Photo Tips

Here are some tips to ensure you get the best pictures, and the best memories!

 

Practice posing: Sounds obvious, but if you don’t know your best angle, your photographer won’t either!  If you’re going to pose, exaggerate each movement and pose from head to toe.  Throw your hip out as far as possible if your weight is on one leg.  

Push your shoulder forwards to accentuate collarbones, and always smile!

 

Boudoir tips​



What to wear?

 

Choose something that you are COMFORTABLE in. Nothing is less sexy than constant adjusting of hemlines and straps, and it will show on your face if you’re not feeling your best. Choose a bodysuit, babydoll or sheer chemise if you’re worried about your tummy. Alternatively, just wear your most sexy and alluring cocktail dress, and pose away! Make sure that you change into a variety of outfits 

so that you make the most of the session and have a selection of beautiful, vibrant pictures to choose from.

You can add some cute little touches which are personal to yourself. Perhaps a piece of jewelry like a long necklace or a prop from a hobby that you enjoy or costumes. The possibilities are endless, and it makes the photoshoot so much 

more personal and special for you.

Hair & Makeup tips



Makeup:

 

Do your makeup carefully.  The flash will wash out your colour, so make sure that you contour your cheekbones, and sweep some bronzer or dark foundation under your jawline to contrast the flash and make you look slimmer.  Make sure you highlight your eyes, and wear false eyelashes for beautiful fluttering lashes.

 

Hair:

 

Having your hair down is usually best.

Big beautiful curls or sleek and straight hair.
