Photoshoots are stressful.  I get it.  I’ve done enough of my own branding sessions to know that even though I’m WELL versed in how a branding shoot operates there’s still a level of stress that comes along with it.  And while I may not be able to guarantee you won’t run into any issues on your shoot day or that you’ll be cool as a cucumber I  can give you a few tried and true tips to help the day run much more smoothly:

• Plan Ahead: Before the day of the photoshoot, make sure you have everything you need organized and ready to go. This includes props, wardrobe options, and any other items you may need for the shoot.
• Communicate: Make sure you communicate with your photographer and any other individuals involved in the shoot. Discuss your vision and any ideas you may have. This will help ensure everyone is on the same page and working towards the same goal.
• Get Plenty of Rest: Make sure you get plenty of rest the night before the shoot. Being well-rested will help you feel refreshed and ready to go on the day of the shoot.
• Stay Hydrated: It’s important to stay hydrated throughout the day, so make sure you bring plenty of water and snacks to keep your energy levels up.
• Take Breaks: If you have a particularly long shoot day, don’t forget to take breaks throughout the day. This will help you stay focused and avoid burnout.

By following these tips, you can help ensure as stress-free of a photoshoot day as possible all while capturing some amazing shots! If you found these tips useful I’d love for you to let me know!
