4. Drink plenty of water 24 hours before your session. This avoids dehydration and looking tired.
5. Practice, Practice! Do this in front of a mirror. Study your favorite poses from magazines and bring them to the shoot.
Within one week before photo session:
1. Identify clothing and props that you would like to use on the shoot. (i.e panties, lingerie, his favorite tie, team shirt, small pet (must have carrier)
2. Pamper yourself with a manicure and pedicure. They do show up in close ups!
3. Download songs in your ipod that get you in the mood and make you feel sexy and beautiful.
4. If you are planning to “tan” before your s hoot, do it a few days before. You don’t want to come out red in the images. If you are doing a spray, do this also a couple days before and make sure that there is an even job. (Remember: retouching does not erase tan lines)
5. Get a babysitter. Due to the nature of the shoot, children are not allowed.
24 Hours before the shoot:
6. Do NOT drink alcohol the night before. It will make you puffy the following day.
7. Get a good night’s sleep!
8. Wear loose clothing to prevent marks on skin. (i.e.come in a long t-shirt or robe over your lingerie)
9. When you do your hair, do not have hair covering your eyes. The eyes are very important for this type of photography in order to set the mood.
10. For a more sultry look, get the smoky eyes effect and a nude color on your lips. For a playful look, line your upper eye lid with well-defined eyeliner while keeping your shadow light and don’t forget the rich red or burgundy lips.
11. If you are going to have the big and sexy hair effect, wear your rollers to the shoot. This way your hair will be fresh.
12. Say YES to fake lashes! They work magic and look amazing in photos.
