Sessions can take place at a location of your choice, such as your home, a park, or any other meaningful place to you.

I recommend wearing comfortable clothing that reflects your personal style. Coordinating colours without being too matchy-matchy works best. Avoid busy patterns and logos that can be distracting. Feel free to bring a few outfit changes, if you'd like but please remember where the photoshoot will happen & if they have facilities, where you can change outfits.
