Getting your headshot taken is a career investment. A great headshot will aid in your booking
a job. Here are some answers to frequently asked questions to help you prepare.
How do I prepare
for my photo shoot?
Get plenty of rest and try to avoid alcohol and coffee a couple of days
prior to your shoot. They dehydrate your skin, which will be reflected on your photographs. Prepare
your clothing the night before so you have no worries the next day.
What are the photo shoots
like?
In order to capture the best headshot photographs, you have to be relaxed and comfortable.
I create an immediate environment of comfort. Though what we are doing that day is very important and
serious for your career, we have fun with it!
What should I wear?
Bring clothing
that you love, that make you feel amazing. I always recommend a comfortable pair of jeans (we don't
see them). Bring more clothing than you need just in case. I do help on the day of the shoot with the
final selections.
Pastels and earth tones are great when your choosing your colors. Make
sure your clothes are neat, wrinkle and spot free. Try to avoid vibrant colors such as hot pink,
coral red, neon green. These colors are very bold and will partially take will take the attention away
from you. No logos or heavy patterns and also try to avoid spaghetti straps as they can sometimes make
you look almost nude.
What about makeup and hair?
Having a makeup/hair stylist on
set is very helpful. Naturally it is always your choice. A makeup artist will create a look that
will match you and work for photography. They can hide blemish's, and balance out uneven skin tones.
