I get asked all the time… “What should I do before my shoot?’”. Taking good care of yourself in the weeks leading up to your shoot is so important. Today we’ll cover a few basics that will help you feel your best.

Increase you water intake! Try to drink extra water all the way leading up to your shoot, it is AMAZING for your skin and will allow you to shine bright like a diamond! Lower your salt intake & avoid alcohol if you’re concerned about water weight! Stay out of the sun, or wear lots of sunscreen.

If you wax, do so ASAP to avoid any bumpiness or redness. Make sure your eyebrows are groomed & hair touched up. Keep drinking plenty of water, this does amazing things to your skin! Try on your outfits and lingerie to make sure they fit properly.

You might think now is the time to amp up your work outs but you don’t want to be sore, so don’t do anything you wouldn’t normally do… We’ll talk more about this in our post about posing… stay tuned.

If you spray tan now is the time, go easy with the color so you look natural… spray tanning can help blur the lines of you tan or even out your skin color but be careful, make sure feet/hands are covered well and tan naked for no tan lines.

Shape and buff your nails, or get a manicure or your nails did.. nail colors recommended- nude colors, white tips, nothing to bright in color.. the focus will be on you not your fingers. Also take special care of the bottom of your feet- nice and clean, it is hard to edit the dirty feet look so this is important!
