Your ideas are always welcome and I will gladly advise you on your choice of clothing, make-up etc. As a general guide for ladies, darker clothes are slimming and long sleeves more flattering. It is usually best to wear something you like, something you feel comfortable in and which makes you feel attractive – but if at all in doubt, please bring a change of clothes.
Few people enjoy being photographed, and teenagers are no exception – if they are happier wearing jeans and a T-shirt - that's fine.
Babies and young children usually photograph well whatever they're wearing, but bare feet may be more attractive than socks or tights. Try not to make children anxious by telling them they must smile – ideally, we can all just have fun. Choose a time of day which doesn’t clash with feeding time or when baby is due for a sleep.
Often, your home reflects your taste and to some extent your personality, and can be the ideal environment for your session. The familiar atmosphere is particularly suitable for families, and perhaps the garden will provide the setting for a fresh, informal picture. Other locations can be exciting alternatives to show your interests and hobbies, or just a stunning ambience. Whatever the environment, a portrait session is fun and enjoyable.
I normally allow an hour for each sitting. Please don’t worry about postponing your appointment if someone is unwell – especially children – but do please let us know as early as possible.
I hope that this has been useful but if you need more help prior to a sitting please contact me.
I love my photography and meeting new people.
I hope I'll be meeting you.
