A perfect picture is like a beautifully layered cake—each detail adds to the final masterpiece. Your preparation for the photoshoot plays a crucial role in making sure every element comes together flawlessly. From grooming and wardrobe choices to small accessories, everything contributes to creating stunning images that you will cherish forever.
• Do epilation or shave armpits and legs, especially if you are thinking of doing nude or semi-nude shots.
• Get your nails and toes ready for the shoot. Your hands and feet will be in every image, so we want them to look fabulous. I recommend neutral colors or French manicures.
• I highly recommend professional makeup and hair. Not only will this make your photographer’s work easier, but you will also feel beautiful and confident at your session.
• Bring a nude (closest to your skin tone) strapless bra and nude underwear, black bra, and black underwear. Thongs are the best choice for underwear. If you would like any nude or partially nude photos and you feel shy, I suggest preparing a "Skip the line adhesive thong" (you can find them on Amazon).
• Bring a hairbrush, setting powder, lip gloss, and body lotion—we will apply it on your skin before the nude shots.
• Bringing a fresh bouquet of flowers can add a personal touch to the session, reflecting your personality or preferences, and making the photos more meaningful. For girls, I suggest a mix of pink flowers; if you are expecting a baby boy, a mix of white and blue is a good idea. Classy red roses also look great.
• For your husband, keeping it simple is usually the best. He can go with a basic shirt or t-shirt in white, tan, gray, black, beige, etc. Bring two outfits for him, with matching shoes—something dark and light, we will play with. No logos, stripes, or dots—plain shirts are usually the best choice.
• Bring one or two pairs of high heels—black and nude ones—or if you have something stylish and trendy.
• Drink water and eat light snacks frequently to keep your energy up and your skin supple. I keep water and snacks on hand for you, just in case you are too busy or overwhelmed getting ready, but please take breakfast.
• I always appreciate help during the session. If you're planning to come alone, please consider bringing your sister or a friend, as you may need assistance with tasks like changing, fixing your hair, applying lotion, etc. However, if you don't have anyone to bring, don't worry—I'm here to help you. If you're coming with a toddler, we will need some extra assistance, so please bring someone along as well.
• Get as much rest as possible the evening before!
Please, text me for confirmation 24 hours before the session if you don't receive any message from me.
And that's it, see you soon!
