WHAT DO I WEAR?
This is one of the most popular question I get! Please do not stress yourself out picking out clothes for our session. I’ve had many sessions with my own family and I’ve found the easiest way to choose outfits is to pick my outfit first. You can, then, plan everyone else’s attire based on your colors and accessories.
I suggest starting by CHOOSING 2-3 COLORS, then coordinate from there. Don’t be afraid to mix solids and prints. Some people like the ‘matchy-matchy” look where everyone is wearing the same thing, it’s all your preference.
BE COMFORTABLE ~ Dress appropriately for the temperature & weather. You may need to sit or kneel, so ladies consider your dress length. If your little girl is wearing a dress it’s a good idea to put bloomers/diaper cover on her.
LAYER & ACCESSORIZE ~ Ladies, that’s probably music to your ears. I give you permission to go shopping! Accessories, like scarves and jewelry, are a good way to throw in a pop of color.
LOCATION ~ Think about what type of outfits (casual or formal) will compliment and be appropriate for your location.
HOME ~ What does your home have to do with your outfit choice??? Well, if you’re planning to print your images and put them up in your home, you may want to consider colors that coordinate with your decor.

TIPS
Please arrive 5 minutes before your scheduled time to insure your session starts on time.
If you are waiting for another family to finish their session, please be respectful and wait out of sight. Little ones are easily distracted! 🙂
Be sure your kiddos are fed and have used the restroom before the session begins.
Bribery!!! Yes, I said it and it’s OK! Having “a treat” for their good behavior is crucial. When we are taking the big family photo we can say, “Let’s get a few pictures first then we can get our treat!” Usually works like a charm.

REFUNDS
All sales are final. Due to the nature of digital photography and the fact that photographs, once sent, cannot be returned; Abi Sperati Photography has a strict no refunds policy.
EDITING
I am primarily a natural light photographer, which means my images have a natural look to them. Editing is used to finish off the images, not manipulate or change them. I offer basic editing which includes adjustments such as enhanced colors, contrast, white balance, sharpen, noise reduction, cropping, and light blemish removal.
