Mindfully pick your outfits.
Pay attention to the details and make sure they are align with the set or location. Days before the shoot, try your entire outfit on and make sure that you won’t have any last minute issues, like wrinkled fabric or stuck zipper. Don’t forget that accessories such as hand fans or parasols can complement your look and you could also use them as props.
Get a Manicure and Pedicure.
The last thing that you want is to realize that your nails look terrible after you’ve received your proofs, just try not to do it the same day of your shoot, hence our next item.
Give yourself enough time.
Try to keep your schedule open for the day of your photoshoot, and think about it as a treat to yourself. Be on time, be ready and be totally there, physically and mentally.
Schedule your beauty treatments.
They should be done at least a week prior to your photoshoot. Especially if you are trying something new. Think about roots touch up, Botox or fillers, and the same applies to new makeup or lotions. You don’t want to risk having skin irritations or redness at the last minute.
Remove any and all unwanted hair.
Shave it, trim it, tweeze it or wax it, but get rid of it, just don’t do it the same day to avoid red or burnt skin marks.
Be comfortable.
Bringing flats, a robe or a button-up top is highly recommended. You want to be comfortable walking around the set, and you don’t want to be worried about ruining your hair or makeup when changing outfits.
And finally, enjoy the journey, planning could be one of the most exciting parts of a photoshoot and you can use it as an opportunity to discover or embrace your creative side. All the effort and preparation will pay off, trust us girl… it shows!
