What to Wear YOUR OUTFITS HELP TO TELL YOUR STORY :)

The answer to this question depends largely on your personal style, interests, and how many clothing changes they’d like to do. The session that you choose dictates how many clothing changes you have. Your yearbook picture is your first consideration. All districts require you to follow the school’s dress code. MANY districts are very strict when it comes to necklines and shoulders for your yearbook picture. If you have a nice long sleeved shirt that you like, I strongly recommend it! Districts vary from casual to suit and tie for men. Some districts mandate the color of the background, so check the literature they gave you (usually on their website) for color restrictions. I do have a few things in ‘Amy’s closet’ that meet guidelines, but not in every size! You may also bring the senior’s favorite outfit (even if it’s t-shirt and ripped jeans!), an outfit that you agree on, and one that reflects a sports/activity! Think of the ads you see when you flip though a magazine. DIFFERENT TEXTURES (lace, leather, fringe) and styles! Denim is your friend - it matches everything! Jewelry can really make a picture...adding dimension, as can a favorite hat, boots, or jacket. If you are a casual, laid back teenager, dress as such! **Everyone is not fancy!** If you love clothing, rock a really cool outfit with edgy boots/shoes! Avoid logos, tube tops, and super low cut shirts Be sure everything is ironed and wrinkle free. This may mean changing into your first outfit when you arrive for your session!

FOR A SUCCESSFUL SHOOT.... here are some tips!

BRING AT LEAST THREE OUTFITS: TRENDY (have fun with it, think magazine shoot!!!), Casual, and ACTIVITY/SPORT/PET, etc (no sport or activity? bring another trendy!) I have a ‘closet’ with accessories for you to borrow if necessary!

IT’S SO IMPORTANT TO WEAR THE RIGHT UNDERGARMENTS! Some sheer dresses and tops require nude underwear. Bra straps should not show, even if it is in style. Sometimes a strapless bra is a must!!! DO NOT ASSUME I CAN PHOTOSHOP OUT STRAPS, WRINKLES, ETC!!!! I AM A PHOTOGRAPHER, NOT A MAGICIAN! If you don’t love your arms, think long, flowy sleeves. Arms can appear larger than they are in pictures.

Be comfortable, it will show! Throw a trendy jacket over a plain outfit and add boots, wedges or heels, VOILA! So CUTE! Same goes for jewelry and hats!

Bring clothes freshly pressed and on hangers with COORDINATING ACCESSORIES to save time! Use fashion magazines, commercials, INSTAGRAM and PINTEREST for inspiration! MORE MAKEUP THAN USUAL....the camera EATS IT off your face! Don’t forget your lips....I also have tons of glosses :)LOVE lashes?! Wear some falsies! NAILS: neat and classic, avoid trendy colors... think neutral! SKIN: drink lots of water for a few days and avoid the sun a day or two before...I can't always photoshop burns! LIPS: gloss, lipstick or balm at minimum! HAIR: Start with it down then up for the last shots! If meeting with a hairdresser be sure to bring pictures... it's not a time to try something new! BROWS: Plan on taking care of unwanted hair at least a day or two prior!

for him BRING AT LEAST THREE OUTFITS: Casual, trendy/dressy (well, as dressy as you feel comfortable!!!), and ACTIVITY/SPORT Avoid clothing with logos and words (unless it’s a jersey). It will distract from your gorgeous face! If you are wearing a tie (and you don’t know how to tie it) have someone do it for you loosely so that all you have to do is slip it over your head and tighten it up! YouTube is great as well! Feel free to bring more than one! No need to wear dress pants for your yearbook picture! ;) They won’t show, be comfortable! Be comfortable, comfortable it will show! Jeans look AWESOME in pictures, especially with jerseys! Bring clothes freshly pressed and on hangers! Accessorize! If you play baseball or lacrosse, bring your equipment, ALL of it....if you LOVE your pet, arrange to bring your furry friend! They will be sure we capture a natural smile :) If your favorite look is the scruffy look, go for it, but avoid the sloppy scruff (on your neck, etc). If you want some with scruff and some without, bring an electric razor and we will do your more formal pictures last!! Be sure nails are clipped and clean!

On Trend

I love love going through magazines or surfing the internet for inspiration...not to copy pictures exactly (with my own senior clients), but to identify what the common thread is between them.... Here are just a few from sessions that had ‘senior style’, I then focused on their commonalities: ACCESSORIES TEXTURE SIMPLE, GORGEOUS MAKEUP LONG, LOOSE WAVES COMFORT!!! Denim Jackets Share pictures with me and I’ll keep a file for you! Determine what it is about them that you love and we’ll incorporate those trends into YOUR shoot! I have many accessories in my ever-growing ‘senior closet’!!!

So...

that is my senior model program for the Class of 2021. SIMPLE. AFFORDABLE. FUN! FAQ's: 1. three or so districts represented 2. single and group projects (come to the ones you can! Pets will be one!) 3. $20 for each referral (don't go looking for them! You are not a sales person!) 4. Fees: $100 deposit that ultimately goes towards what ever prints/ merchandise you decide to purchase. $150 sitting fee for you 'real' senior pictures (you may pay $150, but you will receive the Ultimate experience, anywhere within a 30 min driving distance, 2 hours long!) 5. You will appear on my Instagram, Facebook, website, magazines, studio walls, etc. You will have super cool, artistic, creative, unique portraits to post BEFORE you do your 'real' senior pictures! 6. Want to bring a friend along, sure! They can be one of my reps :) 7. The rest of this magazine is a portion of last year's senior magazine, this year the 2021 models will be featured! Pricing is the same, I will just have it structured differently!
