5 tips [for the Guys] 

1) Consider getting a haircut. What feels better than a fresh cut? Not much. We suggest getting a haircut about 3-7 days before your session so it has a few days to "settle" and look its best.

2) Bring props. It may seem like it's a lot harder for guys to express themselves in pictures but it's easier than you think! Bring in any athletic jersey, letterman's jacket you may wear for your school's sports team or one of your favorite professional team. Other props that may be a good choice include instruments, ties or bow ties and even your car! 

3) Bring at least one classic button down shirt. These images will often be gifts for family members. Though it is extremely important to be yourself for your senior pictures, grandparents and other family member will often choose and look for a somewhat simple headshot in a crisp button down. 

4) Shave or trim any facial hair. When you look back at these images you don't want to notice your beard or mustache more than you. Just clean it up so it suits your chosen outfits or personal style. 

5) Iron or steam your clothing prior to your session. Crisp and clean clothing photographs best. This may be the perfect time to learn how to iron before heading off to college next year! If you are nervous about ruining your clothing bring your outfits to a dry cleaner to ensure a classic look. Most importantly, clean and fresh clothing helps YOU to stand out. After all, these pictures are about you - make sure that's what is shining through!
