Frequently Asked Questions
I don’t know how to pose…
You’re in the right place then!
Pretty much every person you see on our website told us this during our initial chat. The good thing is it’s not your job to know how to model.
Our photoshoots are fully guided. You don’t need to know how to pose, it’s my job as a professional photographer to put you in natural and believable poses.
What if I never look good in photos and feel awkward in front of the camera?
If you don’t know what to do and find it hard to relax, it can surely result in awkward photos.
Our process is personalized to your needs and we actually meet with you before your photoshoot to break the ice and to hear about your needs and concerns so we can achieve great results! Our process includes: Your Consultation, Photoshoot and Reveal and you can learn more about it here.
Photography is an art and through the right use of light, angles and lenses we can capture the best photos you’ve ever seen of yourself.
It’s absolutely normal to feel nervous about having your photos done, but I can promise you that thanks to our gentle process and expertise, you will leave… wanting more!
I’d like to look slimmer in my photos
Not a problem! We’ll use a special lens and will pose you in a slimming way.
I need a headshot, but I want it to be authentic to me and not generic.
A great headshot is very important to every professional. A series of experiments by Princeton psychologists Janine Willis and Alexander Todorov reveal that all it takes is a tenth of a second to form an impression of a stranger from their face (!). A photo can say a thousand words and every professional needs to put the right image out there.
I absolutely agree your headshot should be authentic and not generic. To achieve that, we consult about your wardrobe during your Brand & Wardrobe Consultation before your photoshoot so we can decide which type of a headshot will work for you: timeless, branded or creative?
You can read more about our headshot philosophy here: The Art of the Headshot
What should I wear?
We talk about your wardrobe in detail during Your Consultation before your photoshoot because the better the wardrobe, the better the photos.
If you’re doing a Personal Branding Photoshoot, we will make sure you’re bringing the right clothes for your brand.
For Portrait Photoshoots, you can also use creative outfits and gowns from our Studio Wardrobe.
Should I go tanning before my photoshoot?
If you want to have a bit of tan for your photoshoot, we recommend tanning beds. Spray tan and self tanners can make skin look very orange in photos.
Also, it’s very important to avoid tan lines.
