So, be prepared to take your slippers off and have fun! Choosing clothing in colors that match our tropical surroundings such as blue, green, white or biege look great! Or, wear colors that match the time of day your session will occur such as sunset red, orange or yellow, or sunrise blue, purple or pink. We usually recommend you avoid wearing formal or dark attire.
