HAIR! MAKEUP! CLOTHES! OH MY!

HAIR AND MAKEUP INCLUDED?! YEAH!

That's right! No need to find a HMU artist - WDYphotography is a one-stop shop. Before your shoot, I will do your hair and makeup, and we will get to know each other!
MEN: I do suggest hair and makeup. This is more grooming than makeup-ing. I make sure your skin isn't shiny, even out some possible skin discoloration, and set the hair. Remember, this is makeup to look like you're not wearing any makeup!
Don't want to use me? No problem- You are still welcome to bring someone else. *The same rate applies, whether you use my services or not.

MAKEUP AND HAIR - HOW DO I PREPARE?

Makeup: Please come with a clean face. If you would prefer wearing a simple makeup when you arrive, I can see if I can build upon what you've already done, or if I need to start from scratch. (Please no shimmers or glittery highlights!)


*If you plan on getting cut, dyed, facial'd, plucked or waxed, please leave at least a week in advance to do this before your shoot date. Becauase...you never know.


Hair: Try to arrive with "audition ready" hair. Certainly it doesn't have to be perfect, and I know that travel time will affect your perfect coif that you left your home with. But I can see what you do, and then build upon that. If you just aren't good with hair, no worries! I will be able to do it no matter how you show up.

  • Hair: Please come with DRY hair! I can do a blow-out look without having to start from scratch.
  • Hair: I recommend after washing your hair (either the night before, or that day--whatever your preference is), to add some mousse before drying, or add a little texturizing spray or texturizing dry shampoo to your dry roots. This will make your hair a lot easier to manage and style!

WHAT DO I WEAR?!

Don't stress! The most effective pieces of clothing you can bring are the simplest. Because the environment depicts the mood of the shots (along with your expression), your clothes can be kept to the basics. 

Here are the never-go-wrong options:

  • Tops with lower necklines (I usually will never go with a turtleneck option!). 
  • Tops that match your exact eye color, or at least compliment your eye color. (If you have bright blue eyes, a purple top will clash with your eye color--and we want to keep the focus on your eyes without competition!)
  • For more professional looks, bring Jackets/Blazers. Men, bring button down shirts.
  • Avoid anything too bulky. It will make you look...well...bulky!
  • Don't worry about shoes unless we are doing full body shots (including feet). This would not happen in a typical head shot session. But if you feel powerful and strong in a different pair of shoes (a fab power heel or those boots that rock your world), by all means, bring them! If it effects how you feel, that will translate in your energy with the camera.
  • Wear pants that are comfortable, but that could also be complimentary for any 3/4 body shots. This can mean a nice fitting pair of jeans. 
  • Usually, it's the simplest t-shirts, tank tops, or that last thing you just threw in your bag on your way to the session that usually works the best!

LIFESTYLE/COMP CARDS

These sessions are a little different than a normal headshot session, because in addition to your headshots, we will shoot 2-4 other looks/types that will be used for print work. *Please note, Actors--you can achieve different looks without having to do a comp card during your regular headshot session*
Before booking a comp card session, really know what specific types you are going for. Some examples could be:

  • Detective
  • CEO/High End Professional
  • Upper East Side rich
  • Williamsburg Hipster
  • Urban/Street/Lower economic scale
  • Medic, Doctor, Cop, Fire Fighter, etc.: Bring the actual attire! (i.e. scrubs, lab coat, jackets, helmets).

Please do NOT consider the following types unless you could actively work in these industries or believably portray them:

  • Athlete: Yoga/Running/Boxing/Weights
  • Lingerie/Swimsuit/Body 

Many of these looks might require some accessories, such as purses, jewelry, different shoes, etc. You will be able to change hair and slight makeup changes in accordance to your looks.

STUDIO TIME

Please remember that when you come to the studio, we are there on a strict adherence to time. So please, do not be late! If you are, there is no guarantee that we can get the space for a longer amount of time since it is subject to availability. Thank you!
