How to prepare for your photo shoot

 SOOOO… How do you prepare for your photo shoot? I have compiled a list for you to follow so your photo shoot will run smoothly and be AWESOME!

1) Make sure you have had a hair and nail appointment at least three days before our session.

2) If you are going to tan do that a couple of days before our session as well. This is your personal preference, I think your skin is perfect just the way it is! Please do not do self-tanners unless you know exactly how to do it. DO NOT show up to our session streaky.

3) You should already have your ten outfits picked out, but now is the time to make sure all of your accessories, shoes, and undergarments are gathered together and packed so you do not leave them behind. (My very next blog will show you how to efficiently pack your clothing and accessories… AKA NOT throwing everything in a suit case- 😉 )

4) All of your outfits should be hung AND ironed! If an outfit is not ironed we will NOT be using it. With the amount of volume of images we have it is impossible to Photoshop all of the wrinkles out of an outfit in several images.

5) It is always good to practice your faces in the mirror, (funny I know), But seriously it really does help!

6) Your makeup is being professionally done, however it’s always good to bring some of yours for touchups throughout our session.

7) Don’t forget to eat a healthy meal beforehand so you don’t pass out on our session.

8) Get a good night’s rest the night before.

If you make sure you do these things before our session, everything will run smoothly! Preparation is key!
