Formal photographs are important, as getting through you schooling years absolutely is something to dress up for and celebrate!
But in saying that, I don’t suggest doing formal photographs on the day of the formal. Hairdressers.nail technicians.makeup artists.dress fittings.cars.friends. augh it is too much already! And as this particular school has their formal/prom in winter the light is hard at that time of year to co-ordinate everything with. So what do I do? I do a shoot before or after the event. Then we can take our time, not be concerned by time limits or by the fact that it is a tad full on and stressful the day of your formal. This then means that you get much better photographs and a few variations in locations.
For this shoot we did it the Saturday before hand as Amelia had her hair and makeup trial then. We walked the city center and found a few spots that worked well. Here are a few samples:
Isn’t she just stunning? Congratulations Amelia, and all the best for the rest of your school year!
