Information
Style & Select is an online platform run by a team of fashion stylists who curate a shoppable style guide for high school seniors, families and children.
After answering a series of survey questions to define your personal style and tastes, the platform presents a range of clothing options. Items can be combined into “looks” to serve as multiple outfits for an individual portrait session or as coordinated outfits for a group session.
Clothing is selected from small boutiques as well as large retailers such as Target, H&M, Free People, Torrid, and Gap. Clothing may be purchased directly from with the platform, or used as inspiration to draw items from your own closet or do further shopping. Items are updated daily to reflect in-stock items and current styles.
The Style & Select platform is a unique service offered by Ron Klein Photography in order to reduce stress and make the portrait process fun and simple for clients.

Perfecting the artwork on your portraits generally takes about 4 weeks from our session date. In peak seasons, it may take longer, so it is important to discuss any client-specific deadlines in advance.
There isn’t really a best time of year, but there might be a best time for you. Some like to schedule a session based on their seasonal preference in clothing and/or type of location. Others give greater consideration to weather and want to avoid the heat of summer or the cold of winter.
Keep in mind that we normally shoot on weekdays and in the late afternoon/early evening. Family sessions start about 1 – 2 hours before sunset, and senior sessions about 1 – 3 hours before sunset. From late Fall through early Spring, early sunsets necessitate earlier sessions. This could require students to leave school or parents to leave work early. Seniors should also plan ahead if they are involved in after-school activities that might make scheduling more difficult. In these cases, a summer session might be the better choice.
Philosophy
The main point of this experience is to give you something uniquely yours. As such, great care is take to make sure you receive portraits that reflect everything you and others love about you.
The initial consultation is very much a collaborative effort between you and Ron to design the perfect portrait session that matches your unique spirit and personality. The possibilities are as endless as your imagination. The session itself will be stress free. You WILL have fun! The proof viewing session will streamline the ordering process so that it is easy and simple for you and your parents.
Our goal is to make the entire process, from beginning to end, the experience of a lifetime. When we are finished, you will have a collection of portraits that you will be proud to share with your friends, and that make you feel as beautiful as you are.
The images that I photograph for you are the ones that I would want someone would shoot for me: Portraits revealing the relationships between me, my wife, and my children. Portraits that capture those expressions and details about my kids I know so well today, but fear forgetting as time goes by. Portraits that speak to that thing inside me that changed forever the day each of my daughters was born.
I photograph this way because, intuitively, it feels right. It feels like the most important thing I can do with the time I get to share with your family.
