weeks will allow your hair to recover.

#7
Newborns and babies look best in thier birthday suit.. but if you would like for your baby to be covered we suggest you use plain clothing without polka dots, busy patterns and plaids.or even a diaper cover.

#8

I tend to like bright colors on little girls, and i like seing little boys in nice plain colored dress shirts and kahkis.usualy colors that accent the eyes. 

#9 please feel free to bring outfit changes, just remember that we are on a time schedule, so please be quick about it.


these are the main things i consider when doing a shoot ..  SOME of this information came from here > i do believe in giving credit where credit is due...

    Don't you just love them cheeks!! she is just to cute!

    updates and things.. {envision images photography coastal georgia }

    hi there everyone! been a long time since i posted anything on here.. so here everything goes.. its gonna be a long one lol..
    I have had a lot of people ask why i closed the studio, well here it goes.. i got really sick from an abscessed tooth i had neglected to get taken care of because i decided to open the studio with the money instead. so of course after neglecting to get it taken care of for months, the infection spread through my body to my stomach , kidneys , ect.. it was bad and i felt really bad to lol! So because of being sick i couldn't work, therefor no money coming in, then i used the money in the bank to get my tooth taken care of because it could have killed me if i didn't.. so i really didn't have much of a choice. however, it wasn't really that bad of a thing because i can still do it here out of the house, as long as i can do what i love i will do it anywhere i don't need a fancy studio to be me. and we all know I'm nothing fancy lol .. it was something i will never forget, i am still very proud of myself for achieving that. but i have to take care of me first. ok.... now on to new subjects..lol or matters that is .. still the same subject!
    WEDDINGS AND EVENTS.... no more weddings or events for me :)  i have just decided its not my thing... sorry.. but don't worry Sarah i am still doing yours miss mam and its gonna be awesome! :)

    ok now that that is all over with... i will be back soon to start posting informational tid bits about getting family pictures and how to take better pictures of your own ect... until then.. happy shooting!
    sheila
    and of course i am going to add a picture or two!! cant leave without something adorable to look at!
