Head Shots and Portrait Sessions – What to Bring, What to Wear

If you’re getting professional headshots taken, or if you’re having a professional photographer do a portrait session for you, here are the things you might find beneficial to know in advance…

How To prepare Before Your Shoot:

Two Tone Wedding Bands

- Get a good night’s sleep the night before. This isn’t always the easiest thing to do, but it’s beyond doubt leading to try. The more rested you are, the good you’ll look.

- Drink plenty of water at least an hour or two before your session. Hydrated skin looks much healthier than dry skin. Try not to drink too much coffee that day and avoid eating greasy, salty or fatty foods for at least a day or two before your shoot.

- Apply moisturizer. Men as well as women should use this tip. Moisturizer prevents your face from finding dry and it gives your skin a fresh, smoother texture. Use a plain moisturizer without any color or shine in it. Be sure to do this before you apply any makeup or powder.

What To Bring:

1- A comb or brush and a light hair-spray. Heavy sprays and gels make your hair look unnatural and stiff, so something with a light hold is a good idea.

2- A light face powder (yes, also for men) and a powder applicator. This is to reduce any shine on your face that may build up while your shoot. Make sure the powder is a good match for your skin tone.

3 – A plain lip-balm. For men (or women who prefer not to wear much or any makeup), bring a lip-balm. Dry lips show up very badly in photos. A non-shiny, non-waxy, no-color lip-balm is essential! Avoid chapsticks and beeswax lip-balms, as they tend to leave a white residue.

4- If you ordinarily wear makeup, bring it with you. Blush, concealer, eye-shadow, mascara, lipstick etc. Be sure to bring a few different shades of eyeshadow and lipstick, as some colors may not look as well on camera as others. Avoid anyone with too much gloss or shine. In particular, don’t wear high gloss lipsticks or very shiny lipgloss. Also avoid any face creams, bronzers or blushes that include any sort of shine or sparkle. These often look too unnatural and reflect too much light in photos.

5- Deodorant. If your session is indoors or in a studio, you can ordinarily expect to be under warm lights for quite some time. You don’t want to have perspiration stains in your photos, so remember to apply an extra ‘layer’ of deodorant right before your session begins.

6- A toothbrush or dental floss. Just in case you have the remnants of your last meal stuck in your teeth!

7- Eyedrops. Sitting and not doing much blinking for any period of time, can be very irritating for your eyes. Especially if you’re in intriguing light of any kind. Red, watery or puffy eyes will ruin your photos, so having eyedrops with you is needful for your photo session. Chances are, you won’t need to use them, but it’s good to have them just in case you do.

What To Wear

For headshots, it’s usual to have at least two or three different ‘looks’. These tend to be

1: Casual and informal.

2: Elegant and slightly formal.

3: Edgy and/or unusual. This means you should bring the following clothing choices:

1- Casual and informal Clothes. A uncomplicated shirt (or sweater) and jeans, is always a good bet here. Important: Do not wear shirts with logos, brand names or any obviously printed words on them. These draw the eye away from your face, which is the last thing you want in a head shot! Do not wear work-out clothing or sweats, although a plain hoodie is fine. Make sure your jeans are basic as well. No applique, no artfully splattered paint or bleach marks and if there are rips or holes, make sure they’re small and fairly unnoticeable.

2- Elegant and slightly formal Clothes. A well tailored jacket and a well tailored shirt is a very good choice for men. For women, a fashionable, figure-flattering top, dressy sweater, nice trousers, or casual cocktail style of dress is a good choice.

If your headshots are for acting, online dating sites, etc., you don’t want look as if you’re going to a job interview. You do want to wear what you would for a nice dinner party or event. Dark colors are best for this look.

When you’re choosing what to wear, ask yourself either you want your photos to look corporate or not. Women: If you don’t want a business-like look, don’t wear button-up shirts. Men: If you don’t want a business-like look, don’t wear a tie.

3- Edgy and unusual Clothes. Particularly for actors, musicians and entertainers who have a unique look or play a broad range of performances of any kind. For this ‘look’, bring the clothes that define your particular style. If you are from a specific ethnic background and have customary clothing (saris, kimonos, sarongs, etc.), bring those! If you prefer to dress in vintage clothing, bring your popular vintage suit or dress. anyone your style, bring the outfit, accessories and makeup that you feel beyond doubt exemplifies your individuality.

As for what to wear for a portrait session, the range is a bit more broad. It depends entirely on what type of portraits you’re getting. However, the following rules will still apply…

A Few Basic Rules For Any Photography Session:

1- Colors which look great on almost everybody: White, black, and greys are always a good choice. For color, choose earth-tones (reds and browns) and jewel-tones (turquoise and most blues). obvious pastels are also good: light blues, lavenders and pinks.

2- Colors to avoid: For most people, khakis, greens, oranges, dark purples and yellows are not flattering to the skin and should not be worn for photos. (However, if you are an irregularity to that rule, by all means, bring the colors that suit you best.)

