Before the session
Choose your date, gather a small reference board and decide who if anyone is joining you.
On arrival
Talk through your priority looks, props and any photographs you definitely want to make.
During the shoot
Your photographer guides your position, hands, expression and movement while shaping the lighting around each look.
Outfit changes
Move from your timeless look to your statement look without rushing. Fewer strong outfits usually beat six hurried ones.
Group portraits
If friends or family come along, build them into a planned part of the session rather than trying to squeeze everyone in at the end.
Your favourites
Select the images you want edited and delivered through AOU Studio's existing process.
Confidence is part of the service.
Birthday specialists repeatedly remove the fear of posing by making direction explicit. Your website should do the same. People need to know that being nervous is normal and that the photographer is responsible for the light, angles and flow of the session.
