Picture Day Tips- The Outfit
  • As you view the styles, make sure the outfit will complement the colors.
  • Avoid shirts with large words and logos. Layered clothing, solid colors, or patterns look best!
  • Make sure you and your child both love the outfit! They will be more confident and relaxed for the photo.
