WHAT to WEAR WEDNesday!

WEAR what is "YOU"

...or it just isn't "your senior portrait"!

One of the most important things in choosing something to wear for your senior shoot, is to make sure it's YOU!  Your style...Your look....what you  love.

Don't like dresses?  Really not into lacy~girly clothes?  Then don't wear it!
But then you're like, "Well, my senior portraits should be dressy"....ummm, NO!  Not unless "dressy" is you!    This is your  Senior year and FRESH wants to capture YOU the way you love to be and the way you feel most comfortable and beautiful!  If you're in something you love, it will translate in your shots.  If you love what you're wearing, you'll be comfortable and comfort leads to confidence and confidence = AMAZING pics!

What if Mom wants you to wear this and you don't agree?  (happens almost at every session)...Well, we simply take a few shots in what she likes (do it for her!) and then we'll move on to what you love!   That way, everyone's happy!

~FRIDAY FAVES~

~Friday faves from a recent session because:

                             she is so relaxed that her eyes are smiling!

                       ~loving the blue of  her eyes with the navy shirt and hoops~

Of course she looks just as lovely here, but I'm loving

how her hair falls in this shot!  HEART!

I knew this gorgeous girl when she was just a toddler....she was

adorable then too!  Can NOT believe she's allll grown up!

Thursday thoughts!!

PRESS ON! xoxo  Lisa

It's just WATER!

With all the rain lately, (UGH), we (yes, WE) got in the water for these cool shots all the while praying we wouldn't get wet from overhead!  K has been swimming competitively since she was 4!  and she is fast!  Despite a short downpour, we managed to get some awesome shots!  Even Mom got in to help with a little lip touch up!  Shout out to Cameron McCormack for her wonderful styling/makeup on K and helping me out on the shoot!  She got wet, as well.  Oh the lengths we will go for awesome shots!!   Fun Times!

                     

 
               

                 I call the next one, "The Kraken" (Pirates of the Carribean)

                 
                                 last one before leaving. . . .

                             
                                 & one for Mom :)

LIP SERVICE

While we never need an excuse to buy a new lipstick, sun protection for your lips means mandatory shopping! Whatever your color choice (we love everything from nude to red hot!), look for lip care with an SPF of at least 15. And consider lip balm vs. gloss for the summer, as balms tend to hydrate more and stay on longer.

(i found this little lip tip over at lorealparisusa.com and thought I might pass it along)  

What to Wear Wednesday!

Welcome back to What to Wear Wednesday!  

This week it's all about AZTEC INSPIRATION! 

If one print is current on the style train, it's the Aztec print! It has a way of adding a lot of dimension and character to a look.  It can be paired with many different pieces and it instantly adds a cool artsy vibe! 

If you are looking to spice up your look, try finding a Aztec print shirt, skirt, dress, or cardigan.  When adding accessories, look for a subtle color in the Aztec print and bring it out in your earrings or necklace! It will instantly add a pop of color to your outfit! 

Makeup Monday!

MAKEUP MONDAY

It's time for another Makeup Monday!  This week we'll focus on the natural look!  Natural makeup assures you that your pictures will be TIMELESS! Our makeup artist, Cameron McCormack, is a master at the natural look.  The best kind of makeup is the the kind you don't notice!  No one likes to see foundation lines, sparkly bronzer, or clumpy mascara. Makeup should be used only to enhance your natural beauty!  

One easy step to follow to get the natural look is to skip makeup on your bottom lash line.  Think of putting eye liner only on the top lash line and adding one or two coats of brown/black mascara to the top lashes only! The photos below are great examples of the top line only look.  

Here is a great YouTube tutorial on FRESH makeup, by Cara Loren! Enjoy!
