What is the best time of day for outside portrait sessions? The light is most beautiful at sunset. For this reason, we like to begin shooting about thirty minutes prior to sunset. Then when the perfect light is upon us, we are already in progress.
What should we wear? One must keep in mind never to clash with mother nature. Therefore, even if fuscia pink is your signature color, do not where it. Polka dots and plaid are out (unless you are a bluegrass band). Choose a color theme for the family or individual session based on the location; for example blue and white works great on the beach. Think solid colors with clean lines. If you are a lady concerned about your weight and will want some digital retouching, wear a dress or blouse and skirt. Guys, keep your colors neutral and your lines clean. The best place to add interest is with accessories like jewelry, belts, shoes, glasses, hats. With all this neutrality, don't forget to be yourself and have fun with your wardrobe choices.
What is the best makeup for a photo session? The best make up makes you gorgeous without looking made up.
Ultimately, the best make up anyone can have is a great attitude and healthy self esteem. Your happiness and level of self confidence shine through your eyes.
Do you also do indoor and studio photography? YES! In addition to family sessions on the beach and weddings, we also do corporate headshots, real estate and interiors, product and lifestyle, and in-studio at our farm. As a matter of fact there isn't much that we have not photographed over the years.
How can I hire your studio for my session or event? Generally, a deposit saves your date. We then require a signed agreement detailing the services and products you wish us to provide along with our fees. The agreement can be electronic or via old fashioned paper and postage. Final balance is due prior to the session.
