1. Sleep!   Make sure you get at least 2 nights of good sleep before your photo session so that you will look fresh and won’t have bags under your eyes.

2. Guys, let a new hair cut grow out for at least a week before your pictures, allowing time for any white tan lines to disappear. Also, take the time to get a close shave. Girls, if you plan on coloring your hair or getting a new style, also allow at least a week to get used to the style.

3. Have your clothes and accessories ready the night before your shoot.  Choose clothes that reflect your style and the changing seasons (summer – fall).  Make sure they are clean and free of wrinkles.  Ask your photographer how many outfit changes he/she allows or suggests.  For each outfit, put your accessories in a zip lock bag and attach it to the hanger.
