Do: 1. Take two or three changes of clothing so you can experiment with contrasting colors before we begin. You only need the top half of the outfit for “head and shoulder” type headshots. 2. Ask me what color background we are using and what prime color would compliment it. 3. Tell me (before you arrive) the image you are trying to convey. What type business are you in? What is your corporate or business culture? Look at other photos of those in your company for samples to compare. If you are "not" a corporate type, let me know what type of look you want to portray. Maybe send me samples of stuff you like. 4. Dark clothes attract less attention and put the attention on your face and eyes. 5. Guys: if you have a heavy beard, shave right before arrival. 6. Guys: Do _bring_ something additional if you are adding a "casual" look (vs. just taking off a suit jacket and tie and trying to make your white shirt look casual.) Take along a button down, golf shirt, or something similar on a hanger so it is indeed "casual" but still fresh. 7. Be yourself! Have fun!
7. Don't wear a turtleneck (unless it is a _very good look for you_.) In general a v-neck style will be more attractive. 8. Don't wear a jacket you cannot button, or you have to stretch to be able to button. It will not look good and you will not feel good about it. Bring something that fits properly. 9. Don't over-do your makeup. And I don't mean the "style" of your makeup, I mean in the thickness and amount of application on your skin. 10. Don’t be afraid to ASK me / CALL me about any of these BEFORE you arrive.
