Preparing For Your Session
- Since we have only 45 mins have hair & face ready to go when you arrive.
- How much to bring – Because of time restraints I would suggest to keep it under 5 different outfits.
- Get some rest. You want to be as fresh and relaxed as possible on your shoot day
- You CAN wear bright colors…especially shirts, ties, blouses.
- Do not wear WHITE as the outer garment unless you are a Doctor. Very few people look great in bright white.
- SIMPLE garments and SOLID colors look best. Tweeds and patterns are distracting.
- Light-grey, mid-grey, dark-grey…they all look GREAT.
- Medium to darker colors project a more business-like image.
- Avoid BOLD PATTERNS unless that is part of your “personal brand”. In that case…GO FOR IT!!!
- Avoid very wide or particularly deep V-neck garments as well as bulky cowl neck sweaters that completely hide the neck.
- Long sleeves are preferable as bare arms call attention to themselves and can overpower the face.
- Make up – If you desire a hair & make up artist it will be an additional $300 per person. It includes touch ups for first looks and skin prep.
- Women should keep make-up light and natural.
- We will COACH YOU to get the right EXPRESSIONS and make you feel comfortable. Even if you dislike being photographed we’ll make this E-A-S-Y!!! It’s easier than you think and less painful than a root canal
- Please bring your own hair-brush or comb to the shoot
- Our basic retouching (free) includes removing stray hair, reducing smile/age lines, brightening teeth and eyes.
- If possible, please arrive at the shoot wearing your first outfit. Changing cuts into your shoot time.
- You clothes should FIT well. No amount of retouching can replace a suit that fits. Remember…if you can’t button your suit coat…you should wear a larger coat.
