what should I wear for my photoshoot?

When choosing your outfit for a ballet photo shoot in Paris, classic pieces work wonders. A stunning tutu or a flowing chiffon skirt can add a romantic flair, creating soft movements as you dance through the picturesque streets. Pairing these with a fitted leotard allows for ease of movement while accentuating your form. Opt for soft, pastel colors or classic black to reflect the elegance of ballet and harmonize with Parisian architecture.

how does a photo shoot work?

After booking and payment.

For the photo shoot. We will meet up at the location we decide. Normally and preferable we start our shoot early in the morning around 7- 8 am depending on season (for best lightning and less tourists) You need to be warmed up and ready to start, so its good if you arrive to the location a bit before. If we shoot outdoors (normally) try not to bring to much things if you come alone. Or if you can have a friend with you to watch over your personal things while we are shooting.

Its possible to have more than one outfit with you for the photo shoot if you want. But maximum 2 outfits per hour photo shoot.

After the photo shoot, within 2-3 days, you will see all the unedited pictures in low resolution (water stamped) to pick your favourites ones for post-processing/ editing. 25 edited high resolution photos are including per hour photo shoot.

You will receive them in a private web gallery, ready to download and print as you want after 2 weeks.

What a great way to show off your time in Paris! or for new portfolios photos.
