-
HYDRATE in the week before your photo session and eat well. Many people don’t realize the importance of good hydration to your skin and its impact on energy levels.
-
SLEEP. Get plenty of rest, at least one good night’s sleep or more. Being well rested reduces stress and helps you maintain a positive attitude, which increases your confidence levels.
-
SKIN CARE. Avoid the sun for a few days before your session to avoid accidental sunburns. Use lip balm to maintain well-hydrated lips.
-
HAIR CARE. Get a trim a few days before your session.
-
FACIAL HAIR. If you normally wear facial hair, come with it trimmed. If you don’t normally wear facial hair, come freshly shaved.
-
MAKEUP. Cosmetics should enhance your features, even your skin tone, accentuate the eyes, and conceal any imperfections while remaining natural and matte.
-
CLOTHING. Select and try on all clothing choices before your session. Have a friend or spouse give you honest feedback. Bring your wardrobe changes in garment bags, ironed and pressed.
