Guys this is for you….

Clothing

Remember, if Mom gets her nice outfit for her portrait, she is much cooler on letting you get what you want! Bring the right shoes for your outfits. Docs or sandals photograph much better than big bright tennis shoes. Bring a dark t-shirt to wear under dark shirts. A white t-shirt under a dark shirt sticks out like a sore thumb. So bring a black or gray t-shirt. Also remember that your clothing should fit you. Baggy clothing only makes you look larger than you are and it can also look sloppy. Avoid large, bold brand names or words on your clothing. Already, a few big names from just a few years ago, you wouldn't be caught dead wearing now. No need to make your portraits advertising billboards for clothing brands.

Shaving

Unless you are going for the unshaven look, please make sure you are clean shaven.

Hair

Be careful of changes right before your session. If you need a hair cut, do it at least two weeks before your session. Avoid bleached or crazy colored hair, it is only a trend of the moment and will not look as good in your portraits. Natural or maybe the highlighted look are a better choice, than a look you may not have by the end of the year.
