Let’s talk about the most popular question before your session 

How many outfits can I bring to my session?. Xenia Monich Ventura County Photographer

This is one of the most common questions I get, so let’s talk about it!

If you’re wondering how many outfits to bring, it might feel like there’s a limit, but here’s the truth: I don’t have any strict rules. I’m not going to say “2 outfits max” or “only 1 outfit for that package.” I want you to feel free to bring as many as you’d like!  


Of course, you can bring 10 outfits if you’d like, but keep in mind you might get pretty tired after changing that many times, and it can also be a bit tricky in some locations. 

Most people find that 1-3 outfits work best, but I’ll leave it up to you to decide what feels right! 

My goal is to give you the flexibility to decide what works best for you without any hard limits.  

Let’s see

Here is an example of how 5 outfits work on one shoot lasting up to 2 hours.

*A partner’s outfit can change slightly, for example, your partner can change only his/her top

  Sometimes, we’ll look at the options you’ve brought and decide together which ones will work best—maybe you bring 5 outfits, but only 3 are the perfect fit. Or maybe you’ve already decided on 1 or 2 outfits and that’s all you need. Either way, I’m here for it! I love seeing how my clients prepare for their sessions, picking outfits and hauling their bags of clothes—it shows me how much thought you’ve put into your day, and I appreciate it a lot.
