If You booked a photo shoot, it's important that you look and feel your best on the day. It will boost your mood, help you relax and look great in photos.
Everything listed below (and more) will be mentioned during your consultation, but if you need a reminder, or haven't booked with me yet, I have a few tips on what you can do to prepare.
Few days ahead
hydrate
drinking plenty of water will help you look and feel younger and energised.
Moisturise
keep your skin moisturised, not just your face, but neck, arms legs - for healthy looking skin and that glorious glow.
think hair
were you planning on dyeing your roots or trimming ends? Have them done shortly before your session.
tan
avoid harsh sunlight and use lotion with spf filter on the run up to the shoot, to prevent redness in your skin or fresh tan lines.
nails
make sure your nails look clean and tidy.
eyebrows
if you get them plucked or threaded, have it done a day or two before your session to avoid redness in that area (same goes for any other body hair).
wardrobe
decide on your outfits a few days ahead, pick things you like and feel good in.
ideas
always discuss your photo ideas and vision with the photographer well ahead of time.
Prepare a selection of outfits to ensure variety
On the day of your session
sleep
if possible, get plenty of sleep to feel and look rested.
hydrate
yup, keep sipping on water, your skin will thank you!
eat
coming to your session hungry will make it a lot less enjoyable (and won't make you look slimmer if that's what you're worried about). Eat as normal to keep your energy up, or even bring a snack.
underwear
it should match your clothing. If you picked out a few outfits, make sure you have matching underwear for each.
make-up
wear a nice, neutral make-up that you feel good in. Generally less is more. Avoid contouring and anything with shimmer - it won't photograph well and will reflect light. Bring your make-up with you for touch ups.
hair
clean, dry hair is a must. Have it styled the same day, or if you're styling it yourself, add volume and texture (depending on your hair type of course!). We'll discuss styling options during your consultation.
accessories
don't forget to bring any items you'd like to be photographed with. Favourite pair of earrings? Vintage watch? Award or trophy? We can include items that have a special meaning to you.
good mood
if you don't typically enjoy being photographed, try to relax, even get excited, think of it as pamper time! I'll do my best to put you at ease and address any worries you might have.
Preparation is key!
