A FEW TIPS TO MAKE YOUR PHOTOS TURN OUT THE BEST
When you get your stole, make sure you get a chance to steam it or let it stretch overnight to get the creases and wrinkles out. When they arrive in their packages they’ll be a bit creased so it’s always good to open it before the session. Might also want to make sure the gown doesn’t have big wrinkles too. This will help your photos be even better!
Do you have a favorite prop, memento, or item from your time at college or university? For example if you played sports or had an extracurricular activity that you really liked, you could bring an item for a fun picture. I have a cart that I bring to every shoot where we can carry things so it should be no problem :)
