What Bay Area Directors Should Know In this example, the mural works well because it is part of the school building, easy to access, and shaded in the morning. Even though the portraits are taken on the sidewalk, foot traffic is light and the setting stays calm for the children. Class Photos, however, are taken inside, with flash. https://www.photodaybynicole.com/preschool-photo-day-resources/preschool-picture-day-planning-guide monthly 0.5 2026-07-03 https://www.photodaybynicole.com/preschool-photo-day-resources/choose-school-photographer-bay-area monthly 0.5 2026-07-03 https://www.photodaybynicole.com/preschool-photo-day-resources/student-photo-privacy-bay-area monthly 0.5 2026-07-03 https://www.photodaybynicole.com/preschool-photo-day-resources/what-to-wear-preschool-photo-day monthly 0.5 2026-04-25 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/655d4c378faf7e56b32bf6f8/24ccbd00-1eec-4726-a2b7-fb051cc79cbd/DSC_2395.jpg Resources - What to Wear for Preschool Photo Day | Bay Area School Photography - The Power of Choice Give your child the feeling that they “chose” their outfit for Photo Day. Lay out 2–3 options you love and let them pick their favorite. It’s a simple win-win — they feel confident, and you feel good about the look. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/655d4c378faf7e56b32bf6f8/bfc0a6d7-3f4f-495c-8422-ce848e8dfc7e/DSC_2435.jpg Resources - What to Wear for Preschool Photo Day | Bay Area School Photography - Choose Color (Thoughtfully) Solid colors or subtle patterns (plaid, floral, stripes) photograph beautifully against the black backdrop. Because portraits are taken from the shoulders up, there’s no need to worry about pants or shoes. Avoid: Large brand logos Cartoon characters Writing across the chest Fluorescent colors Black tops (which can blend into the backdrop) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/655d4c378faf7e56b32bf6f8/d0623cc9-66a8-4fbf-b8ad-32dfea84744d/DSC_7659.jpg Resources - What to Wear for Preschool Photo Day | Bay Area School Photography - Make Sure It Fits Just Right Make sure your child’s clothes fit them well - not too baggy, scratchy OR tight. We only have a few minutes together, and comfort helps children relax quickly and show their natural expressions. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/655d4c378faf7e56b32bf6f8/e5a80789-792b-46ae-b13b-4927d6cfd2d0/DSC_7816.jpg Resources - What to Wear for Preschool Photo Day | Bay Area School Photography - Add a Little Personality Accessories like headbands, simple necklaces, or a favorite hat can add charm and individuality. For younger children, a beloved stuffed animal for the first few photos can be sweet and meaningful. Choose 1-2 accessories, no more! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/655d4c378faf7e56b32bf6f8/cf89c85d-122e-4720-b986-c353a92a77fd/image-asset.jpeg Resources - What to Wear for Preschool Photo Day | Bay Area School Photography - Simple Grooming Goes a Long Way Fresh haircuts are recommended, and hair pulled gently away from the face photographs beautifully. Don’t worry about minor scratches or rashes — small details can be lightly retouched if needed. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/655d4c378faf7e56b32bf6f8/a98f3115-0300-4977-b240-118730e1fbf4/bay-area-preschool-sibling-portrait-05.jpg.jpg Resources - What to Wear for Preschool Photo Day | Bay Area School Photography - Sibling Portraits: Aim for Complementary, Not Matching Avoid dressing siblings in identical outfits or the same solid color. Instead, think complementary: • One child wears a patterned top • The other pulls one color from that pattern Or: • Both wear soft pastels • Or both wear bright tones Portraits are shoulders-up, so focus on tops only. If you have three or more children, the same principle applies. ………………………. Curious how Photo Day works behind the scenes?
