Bring a couple outfits with you so that we can go through them and have options before taking pictures, remember to not pick out anything with busy or bold patterns. Keep the clothing very simple.

For group pictures, dress similar with the same tones of colors. Do not wear anything with bold color or patterns as your eye will go to that subject first.

Remember your feet......they may show up in some shots!!! Wear nice shoes that are appropriate for the outfit.
*** dark pants + dark shoes = DARK SOCKS!!! ***

Schedule a time during your child's "happy" time of day when they are rested, awake and not hungry

Bring along things that make your child happy, just remember some of them might appear in a picture

Bring an outfit that might be fun for your child- like their dress up clothes or their Halloween costume.

If you think your child might be nervous you might want to think about possibly being in a couple pictures at the beginning. Dress to match your child in a solid colored shirt, your hands or legs might be the only thing that appears in the picture (white & white looks great and so does black & black)
