Photoshoot Prep Guide
You did it - you’re booked in for a beauty session! Now you might be thinking, what did I get myself into? There’s a lot that goes into a portrait experience and it can seem overwhelming. Here’s a guide to help you when prepping for your shoot - you can leave the rest up to us!
DAY OF YOUR SESSION
Arrive with a clean face and dry hair. It’s always helpful to do a light exfoliation on your face, even just with a washcloth. Let the makeup artist know if you have any sensitivities, and feel free to bring some inspiration photos for your makeup look.
Use clear deodorant & moisturize your body before your session.
Don’t forget to eat something and drink lots of water the day before.
A good night’s sleep will ensure you are refreshed for your photoshoot.
HANDS AND FEET
If you normally do your nails, get a manicure and pedicure before your session (or DIY at home). Your hands and feet will show in many of your images and we don’t want chipped polish!
HAIR COLOR/EYEBROWS
Having freshly trimmed and coloured hair and eyebrows done - if that’s your thing - will make you feel like a supermodel during your session!
APPOINTMENT TIME & RESCHEDULES
Please arrive on time for your appointment - not early!
Hair and makeup will take approximately 45 minutes to an hour so come prepared to be pampered for a while! Your photography session itself will take approximately 90+ minutes.
Since we are holding 3/4’s of a day for studio time, and our makeup artist’s time, your deposit is non-refundable and there is a $100 rescheduling fee; please allow a minimum of 7 day notice for rescheduling.
After your shoot, I will send you off to lunch for 90 minutes and then you’ll come back in and view and order you beautiful images. If you need help choosing…bring along your decision makers!
