This 2 hour makeover and photo shoot will be an unforgettable pampering experience and a real confidence booster - you will walk out positively glowing! The results are crisp, clear, natural images with a contemporary energy and genuine warmth.
Our professional make-up artists know how to make the most of your colouring and help you achieve any look. It's a good time to ask questions so that you will be able to takeaway any tips to be able to professionally apply your make-up on your own.
The second hour is your chance to shine: our award-winning photographer guides you through the ways to pose to look your best - and makes it fun! You don't need to know anything before you start. Your photographer will take you through putting together the outfits you brought, taking advantage of lighting and poses. Our studio has beautiful, natural light to help capture you in the best light. This is the hour to bring along family and friends to enjoy capturing all the special moments you ever wanted - or you can choose to have all the focus on you.
You will return with your loved ones for a 1 hour viewing session of your beautiful images a week later. We will personally gift you a beautiful image from your Sitting experience making this whole package fantastic value. You can, of course, purchase additional images you love and with a wide range of presentation options you'll find the right ones to suit you and your home.
