· For your fashion or glamour shoot: A week before your shoot, you should refresh color in your roots, and tan out any lines as best as possible. The day before (or better yet, two days), avoid foods that cause water retention or swelling. These include salty and greasy food, caffeine, and alcohol. Avoid any skin peeling products the day before, or they may cause issues with peeling which show up under photographic flashes. Fingernails and toenails should be manicured, the same length, and colors should be natural, or match the outfits discussed with us previously. On the day of the shoot, exfoliate your skin (gently), but be careful using artificial tanning with any sort of scrub brushes as it can leave strange streaks and blotches. Wear loose clothing with no straps or elastic anywhere you plan on showing any skin (including under sheer outfits). It can take hours for strap marks to fade, which show up as unsightly dark red lines on your otherwise beautiful skin. Also make sure any unsightly body hair is removed on any areas that will be exposed but don’t try any untested methods which might cause irritation. On the night before and the morning of the shoot, drink a lot of water and keep sipping during the day. The better you’re hydrated, the better you will look and feel. Eat normally, avoiding the foods above, so that you’re comfortable but not too full. Visit your make-up artist shortly before the shoot, or bring your MUA with you. Also, bring some upbeat tunes you like .
