Additional Options
If you would like additional assistance selecting what to wear, we can set up a call with our wardrobe consultant. She will review your closet, select options for your photoshoot, and may also advise you on pieces you could buy that would be perfect for you, if you like.
wardrobe consult
We can get many different looks from photos taken at the studio, but we can also do the photoshoot on location or split our time between the two. Let us know if you're interested in finding a background that means something to you or speaks more specifically to your brand.

Ways to Use Images
for Best Results
If you're envisioning having photos you treasure for a lifetime, it's important to plan ahead! Here are a few pro tips to help you get the most out of your photoshoot:
Treat this like a special event.
If you like to have your hair or nails done before events, take the opportunity to do so about 2 weeks before your photoshoot.
Do not fake tan.
The fake tanning chemicals end up looking orange on camera. Do not fake tan prior to your photoshoot.
Consider accessories.
Accessories can mean anything from your grandma's earrings to a laptop. What would bring your photo more meaning?
Do not be too trendy.
Unless you do photoshoots regularly, avoid trends in your wardrobe & styling. They will date the image as soon as the trends fade.
Bring your energy!
The camera doesn't lie. We will guide you through everything, but we need your energy to come through in the photographs!
