No. Uchida Photo provides the cap and gown for your formal portrait session.

Wear a tank top or a top that can easily slide off the shoulders. The drape is worn over your clothing and styled by our team.

Please wear a plain white t-shirt. We provide the tux shirt, jacket, and bow tie.

Boys should wear a white button-down shirt and school tie. Girls should wear a simple top with a modest neckline. Avoid bulky collars, hoodies, or anything that creates bumps under the gown.

That’s completely fine. Let us know when you arrive, and we’ll position you to help reduce glare.

Yes, if you would like it visible in your portrait. Pearls, necklaces, and earrings are classic choices for drape portraits.

Keep everything classic and natural. Arrive with hair styled the way you’d like it photographed, and bring a brush, comb, clips, or touch-up items just in case.
