What should I wear?
Upon booking your session, I will send you an email that gives you wardrobe guidelines prior to your shoot. I am happy to provide any personal consultation by phone.

Is a makeup artist required?
Although using a professional Makeup Artist is not required, it is strongly recommended, especially for women. Even if you are skilled at doing your own makeup, doing makeup for on camera lighting is different. Upon booking your session, I will send you an email that gives you makeup guidelines prior to your shoot.
If you are doing your own makeup, you should come to your session face ready with makeup or hair supplies with you.
If you would like a Makeup Artist, I am happy to provide referrals. Having a Makeup Artist for the entire shoot allows you to focus on direction and looking your best and not worry about touch ups or stray hairs.
07/
What kind of background can I have?
You can shoot in my studio located in Hancock Park/Central LA where I have studio lighting and a variety of backdrops. You can also opt to shoot at an outdoor location near my studio. Feel free to contact me if you have an idea or particular background in mind.

Should I get retouching?
