-
Set your face up for success: hydrate by drinking plenty of water the day before, abstain from alcohol the night before, get your body’s required amount of sleep in the week leading up to our time together. Professional makeup services are always encouraged. Let us be your one-shop stop; our hair and makeup artists are the best.

Clothing: do you have a particular color you wear that almost always attracts compliments? That’s the winner, meaning the color you should incorporate into your headshot portrait. The closer to your face the better. Speaking of clothing: please wear well-fitting attire. Too tight? Very rarely a good look, however, neither is too big. Clothes that swallow you (even if that’s what you think you want) do nothing but add poundage. Also, flowing sleeves may be magical in person when you’re in motion, however, they are just too much in a still portrait. When the sleeves of an outfit blend into the body it creates one big mass with no separation.

Prep that perfectly tailored outfit by pressing and rolling for lint beforehand. Everyone gets a little PhoTox love, but the better prepared you come, the easier it is on all of us.
-
Less is more. Simple clothing and accessories create a timeless portrait and a portrait where your face is the main focus. Chunky jewelry and crazy patterns are not usually invited to the professional portrait party unless they are part of your brand. That does not mean; however, that your portraits need to be boring. Colors or patterns splashed under a solid-colored sports coat or jacket create a great look. When in doubt, pack a suitcase. You and your photographer can make some educated decisions.

Keep in mind, we will set you up for success. We are experts in angles, lighting, and posing. If you do your part in preparing for our time together, we’ve got you on the photography end.
