Tips For A Fabulous Photo Shoot

By Sheila Venancia

On a recent assignment doing hair and makeup for a photo shoot with Rick Sieminski Photography, I had the opportunity to speak with Rick about tips for a creating a fabulous photo shoot. Here is what he had to say:

Type Of Photo Shoot: Fashion (all about the clothes), Glamour (all about the client’s beauty), Boudoir (sexy and suggestive), High School Senior, Headshots, or Lifestyle are the most common types of photo shoot styles. Clearly communicating your ideas and expectations to the photographer early in the process, not upon arriving at the studio or photo shoot location, is imperative to a successful outcome.

Wardrobe Selection: Coordinate clothing colors according to the background. A beach shoot would call for light pastels and khakis. A shoot at a park would call for darker colors. The clothing needs to blend nicely with the background so the emphasis is on the subject. Avoid busy patterns and prints. These are not hard, fast, rules. Depending on the model, style of shoot, and artistic vision, these guidelines can and will be broken.

Diet: Don’t crash diet before your shoot as it will likely cause you to lose that healthy glow. Avoid greasy and salty foods at least two days prior to your shoot. This will prevent extra oily skin and bloating. Drink plenty of water, get plenty of rest, and avoid excessive alcohol 48 hours before your shoot. You want to look healthy and refreshed on the day of your shoot, not tired and hung over. Also, avoid beverages that will stain your teeth.

Aesthetic Preparation: Depending on your type of shoot, make sure to do any waxing/hair removal several days before the shoot. This will give your skin time for any irritation to disappear. Be sure to have well manicured nails. If you must have a color, keep it light and neutral.

The Day Before The Shoot: Make sure your wardrobe is together and everything is free from wrinkles, excessive “fuzzies”, and pet hair/dander. If you must fold your clothing, do so just before leaving for your shoot, and hang them back up immediately after arriving to the studio or photo shoot location.

The Day Of The Shoot: Wear comfortable, loose fitting clothes, to your shoot. The last thing you want are lines imbedded into your skin. If you’re having Professional Hair and Makeup, arrive with freshly cleaned hair (no product), and a clean face. Having Professional Hair and Makeup is HIGHLY ENCOURAGED, as this makes all the difference in your images. This can’t be emphasized enough! You may do your own hair and makeup just fine for everyday wear; but a Professional Hair and Makeup artist is trained, and knows what looks good (and not good) on camera. They know how to make you look your best! Bring light snacks with you as the shoot may take longer than anticipated to get that perfect shot.

And maybe most important of all, remember to bring your winning smile and your best attitude! Your energy and positivity will show in your images, and your photo shoot will be a fun and unforgettable experience! Lastly, relax, have a good time and enjoy your shoot!
