Thanks for booking! I can’t wait to meet you.
Here’s all you need to know ahead of the shoot
-
The day or so before I will send you a reminder with the time and date and a meeting place, but you can always reach out directly if you have any questions :)
-
Great! We won’t be doing any stiff posing :) I will direct you and who you’re with when needed, and capture the natural interactions. That’s when we all look best anyway. The session will be purpose led, but also relaxed and fun.
-
Clothing isn’t the focus of the shoot which is exactly why it’s so important. Don’t leave this to the last minute please, you want to feel confident and happy with your outfit so you don’t have to think about it once we are there.
Well chosen clothing let’s the moment and connection be the main event whilst adding atmoshphere and contex to the photo. It is worth reading this page for detailed guidance on what to wear: https://www.anetekruze.com/what-to-wear
If you’re stuck, please let me know and we can chat through it. Feel free to also send me pictures of your clothes laid out for any feedback or guidance.

A good mindset and maybe a neutral umbrella, we live in Scotland after all. I will try to remember to bring an umbrella too :)
-
Before the shoot when you’re at home, take your time. Try have clothing etc ready the night before and leave time to get your hair and make-up just how you like it and feel best in. Ensure there’s time for food before you come and bring a small snack, just in case :)
-
Tell them a friend is coming to play and bringing a camera. No need for the pressure of telling them there’s a whole photoshoot. They’ll just be doing their kid thing anyway :)
Feel absolutely free to bring a toy (maybe leave the super ‘ugly’ one at home though… we all know the one :D) or a comfort item. If we’re going to a beach a bucket and a spade might be fun, for example?
-
We’ll say our goodbyes and I will go home and edit. Once that is done I will send you a secure link to view and download your photos or purchase any prints if you wish.
Currently my turnaround time is 1-2 weeks unless I specify otherwise, but I’ll try get it done asap :)
You can then use the images however you wish but please do tag me / credit me wherever possible.
