Preparing for your Flirty Frames photoshoot should be exciting, not stressful! Whether it's your first time or you’re returning for another fun session, this guide will help you feel confident, ready, and empowered. From choosing your wardrobe to skincare tips, here’s everything you need to know to make the most of your experience with Flirty Frames.
1. Choose the Perfect Outfits
Your wardrobe is a key part of your session, so choose outfits that make you feel amazing and reflect the mood you want to capture.
Be True to You: Wear something that makes you feel like your best self, whether it’s a cute dress, a cozy sweater, or a little bit of lingerie. Confidence is key!
Coordinate with the Theme: If you’re doing a seasonal shoot (like our upcoming fall park or 'Christmas Red Room'), consider colors and styles that match the theme.
Bring Options: For most sessions, you’ll have time for outfit changes. Feel free to bring 2-3 options—this gives variety to your photos and allows us to experiment with different looks.
Accessorize Thoughtfully: Hats, jewelry, and scarves can add flair to your photos. Consider bringing accessories that complement your outfits without overpowering them.
2. Skincare & Beauty Prep
Glowing skin is always in, and a little prep can go a long way!
Hydrate: Drink plenty of water in the days leading up to your session to keep your skin hydrated and glowing.
Exfoliate: Use a gentle exfoliant the night before your shoot to give your skin a smooth, fresh look. Avoid harsh treatments right before the shoot to prevent redness.
Moisturize: Keep your skin soft and supple with a good moisturizer, especially in the morning before the session.
Hair & Makeup: Whether you plan to do your own or hire a professional, keep your look aligned with the vibe of the session. A fresh, natural look is great for outdoor shoots like our fall park theme, while more dramatic makeup might work well for 'Christmas Red Room.'
Pro Tip: If you’re doing your own hair and makeup, do a trial run a few days beforehand so you know exactly what you want on the day of the shoot.
3. Rest Up & Relax
You want to feel energized and relaxed during your session, so some self-care leading up to the shoot is essential.
Get a Good Night’s Sleep: Try to get a full night’s rest before your session. Not only will you feel better, but you’ll also avoid looking tired or stressed in your photos.
Relaxation Techniques: If you're feeling nervous, try breathing exercises or meditation to calm your mind. You can even bring a friend along for support!
Stretch It Out: A few light stretches in the morning will help you feel relaxed and ready to pose. This can make your body feel more fluid during the session.
4. Day-of Checklist: What to Bring
Here’s a quick checklist to make sure you have everything you need:
Outfits & Accessories: Pack your selected outfits, plus any accessories or jewelry that complete the look.
Touch-up Kit: Bring makeup essentials like lipstick or powder for touch-ups, and a brush or comb for hair.
Shoes: Don’t forget to bring a variety of shoes, including any that match your chosen outfits.
Personal Items: Whether it’s a special piece of jewelry or a prop that has meaning, feel free to bring items that add personal touches to your photos.
Water & Snacks: Stay hydrated and energized by bringing a bottle of water and a light snack.
Pro Tip: If your session includes outdoor elements, like our sunflower field or park settings, remember to pack comfortable shoes for walking between shots and a jacket in case it gets chilly!
