Jayne and Chris Birchall's photography and make-up brings out the very best in

Please read this carefully
before attending your Makeover Photo Session.
This information will help you prepare for your photo shoot, and contains
helpful advice about hairstyles, clothes and accessories
Anyone who has experienced a
portrait sitting at our studio will know just how much time, effort and skill
Jayne and Chris put in to creating the beautiful portraits for which they are
renowned.
Hair Styles
Before arriving, wash and style
your hair just as you would before going on an evening out. This will give
us an indication of your usual hairstyle and how you would like to look in your
portraits. We will adjust it for the camera, and during the course of the photo
session it can be combed, brushed, and otherwise coaxed into any alternative
hairstyles you would like to try.
Clients who are particularly specific about their hairstyle may find it
beneficial to visit their usual salon prior to their appointment at the studio.
We do not cut hair, and our water-based sprays brush out easily - so you
can go home looking no different to when you arrived!
Make-up
Photographic makeup is much heavier
than normal - even for that `natural' look. Please arrive wearing little or
no makeup as problems can arise when reapplying fresh cosmetics after
removing yours. If you usually shape your eyebrows, please do so a day or two
before your appointment. It is well worth considering having this done
professionally. The few pounds spent will make a tremendous difference. And if
you colour your hair, please make sure it is freshly done, not more than ten
days prior to your appointment.
Beauty Tips
Most of your shots will be head and
shoulders, but as hands can often be featured too, it is preferable that your
nails (real or false) are clean and well shaped. If you usually wear nail
polish please ensure it is not chipped. A natural polish or French
Manicure is best, as strong colours may clash with some of the many fabrics
we utilize during the photo shoot.
Posing
And finally: don't worry about
not being able to pose. Drawing upon a wealth of experience gained working
with professional models, Jayne and Chris will coax and encourage you into
exactly the right angles to bring out your most photogenic features.
