What Should I Bring to my Photoshoot?

One of the top last minute questions people ask me as a photographer in Ottawa before heading to their photography session is: What should I bring to the photography session?

Here is a list of 5 things that I think would be handy to have during your photography session:

  1. Tissues - Everyone always ends up looking for a tissue or a wipe at some point or another during a photography session. ESPECIALLY when young kids are involved, it’s always good to have.

  2. Water or Snacks - Because you never know when someone might get a sugar low or NEED a drink NOW!

  3. A little compact mirror of some kind. Just in case because you never know.

  4. BUG SPRAY! I always make sure to drench myself in Bug Spray before photography sessions in the evening or somewhere full of mosquitos. It’s definitely a must bring for me.

  5. Hair Brush & Accessories - Elastic, Bobby Pins, etc… Sometimes the wind is not blowing in our favour or a little piece of hair keeps falling in our face. Anticipating this is key!

I hope this list will help you get ready for your photography session!
