Settle in and we’ll start your session

To help your session flow , here are a few do’s and don’ts 💛

Since sessions run 30 or 60 minutes, a little planning ahead helps us make the most of it.

Do’s

  • bring 2 to 3 contrasting outfits, plus one backup just in case.

  • choose looks that feel like you. Confidence & Connection, it shows.

  • move & groove. Think flow, not posing. Small movements make a big difference.

  • check in with your agent if you have one, especially on wardrobe or vibe.

  • get rest, hydrate, moisturize, and exfoliate before your session.

  • make sure your hair is camera ready.

    bring glasses if they are non-glare or frames without lenses. (no worries, if not)

  • have fun with it. Headshots can feel intimidating, totally normal. But here we give you all the support, guidance and coaching.

Don’ts

  • Don’t arrive more than 10 minutes early. This helps us respect sessions already in progress.

  • Don’t stress about shoes or hats. They usually are not needed.

  • Don’t overthink it. Preparation matters, but presence matters more.
