What should you wear?
Choosing outfits is a very important part of your photos and I know planning what to wear can sometimes be stressful. Luckily I am here to help!
Style
Decide what type of style your family wants to go for. Do you want to be dressy or a little more casual. Think about what type of look you want to see in your photos and start there! You will be doing a lot of moving, playing, sitting and squatting with your kids so please be sure you're wearing something you would be comfortable doing so in. I usually recommend avoiding super tight clothes and anything too short
BIG TIP: Make sure your "vibes" match if you're going to be casual dress your kids casual. If you're going to be super dressy avoid putting your kids in more casual clothes.

When thinking about colors consider using 2-3 complimentary colors instead of just one color. You want to create a color palette with your outfits. If you do want to do matching outfits or exact matching colors that is also fine too, but a color pallet does photographer a little nicer.
Pick your color palette first.
If you are doing the modern setup whites, dark greens, blacks or cream colors would work. You can also add hints of red as well.
If you are doing the classic setup whites, deeps reds, browns, creams, dark greens are all great options - avoid all black for this setup it is too harsh for this soft cozy look.
Any of those colors would work for both the outdoor or bow setup as well.
If you are doing all 3 setups neutrals would work best with a hint of maybe deep red or dark green. neutrals like tan, creams and whites.
please avoid colors like pinks, bright oranges, yellows, blues. stick with the neutrals or darker Christmas colors
If you are going to do flannel make sure the flannels match. I would reccomend only putting 1-2 people in flannel and the rest in solid colors to match. If you are doing all flannel pajamas that is fine to all match.
I do alway recommend avoiding logos and cartoon characters on children's shirts. unless you are wearing Christmas matching pajamas.
I usually would recommend men to avoid wearing any type of hats because of the shadow it cast on their face, but I know many men are more comfortable with wearing hats. Please just keep in mind to wear a hat that still matches the color scheme and has a discreet to no logo. Also keep in mind that I may also ask you to tip your hat up a bit if it is covering your eyes.
Color & Patterns
Your mini session
Please make sure your kids are ready to go on the day of pictures. If you have kids that are still in diapers or still bottle or breastfeeding please make sure you have everything you need ready to go so we don't lose any time. Remember these sessions are only 15-20 minutes! One tip that usually works is to make sure your kids have had their naps for the day and are not just waking up when you and your family arrive so they’re ready to smile for the camera!
If you are going to wait to change them when you arrive please arrive with enough time to do so so we are not cutting into your session time.
If needed I will have candy and bubbles to grab the kids' attention! If you don’t want them to eat candy let me know!
PLEASE BE ON TIME! These sessions are scheduled back to back and any time you are late will reflect in your session.
NON SHEDDING Pets are welcome to both indoor and outdoor sessions. please bring them on a leash and please bring doggy bags to clean up if they use the restroom. If they do use the restroom on the rug or couches there is a clean up fee.
Payment & Delivery
All sessions will be delivered by an online gallery. I will send you a link where you will be able to download your images. Please keep in mind there are lots of Christmas sessions and I will be doing my best to get them returned as fast as I can.
The remaining payment has to be made right after your session via venmo (@ alisia-saucedo) cash app ($alisiasaucedo) or exact cash.
Questionnaire
Lastly please fill out this questionnaire so I can get to know you and your family better before your session!
Again, please let me know if you need anything at all before your mini session! Very excited you booked and I can’t wait to see you and your family at your session!
Thanks again,
Alisia Saucedo
