Shoot prep

How long is a shoot?
For a standard 3 roll headshot shoot I book 2 hour time slots with an extra hour if hair and make up is to be done at the studio.

What should I wear?
The biggest taboo is all white. White acts as a reflector and bounces light. Something light will look white. Busy patterns are not recommended and NO logos. Solids are best, more darks are preferred but some light items can make for fabulous shots on a dark background. If you’re not sure on what to bring, it’s better to bring a little too much than to run short.

How would your make up artist like me to arrive?
My make up artist will want you to show up with a clean face with no make up on. Anything you have on, will have to come off. We want you to do your hair as close to the way you will want it in your shot. This way my hair dresser won’t have to dream up a doo for you that may not look like you usually have it. Instead, he will finesse your existing style to make your hair look as good as possible.
