Clothing & Accessories
Wondering how to dress your child for Portrait Day? Lifetouch has the experience to guide you toward your best look.

  •   Choose solid colours or simple patterns that complement the portrait's background 
  • Medium to dark shades create a timeless look
  • Soft shades enhance lighter backgrounds
  • Avoid shirts with slogans as photo cropping can cut words in half
  • Long-sleeved shirts are best since short sleeves can be distracting and sleeveless tops can look too casual
  • Select small accessories that do not detract, such as simple earrings, pins and necklaces

Grooming Tips
Plan for a portrait to remember by:

  •  Scheduling a haircut two weeks before Portrait Day
  • Limiting exposure to the sun a few days before Portrait Day
  • Making sure nails are trimmed and clean as hands may show in portrait

Portrait Day Checklist
Getting a great picture is easy and fun. Just remind your kids to think about a few basics ahead of time.

  • Check your hair and shirt collar at camera time
  • Practice your smile
  • Remember good posture
  • Wear your best colours
  • Relax and smile at the camera as if it's your best friend
  • Be yourself and have fun
