Aesthetic Clothes For Photo Shoot

Here is a board of ideas I have saved to give clients a better idea of aesthetic clothes to wear after their appointment for the photoshoot of their tattoos.

This helps clients get a better idea of clothes that I feel will compliment the type of work I do and help keep my portfolio more uniform. 

Photography Pose Inspiration

The importance of poses in photography cannot be underestimated. Poses play a crucial role in conveying emotions, showcasing the subject's personality, and bringing out the desired mood or narrative in a photograph.

My goal for having inspirational poses for my clients to see beforehand is to give them a chance to see what type of vibe I'm looking for when continuing to build my portfolio along with giving them the opportunity to save any poses they would like for me to use for their tattoo photoshoot. I love sharing the photos I take of my clients with them, this is a big moment for them and I love capturing it.

How to Prepare for a photo shoot

As a model, there are several things you can do to prepare for a photo shoot:

1. Communication:
Communicate with the photographer or creative team beforehand to discuss the concept, mood, and overall vision for the shoot. This will help you understand what is expected of you and allow you to prepare accordingly.

2. Skincare and grooming:
Prioritize skincare leading up to the shoot to ensure your skin looks its best. Follow a consistent skincare routine, stay hydrated, and get plenty of rest. Additionally, take care of any necessary grooming tasks such as hair removal, getting a haircut, or nail maintenance.

3. Fitness and body preparation:
Maintain a healthy lifestyle and exercise regularly to keep your body in shape. Leading up to the shoot, make sure you're well-rested and eat nutritious meals to help you look and feel your best.

4. Practice posing and expressions:
Spend some time practicing different poses and facial expressions in front of a mirror. Experiment with different angles and poses that flatter your body type and showcase your unique features.

5. Wardrobe selection:
Discuss wardrobe options with the photographer or stylist to ensure your outfits align with the shoot's concept and mood. Take into consideration any specific instructions or preferences provided by the photographer. Bringing extra clothing options is always recommended.

6. Hygiene and styling:
Ensure that you arrive at the shoot with clean hair, nails, and fresh breath. Follow any styling instructions provided by the photographer or stylist, and bring any necessary hair or makeup products for touch-ups.

7. Confidence and mindset:
Approach the shoot with a positive attitude and confidence in your abilities. Remember to relax and have fun during the shoot, as this will translate into better photos.

By following these tips, you can arrive at a photo shoot feeling prepared, confident, and ready to create stunning images. 

  • Photography of tattoos is not required.

  • Clients face will not be photographed unless client requests.

  • Clients can request creative or standard photos to be taken. (Creative meaning emphasis on creative poses and wardrobe Standard meaning photos will be taken of just the tattoo with no emphasis on the clients posing or wardrobe.)
