Hints and Tips – Portfolio Shoots 1

Hints and Tips Portfolio Shoots 1

In this session we are looking at preparation so its about hair – its about make up and its about jewellery selection

Just a few pointers as part of a series of hints and tips to guide you in the right direction

Hair and Make Up

– Hair should be washed and conditioned prior to the session – this will eliminate “fly away” hair and also create a nice shine

– Hair should be worn in a “natural” style and should not be “delicate”

– Makeup should be minimal – especially around the eyes and lips. Please DO NOT conceal blemishes excessively – they can always be removed in post production

– Keep your make up fresh – don’t rub your eyes

– Keep your lips moist

– Brightly coloured make up should not be used – stick to more neutral colours

– Jewellery – generally this will detract – as a general rule keep it minimal and discuss it in advance with the photographer
