A family portrait means each family member should compliment in color and style and everyone else in that group. Few things to keep in mind:
They are . . .

• GLASSES - If you normally wear glasses, they should be worn for your session. However, it is necessary that you borrow (and return promptly) a set of frames without the lenses from your optometrist. This will eliminate reflections and distortions. Photography lens will turn darker when photographed. Shadows from bows cannot be eliminated. We cannot be responsible for your portrait if you neglect to borrow empty frames. Glass glare removal available upon request at the current cost.
• COLORS - Earth tones photograph extremely well and look really nice for this part of the session. Blacks and browns photograph nicely as will mono tone outfits. Avoid wearing plaids, stripes, checks, polka dots, etc. These busy clothes tend to distract from you, the subject.
• THE BEST TIME OF DAY  for taking photos (if taken outside) is later in the afternoon. The sun gives the skin a warm glow.
