How should I prepare for my session?

We’ll send you a comprehensive prep guide after booking, but in short:

• Choose solid-colored, new or well-fitted clothes that make you feel confident.

• Bring multiple looks (we’ll help choose on the day).

• New clothes work best!

• Stay hydrated, rested, and arrive camera-ready.

• Consider professional hair & makeup for polished results.
