Do's and Dont's For Prewed Photo - During Photoshot

Do's
  1. For girls, do wear a well covered underwear. Do not wear such as sexy-slutty underwear, transparent, renda-renda. You may need to change clothes in a car or on public places just covered by kain saroong. Do bring lots of kain or car window shade. Malu-malu kucingnya disimpen di box sementara. Cingcay mode on!
  2. It's time to put your in front of the mirror pose to live action. Based on my experience, when we shoot on the beach, and since the photog used a tele lens (tele means far you know that right?) So the photog had to stay away from us and try to yell the instruction which of course hard to listen (di pantai gitu loh, maap hen :P). Gimana mo gaya?
  3. Bring your accesories to mix and match with your clothes.
  4. Expres what you feel at that moment
  5. Relax and enjoy.
Dont's
  1. Don't be 'Sotoy' (sok tahu) to your make up artist and photographer. It's a big no no. You'll only make them feel pressured in a bad way. Just make sure they understand what you want, and let them do their job. I trusted Evy (make up artist) fully and for me the result was fantastic. All my friend likes it, my mother praises it and my fiance luvs it (I knew it when he tried to steal kisses and said the word 'cantik' more than his daily obligation hahaha). And as for the photographers, let's face it, event though you are supermodel, they are still the one who holding the camera and looks inside that 'tiny hole'. They obviously know and see better.
  2. Don't tell the make up artist and photographers to imitate others work. It's rude and copycat never works. Art is something you can not duplicate. It just won't be the same, and you'll end up disappointed. Instead tell them your wishes and let them fulfill it in their own creative way.
  3. Don't hold yourself back. Try to be yourself in front of the camera. Don't pretend someone that you're not. If you do, you photos won't be able to express your feeling since you're wearing a mask.
  4. Do not ask for the impossible. If you are short don't ask them to make you looks like Yao Ming. Especially for girls, don't ask them to make you looks like Giselle Bundchen, Heidi Klum nor Catherine Zeta Jones. They are photographers and make up artist, not cosmetic surgeons let alone God.

Hi Dear,
Wanna add some DO's during photoshoot session...

- Think happy thought... this will make your smile seems natural, not a forced smile. Remember, you paid a lot already to the photographer! Don't let yourself paid for ugly photos :D

- You don't always have to look straight to the camera. It's so boring! Candid shots are far more interesting... more natural. Just have fun with your partner and let the photographer do his/her job capturing the best moment you had together.

- Just relax and feel enjoy during your photo session. Smile and laugh together... .
