Sometimes I get a call or a request for a Zoom meeting for consultation. Other times, clients schedule online and I follow up with an email to make sure that I’m ready for you when you arrive to the studio. I love a consultation ahead of time. Or, maybe you’re still shopping around for a photographer! I love that! You want to find someone who gets you.
When you arrive, you may go right into hair and makeup, or you’ve come camera ready. I always suggest, however, that you do have hair and makeup here, on set, so we can make changes as we go along. I’ll get you a drink, so you can stay hydrated. I’ll look at your wardrobe and steam and lint roll as necessary. We might look at a Pinterest Board for inspiration, or my website to see if anything in particular catches your eye. While you’re getting pampered, I’ll tweak my lighting and maybe get another set going so we can be as efficient as possible!
You look great, by the way!
I shoot to computer, so we can make sure eyebrows, eyelashes and everything else is in place. We work as a team. Oh, let’s try that black blouse, instead, I may suggest. It’s fun, it’s a process. Thank you for bringing your closet! We have so much to work with!
We all feel good about the shoot, we’ve gone from one set to another, adding or editing the wardrobe. We have a range of emotions and feelings; laughing, smiling, thoughtful.
In a few days, you’ll get your folders and you’ll then let me know what you want retouched. I’ll send back to you, high resolution files for you to use for your website or LinkedIn or your company’s website.
Thank you so much for trusting me, it really has been fun!
