Your Magazine Style Portrait Photoshoot – WHAT TO EXPECT

Your Portrait Shoot From Start to Finish

If you are considering having a magazine style portrait photoshoot in Worcester, here is what you can expect when booking your luxury portrait experience with Renata Clarke Portraits.

CONSULTATION

Together, we design your custom photoshoot, colours and clothes you would like to wear. I will also send you guides with beauty preparation timeline as well as my style guide that will advise you on the best wardrobe options for your photoshoot.

We will also talk about how you are planning to display your photos at home and how we can create the images that will go with the colour scheme and style of your home. Then we will discuss the overall mood and how you’d like to look in your new portraits. We go through examples of different types of images and select the ones that best show your personality and feel like you.

Saying this, I always watch my clients carefully during the session to adjust their posing to how they naturally move and how confident they feel. The session is always a combination of your own style as well as my vision and feel of you. I observe how you present yourself, how you move and this helps me find the best poses and angles for your portraits. Sometimes only a tiny adjustment in pose or expression makes a huge difference. Also the same pose will look different with every person.

We will have a styling consultation, either in person in my studio or via video call. I usually schedule them around 2 weeks before your shoot. We will go through the outfits you are planning to wear for your portrait or boudoir photoshoot, any accessories and talk about a general mood for your session.

PROFESSIONAL MAKEOVER & STYLING

This day is like a SPA Day! It is all about YOU! Whether you would like to celebrate a life milestone, treat yourself or your loved one to a dream photoshoot or just need a professional headshot for your LinkedIn profile – this experience will change the way you see your own beauty. 

First, I will explain you the flow of your photoshoot with coordinated wardrobe and backdrops. My professional hair and make-up artist will make you look gorgeous. We will go for more of a timeless elegance look rather than any new makeup trends to ensure your images look chic decades from now. The makeup artist will only use top products and techniques which look great in camera (so no heavy contouring or loads of layers of makeup).

We want you to absolutely love your images so be sure to let the artist know if you’d like any adjustments to your styling.

MAGAZINE STYLE PHOTOSHOOT

Once you’re dressed and ready, I will guide you though a series of poses designed to flatter your shape and showcase your beauty. I will connect with you in a way that captures genuine expressions and the light that shines from inside you. The photoshoot will take about 2 – 2.5 hours with 4 wardrobe changes. You get to wear multiple outfits so that you will have photos for a variety of occasions. Together, we will create the best portraits you have ever seen of yourself. At the end of your session we will set the date for your reveal and ordering appointment.

REVEAL & ORDERING

Your reveal and ordering appointment will be set approximately 2 -3 weeks from the date of your shoot. This will give me enough time to review and professionally retouch the best images.

On the day you will have a personal viewing session in my Worcester studio where I will present you your beautifully edited images for the first time. We will carefully review all your images one by one and you will select the ones you love most. My goal is to make sure you fall in love with them all! In this session, you’ll have the chance to decide on one of the portrait collections I offer or select items a la carte.

What you buy is entirely up to you, you only purchase what you really want. There is absolutely no minimum purchase or an obligation to buy afterwards. With that being said, I always do my best to create images that you’ll absolutely love and don’t want to be without 🙂
