General Tips: What to do
• Get plenty of rest the night before your session.
• Keep your skin hydrated. Drink plenty of water during the week of your session.
• If getting your hair cut, plan it at least a week before your shoot. We want to make sure your hair has time to fill in.
• On the day of the session try to avoid being in a rush. Prepare the night before and check the address on your GPS before the day of your shoot.
• Bring a comb or hairbrush along with any emergency touch up items, such as: hairspray, pomade, hair clips/pins, extra makeup/face powder, etc.
• Come ready to have fun! We’re going to have a great time getting to know each other and taking some awesome shots in the process.
Clothes: What To Wear
- Your face and eyes need to stand out most in your headshot, that’s why I suggest you bring clothes that have solid, neutral colors that complement your skin tones.
- Formal dressing seems more professional and serious for CV and linkedin portraits.
- When selecting shirts, you can choose some that have a different vibe and different collars.
What To Avoid
• Clothing with logos (little ones are ok, like that alligator guy).
• Busy patterns or distracting fabrics that take the attention away from your face.
• Overly bright clothing. Your color choices can reflect color on your skin.
• Accessories or jewelry that is distracting in shape or color. Remember, the focus is on you. Keep it simple.
