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.
In a nut shell id prefer if clients wore neutral, fashionable clothing without logos.

Photography Pose Inspiration
The importance of poses in photography cannot be underestimated.
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 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:
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 or nail maintenance. Hydrated skin is preferred to tattoo on verse dry skin.
3. Practice posing:
Spend some time practicing different poses in front of a mirror. Experiment with different poses that flatter your body type and showcase your unique features.
4. Wardrobe selection:
Discuss wardrobe options with the photographer to ensure your outfits align with the shoot's concept and mood. Bringing extra clothing options is typically recommended.
5. Hygiene and styling:
Ensure that you arrive at the shoot with showered. Follow any styling instructions provided by the photographer.
6. 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.
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.)
This is more for people that care about how the look in photos of their tattoo and enjoy photography and photoshoots.
