Ladies Prep
PREPARING FOR A SESSION THAT HAS A MAKE-UP ARTIST/HAIR STYLIST
- 1/2 days prior to the photshoot wash & blow dry you hair using no styling products if possible during those days and without putting it in a ponytail. (The natural oils in your hair will make your hair stay better for the hair stylist; hair that is not freshly washed is best. If you use styling products it may weigh down your hair and curls may not stay).
- 1 day prior to your photos please freshen up your nails with either completely natural clear looking polish or matching toes and hands.
- The day of please wash, exfoliate and moisturize your face. Do not apply any make-up of your own before your arrive. This will give the make-up artist (MUA) a clean palette to work with.
- Wear a button up shirt which you wont be heart broken if it gets make-up on it…this way when it is time to get dressed your hair & make-up won’t be destroyed.
- Please wear loose fitting comfortable clothes and no socks…because you will be wearing skirts/dresses in a lot of cases etc any tight fitting clothes including socks will have a tendency to leave marks on your body.
- Wear clear deodorant instead of white.
- Other general maintenance to do the morning of: shave (wax a day before so there is no redness), pluck, brush teeth, moisturize.
- Stay hydrated and eat for energy.
GENERAL PREP TIPS
- Avoid too much sun right before your session, red and tan lines are not usually a desired look for photos, sun burns on the face will look swollen. Orange tans are also something to avoid.
- While choosing wardrobe please keep in mind what body parts you do or do not want to be emphasizes. We suggest wearing 3/4 length shirts if you do not like your arms and full length pants or skirts if you do not want your legs to show. Black/dark colors typically thin the area they are on. Avoid strong/active/crazy fun patterns, these will make viewers look at your clothing instead of your photos.
- Make-up is suggested; bare minimum mascara and lip gloss. In photos we use lighting to bring out your eyes, without any make-up to add a little color faces can look washed out.
- It is OK to practice poses at home!! As a matter of fact we think its very helpful. We will be able to help you with our expertise in placement and body poses but your facial expression is very hard to explain. Just 10 minutes in front of a mirror while nobody is home can go a long way. Finding how to smile with not only your mouth but your eyes without crinkling your forehead can take a little practice at first. We will do our best to make sure you're having fun and your smile looks natural but it never hurts to check and see if you're smiling the way you'd like your pictures to reveal.
- Bring props that match your personality! Its the little things that make a big difference and sometimes include something personal can really add to a photo. If you have a special hobby and would like to include it in a fun way to your photos please let us know! We are very flexible and do like the diverse creativity that everyone has to offer.
Guys Prep
Yes, guys it is still important for you to prepare for photos as handsome as you are!
Please make sure that your face has been washed and moisturized with a non-shiny lotion.
Your nails should be clean
Please bring chapstick that is non-glossy & water if you have a tendency to get cotton mouth.
Clothing should be wrinkle free and stain free.
One of the most common wardrobe malfunctions we encounter with guys are shirts that are thin and show the under shirt (or nipples). It would be a good idea, especially if you are wearing a light color, to put it on and check in a mirror that you cannot see through the chosen shirt/s- unless of course that is the goal.
Avoid too much sun for a couple days before your photos please!
EAT!! Please eat & use the restroom before the shoot. This will help you be relaxed and able to enjoy your time. We wouldn't suggest eating to the point that you have to unbutton your pants but being in front of the camera takes energy.
Children Preparation
Please make sure your child has eaten, gone to the bathroom and has had their nap before their photo session. Those are the 3 magic ingredients to a happy smiling kido.
We suggest bringing snacks and/or extra formula incase we need a snack break - we don't mind taking a break...but if its chocolate you'll have to share (just kidding) Nothing is better than a reward at the end of the session and some snacks/rewards make fantastic photo ops! Like giant lollipops, gumdrops, even fruit can be fun if they are wearing an outfit that matches.
Please bring your child's sentiments that will make the photos even more memorable, if they have a favorite blanket, toy or even book we would love to include it in some of the shots. Playing with bubbles, airplanes, finger paints, coloring, playing on the playground can all be fabulous action shots to capture your child's personality a lot more than someone saying "smile" and they will probably think the photos are fabulous too if you let them enjoy being themselves instead of a stiff pose.
*if you have any tips on a way to make them laugh let us know in an email and we will try to pull it out of our sleeves if we need them to make a real smile. Thanks!
Pet Preparation
Please have your dogs well groomed for their photos. Bow Wow Beauty Shoppe in Hillcrest offers a discount for our clients if you get your dogs groomed with a week before their session! Just mention our name when you make your appointment :)
Please take your pet to the bathroom before the session.
We will need your help during the session to keep your pets attention and to get them to show off all of their fantastic tricks. We realize that a lot of animals respond differently to a stranger than their owner which is why we will need you there as a backup plan. *If your pet has a particularly short attention span sometimes holding off their morning meal and snacks will encourage better attention during our treat driven photo sessions.
Please bring your pets favorite treats & bottled water if needed, we typically provide treats as well but we know every animal has a different diet and we would like to make sure we do not disturb their digestive system while taking photos. Especially for dogs, if it is hot out water may be the only thing preventing your photos from having their tongue hanging out the entire time.
Your pet can wear outfits and have props in their photos! Bring toy or accessory you feel would make a great addition to a photo and we can take photos with the wide variety you bring. This is especially good if your pet is not very active because it will help your pets' photos look varied. Prop Ideas: toys of any sort, tennis ball, ropes, stuffed animals, blankets, your pets bed etc etc
Please do not have your pet in a harness, your photos will look much more natural if your pet can wear a collar to the session instead. Unless you like tags to be in the photos we do suggest removal of tags and encourage wearing your cleanest/cutest collar for the photos.
If we are meeting at a location that your pet may become wet or extremely dirty we also encourage bringing a towel and some wipes for their paws - just keeping your car in mind.
