3. The Shoot Day!
You’ll notice when you booked that the booking is for 2 hours, but I’m sure you’ll recall I said that a shoot usually lasts 45 minutes to an hour. So why so much extra time stress removal that’s the reason for so many of the choices that we make. Of course I want you to be on time but if you’ve booked a hair and makeup person they’ll need time to work on you. If your baby pukes on you as you’re about to leave the house I want you to know that it’s OK to fire me a text that say’s you’ll be 10 minutes late, this extra time has been accounted for. If you arrive in a whirlwind of stress I want you to have time in the studio to grab a coffee, calm down and let the colour of your face return to normal before we start.
So on the day when you arrive, I’ll be ready for you but we’ll rarely go straight in to shooting, unless you’ve told me that’s what you need/want. You’ll have time to unpack your paraphernalia hang up outfit changes so that they don’t get crushed in bags etc.
A fun, relaxed, stress free experience is the aim.
