What To Wear For Senior Portraits

Unfortunately we cannot offer a hair and makeup artist on site, but we do have some tips if you plan to do it yourself or have someone else do it for you.

Remember when taking photos we do use strong lighting, and while we know highlight and sparkles are super cute and in fashion right now, they don’t appear well under flash lighting. They can cause you to appear oily so if you do decide to wear any, keep it light and airy.

Love what lipstick can add to an outfit? So do we, but make sure to check your teeth in our mirror. We will provide one in the dressing rooms as well as the photo taking area before we get started! Soft mattes usually work best for photos but if you decide to go for a gloss make sure to pull your hair back as hairs tend to stick in the gloss!

Eye makeup is a wonderful tool and can really enhance an eye color or eye size. White liner on the waterline can cause the eye size to seem larger and wider whilst eyelashes can minimize it due to the weight on your natural eyelashes. Be sure if you do plan to wear eyelashes, you bring glue to fix them if need be in our dressing rooms.

Foundation can be a powerful tool so if you do decide to wear them make sure to color match and use it on your entire face. If you want to cover some pimples its best to use full coverage rather than putting foundation on just the pimples. The camera and lighting will pick up tone differences and enhance them.

We do provide retouching so if you prefer not to wear makeup but still want those pesky pimples or lines to disappear we can definitely help! When selecting photos after your session you are presented with different retouching options that best fit your needs.

We recommend not getting a haircut the day of photos and instead do it ahead of time by a week or two especially for guys who might want to try a shorter look.
