What to Wear for Your Formal Cap & Gown Session
What to Wear Under the Gown:
- Gentlemen: Wear a collared shirt and tie if you would like the collar to show in your photos.
- Ladies: A solid-colored V-neck or tank top works well if you prefer that your shirt does not show under the gown.
*Caps, gowns, and tassels are provided by our studio but feel free to bring your own if you have them. If applicable, you can also bring your own sash, cords, or any other educational recognition.
Business Attire Poses:
-
If your sitting includes business attire poses, you must bring your own outfit, as business attire is not provided.
“Business attire” typically includes dress shirts, blouses, sweaters, blazers, ties, slacks, dresses, or other neat, professional-looking clothing. We recommend avoiding overly casual clothing such as graphic tees, hoodies, or athletic wear.
- Sitting upgrades may be available on-site if you would like to add business attire poses. However, you will need to be able to pay by Zelle or cash only. (Our photographers DO NOT carry change)
Arrival & Preparation:
- Please ensure hair and makeup are completed before arrival.
- Arrive at least 10 minutes early to allow time for check-in.
- If you miss your scheduled appointment and do not contact us in advance, a $15 rescheduling fee will apply.
Viewing & Approval
You will be able to view your images immediately on a tablet for approval and yearbook selection. If needed, and time permits, reshoots can be completed on-site.
