CLOTHING. May bring 1-2 changes of clothes. Earth tones are best. Men may want a suit, sport coat with tie, or a sweater. Women may want a simple dress, sweater, or blouse with a simple neck line. We want the face to dominate your portrait.

HAIR. Don't try a new hair style, and if you get your hair cut--do it at least 7 days before.

SKIN PROBLEMS. We can retouch any blemishes for the final portrait.

GLASSES. These can be a problem with glare. You might want to visit your eye doctor and borrow an empty set of eye frames for the picture.

BRACES. Braces can be retouched.

TANNING. Caution! Skin lines can be a problem. Don't tan for at least 7 days before a session.

MAKEUP. Best is a cream make up. Fresh natural makeup or evening makeup photograph well.

SHAVING. To look clean a freshly shaven face is needed.

HOBBIES. If you have a favorite sport, hobby, dog, stuffed animal, musical instrument, art supplies, a buddy -- you can bring them with you.
