Harry Potter!

I can't wait for this movie to come out!! You will probably see Jason and I at the midnight show in fact. I have been a huge Harry Potter fan since the beginning and have the whole collection of books. I hope it's as good as the other ones, it sure looks like it.




The music just gives me chills!! :)

Clothing Consultation


Wondering what to wear for your session? Well, here are some tips for you!
First of all, bring a variety of clothing! That way, we can go thru your clothes and see what would work best. Bring something casual, something formal, a jacket, jeans, skirts, a dress, shorts, hats and jewelry.
For the girls: Try and bring more than just summer clothes. We know it's summer and it's hot, but your style is more than just shorts and tank tops.Wear layers! If you bring a tank top, also bring a jacket or a shrug. This doesn't count as another outfit so bring what you want! It's better to cover your arms for your portraits, but that doesn't mean you don't have to be stylish!Also, try to stick with solid colors. I'm not saying you can't wear patterned shirts, just have something solid to go over it. You want to notice you, not your busy shirt!
For the guys: Layer it up! Bring those graphic tees, vintage blazers, ripped jeans, hoodies, belts, shoes, hats, even sunglasses! Try really really hard to stay away from those stripes and busy shirts! I know, they are all you wear, but bring more than just that shirt. One of every color doesn't give you much to choose from when looking for different poses.
Colors are great, but try to stay away from floresent colors next to your face. The light reflects off your shirt and casts a colored shadow from your shirt.Good to know, right!?
WATCH THOSE ARMS! Ladies especially: it's better to cover your arms that to have them bare. I know, I'm sounding boring or like the clothing police, but you want to look great right? Try to find shirts that are at least 3/4 sleeve or longer...or add a jacket like I said before. Cap sleeves, tanks, halter tops...all things to steer clear of, at least for majority of your outfits. If you can't live without one of these, bring it. Just don't have all your outfits like this :)
Check out H&M where you can create a model with your dimentions and coloring and try different clothes on it to see what you may look like.Also, take a quick pic of yourself in your outfits and see what you look like. That's an easy way to check how you may look in your pictures!
