Welcome to the hub! Where you will find everything you need, all in one place.
1. Parents: Book your makeup & hair (MUAH) artist
Styling touch ups on location with AVHS senior Emily.
Tiffany and Lisa are my recommended MUAH artists.
I have worked with them for years.
They understand my shooting process and how
I want my seniors to look like themselves.
(They also understand that I am at the mercy of the weather in terms of rescheduling.)
They come to your home and set up their styling stations- it's very luxurious.
For an additional fee, they will attend the shoot to provide styling services throughout.

5. What to Wear?!?
By bringing along this jacket, Nina added a whole new look to this outfit.
Fundamental good advice:
- Make sure you have the right bra for each look. Move around: do the straps show?
- Wear pants or shorts for at least one of your looks. This will give us more posing options than if all your outfits are dresses/skirts.
- Hey Shortie! Check the length of dresses, skirts & rompers when you are sitting down. Can you sit comfortably without showing off more than you'd like?
- Want your legs to look longer? Focus on your shoes! If you are wearing dark jeans, wear a dark bootie with a heel. If you are wearing a dress or skirt, nude heels are perfect for a formal look. Or nude espadrilles for a more casual look.
- Extras! Hats are a great prop- even if you aren't wearing it, a hat is fun to hold. Sunglasses- bring along your favorite pair for a few shots. Jackets/scarves: these are great ways to mix things up and add texture.
- Jewelry: definitely wear it if it has special meaning to you. But apart from that, bolder pieces will show up better on camera. You'll see a delicate necklace in a tight headshot, but not in a full-body.

6. Wall Art Design
Parents, one of the services that I provide is helping you design the perfect wall art collections for your home(s). This can incorporate existing artwork & future artwork (anticipating younger children's senior year portraits). Please text me a cell phone picture of a wall in your home where you would like wall art and I will be able to show you examples to scale. See the instructions below for taping a piece of standard printer paper up for the shot. (925) 201-9061.
