We’ll tailor the locations / looks / outfits to suit your campaign causes and the local area in which you’re running). Full retouching / editing of images is available at a rate of $10 per image – I would definitely recommend this for all images that will be printed or published, especially for campaign posters / billboards.

I RECOMMEND THAT YOU:
Pay extra attention to small details and grooming: this will make a big difference to the end result: manicured nails, tidy brows, waxing / shaving, hair freshly coloured / cut etc.
Most importantly – be yourself, real and authentic with your looks / outfits! This will help you connect with your electorate and hopefully get more votes!
SOME CLOTHING TIPS:
Colours that photograph well for strong bold headshots are black, blue, red. Softer colours and white will create a more warm, friendly and approachable headshot style. Please avoid busy patterns or bold stripes / lines as these can be distracting (or cause some distortion) in photos.
WHAT TO BRING:
If you’re not sure exactly what to wear please just bring a range of clothing options, shoes, belts, jewellery, props and accessories and I will help you decide on the day.
PLEASE DON’T WORRY if you have never had a professional photo shoot before or if you are nervous. This is completely normal and I am very used to this… most of my clients are the same! I will guide you through the whole process and make it a fun, relaxing and enjoyable experience.