3- Clothing choices to avoid: Large, bold prints, logos or patterns. Again, these draw the eye away from your face, which is not a good thing. You don’t want your outfit to dominate your photos. Don’t wear clothing that is too loose or too clingy. Very loose clothing and very tight clothing both have the succeed of unflatteringly altering the shape of your body. Shiny fabrics should generally be avoided as well, anyone with a lot of shine will reflect light and tends to overemphasize the figure.

4- Do not over-accessorize. Keep it simple. Too many extra visuals will detract from your face, which should be the only focal point in your pictures. If you have one particular piece of jewelery you’d like to wear, don’t wear any other pieces with it. A big, bold necklace can sometimes look beyond doubt wonderful, but not if it’s also worn with big, bold earrings. Small, basic earrings, one or two uncomplicated rings, and no necklace are ordinarily the best choice for women. Just a watch and one ring (if you wear any) is ordinarily the best choice for men.

5- Heavy application of perfumes or body-sprays before your session is not a good idea. If you must wear a scent, wear much less than you ordinarily would. Many citizen have allergies to scents, and you don’t want a photographer who is trying to take your photo through watering eyes and sneezing fits.

Although there are a lot of things to factor in here, they’re all quite simple. If you keep these tips in mind, you’re obvious to look and feel your best for your professional photography shoot!

These can include rubbing his nose, playing with his tie, sliding rings over fingers, and fiddling with loose coins in his pocket. Adjusting his hair is a sign that he is wanting to look good for you.

8:Checking out your butt. If you catch your date checking out your butt when you leave the table to visit the bar or bathroom, then they are having lustful thoughts.

9: Symbolically stripping. Undoing buttons, loosening ties, removing jackets and pushing up sleeves are all strong sexual body language gestures. Publicly undressing without realizing it ,is mum nature’s way of getting us naked with man we share sexual chemistry with.

10: Touching. Unsure where the date is going? Try the touch test. Touch their hand, arm or shoulder. Unless they are shy, they should return the touch within 10 minutes if they like you.

On a good first date , there should be three sets of touching for three seconds each time.

11: The wineglass. The date is a winner if he is rubbing the rim of his glass with his fingers. Likewise, if she is stroking her glass up and down. If she is also production direct eye caress and playing with her straw she is surely flirting. However, wine glasses held at chest height or higher are a sign that there will not be a second date. Likewise, if your date wraps both their hands nearby their glass.

The wineglass test. This is a great subconscious body language test to gauge that first date. Start playing with an object from your side of the table eg: wineglass, spoon etc. Lean forward just slightly and subtly move it just onto your date’s side of the table. Take off your hands, lean back and keep talking. If your date absentmindedly pushes it back to you they are not interested. If they leave it where it is, or hold it, you are in luck. To take it further, push another object their way and leave your arms on the table. The keen date will now lean forward as well and push something from their side of the table over to you.

12: Kiss, kiss. All these are strong signals that your date is receptive to a kiss: touching their mouth, licking their lips, putting their head close to yours, eating and drinking seductively, and tilting their head while seeing at you.

Start the kiss with a soft light brush against their lips. If they pull back, clench their lips or slap your face, you should stop! If they lean in, part their lips or touch the back of your neck they are happy to continue.

The art of flirting straight through nonverbal communication has never been easier! Use this dating guidance for interpreting body language and sending out your own sexual signals. Flirt that first date into a second date!

Happy Flirting! Coco Swan.

Tips on Picking a Wedding Band

Getting married is a life-changing event, and your wedding reception should be a celebration of your love and newly formed union. One of the most important elements of your wedding is the music. Music sets the tone and adds that something extra to your reception. DJs and sound systems are common ways that couples incorporate music. Another alternative that couples opt for is live music, which has its own set of considerations. Here are a few tips that will help you find a wedding band for your special day.

First, decide on the type of music that will best fit your wedding. Raucous pop music may be more fitting for a true party-like reception in a penthouse suite than a garden affair. At the same time, consider your own musical tastes. This is your day, so it’s best to decide what you and your spouse want to hear and dance to. Also take into account the venue in which your reception is to be held. A four-string quartet might be lost in the bustle of a large ballroom, but would be the perfect complement to a cozy, smaller setting.

Two Tone Wedding Bands

Next, do your homework and search for bands that not only fall within your criteria but that also work with your budget. If possible, come up with several different options for the style and size of your band. That way, you will be sure to find something you like within your price range. When searching for your band, the internet and referrals are the two best sources of information. Ask friends or relatives about the band they chose. You can’t get any more valuable feedback than that of a past customer.

Once you’ve narrowed down your list to two or three possibilities, schedule a time to hear the bands in person. Recorded music can be modified to sound better, so hearing the band play live before booking them for your wedding is your best bet to getting the music you’re dreaming of to set the tone for your wedding.
