Let’s face it—summer in San Antonio isn’t just hot, it’s “fry-an-egg-on-the-sidewalk” hot. And unless you want your makeup sliding off your face or your teenager squinting into the sun like a confused meerkat, an indoor studio portrait is the way to go.

At Dos Kiwis Studio, the A/C is always cranking, the lighting is perfect no matter the time of day, and best of all—no mosquitoes! That’s right: we shoot studio portraits year-round, at any time of day, with perfect conditions and zero sunburn.

Two Looks, Twice the Fun

We offer two outfit changes during your studio session. Go full “dressed to the nines” glam—think suit, dress, heels, pearls, or your best “I’ve got my life together” look. Then switch gears into something casual: jeans, sneakers, favorite t-shirt, maybe even that college hoodie you secretly want them to live in forever.

Because if your kid is heading off to college this fall, this might be your last chance to capture them at home, looking clean, presentable, and not living off ramen noodles. You’ll thank us later when you're staring at that portrait on the wall, whispering “I miss you, laundry pile and all.”

What to Wear (So You Don’t Have to Text Us at Midnight)

  • For the dressed-up look: Solid colors always win. Black is classic, jewel tones are rich, and neutrals are timeless. Avoid patterns that look like optical illusions.

  • For the casual look: Keep it authentic—this is the “real life” you’ll want to remember. (Just maybe skip the ketchup-stained hoodie from last week’s Whataburger run.)

  • Shoes: Yes, we will see them in full-length shots. Yes, socks should match. Yes, we know you need to check the bottom for gum.

Why Book Now?

Simple: Immediate sales session. We show you your images right after your shoot, so you don’t have to wait weeks to fall in love. You’ll be able to pick your favorites, order prints, and walk out with your portraits in motion. (Well, not literally in motion, unless you order a GIF.)

So whether you're celebrating a milestone, saying goodbye to your college-bound kid, or just want a great photo where everyone looks good and nobody’s sweating—a studio session at Dos Kiwis is the way to go.

Come dressed to impress…and maybe bring snacks for the emotional mom moment. We get it.
