FAQ

We can help you select clothing that will enhance your portrait. Some things to consider are:

• Stripes, plaids and repeating prints are visually confusing and do not photograph well.
• Solid colors tend to photograph the best.
• Bright colors can be dominate in a portrait and make that person stand out more than everyone else.
• Choose clothing in the same color theme (warm, cool, fall, spring, etc.) for all family members to create color harmony within your portraits.
• Be sure that all family members are dressed for the same season (all in long or short sleeves… do not mix).
• Shoes are a fun way to dress up or down any outfit. We recommend avoiding beach sandals, flip-flops and tennis shoes.

Ross keeps a very close eye on the weather. Typically, he will not make a reschedule decision until 24 hours before the session. Forecasts any further out are just too inaccurate.
