Bebe’s:
- Infant’s always looks sweetest in their bare skin.
A diaper cover is all that is needed for infants under the age of 2 months. Parents should wear all black or all white to blend in to background allowing your baby to be the main attraction.

Children:
- Simple solid clothing. Traditional clothes stand the test of time rather than trendy outfits. Forget shoes and socks and show those cute toes for a more informal look!
- If your interested in a more formal look. It’s best to dress from head to toe. Make sure shoes, tights are in keeping with the visual interest of the portrait.
- Any of your own props will personalize your portrait. Grandma’s locket, daddy’s old teddy bear, a soft blanket, a family heirloom. I also have many items at my disposal.
