What should I do for my hair and makeup?
We have a full hair stylist and makeup artist that we work with here on site that will create a beautiful look for you. If you would like multiple looks, and styles, an additional fee would be required to keep them for other looks. If you decide to do your own makeup, the things I would say is, Go stronger then you think, its glamour type portraits so you want to look more done up then every day. Also, limit the shimmer makeup to your eyes and lips, if you put it all over your body, face included, it just takes that much more work for us to edit it out because the lights reflect on those shimmer spots and it doesn't look flattering for the most part. Eyes and lips yes though! Also be sure to bring powder and lipstick or gloss to repapply. The lights are warm so they make you shine.
We totally recommend everyone using our hairstylist, as she's familiar with the lights and studio environment. She is Brooke from Salon 3 forty 1 right here in Dallas. We also have a makeup artist on hand as well.
Can we bring a friend?
Definitely! If your friend wants in the shots, they do have to have their own session, but just to tag along, totally fine! We encourage you to bring friends, it helps you relax! Plus, its a win win for us, she sees how much fun you have and how beautiful you look, and she's sold :)
What about my husband or boyfriend?
I prefer to have all females in studio at the time of shoot. I feel its a very close intimate environment and would like to maintain that all female staff and clientèle base as well as guests, at this time. If you have a special circumstance you'd like to discuss, feel free to email.
What do we bring?
Bring multiple outfits that you feel you look sexy in. Try to bring outfits that are not too tight for you that leave marks, but if they just emphasize by holding you in, great! Bring lots of accessories, shoes, belts, hair pieces, fun hats, anything funky and sexy bring it! If you have a shirt of your husbands you can bring that, as well as a jersey or ball from his favorite sport. Bring some things you want to be sexy but yet flirty and if you want to go ultra sexy, thats fine, I do nude photographs at a request, as well as very classy conservative shoots as well. You can bring a sexy dress or nightgown, anything goes. Another great idea is jeans and a sexy little tight shirt, or a bra and jeans!
If you need ideas of where to shop for outfits, think of places like Victoria Secret, Fredricks of Hollywood, and those sort of shops. If your local in Hiram theres a new shop called "The Gift Spot", its on HWY 278 and has a huge line of gorgeous corsets, some super sexy costumes, as well as legwear and shoes. They have just about everything you could want for outfits, and its maybe 12 minutes from the studio.
