5 Steps to Help You Prepare for Your Dream Shoot

Thank you so much for scheduling a session with me at Chappell Studio Portraits! I cannot wait to work with you. To help us both prepare for your shoot, I’ve created a step-by-step guide that details exactly what needs to be done prior to your session. 

I’m including a summary of the guide below to give you an idea of what to expect.

Step 1 – Tell me all the details!

Do you have a vision for some type of creative session that you’ve always dreamed of or just an idea of what you’d like your family photos to look like? Whether you’re sending me dream boards or a link to your favorite Pinterest pins, I want it all! 

The more I know, the better I’ll be able to deliver when it comes to your final gallery.

Step 2 – A week before your session.

Take a quick photo of the wardrobe you plan to bring with you, so that I get an idea of what you’re going to wear before you arrive. If you have any questions or need suggestions, please give me a call and we’ll talk it out.

Do your best to avoid any sun that will create tan lines or adjust your wardrobe accordingly to compensate for them.

Step 3 – A day or two before your session.

Have your nails and toenails clean, polished, and trimmed.

Step 4 – The day of your session.

Wear loose fitting clothing to prevent any crazy marks on your skin. Arrive at the studio about ten minutes early with no make-up on and clean hair.

Here are a few items you’ll want to bring along with you:

  • A favorite playlist on your phone if you have one.
  • Any accessories that we can add to your wardrobe (feel free to bring extras, we’re flexible!)
  • Your wardrobe – all the clothes we’ve chatted about and anything else you find along the way.

Step 5 – Relax!

Your time with me is meant to be relaxing and empowering. While you’re at the studio, I expect you to sit back, relax, and be pampered. This is your day. It is your time to shine.

I want you to walk away from your session feeling like the amazing human you are!
