\n1. Natural light is the most flattering. Choose a room that has plenty of natural light to get ready in. <\/em>
\n2. Surround yourself with people who make you feel good – no negativity allowed.<\/em>
\n3. Wear something you love and feel good in for your photographs.<\/em>
\n4. Make sure you give yourself plenty of time and breathing space.<\/em>
\n5. Do your hair and make-up first. You can always touch it up later.<\/em>
\n6. Make a playlist of all your favourite music to create a happy and relaxed atmosphere.<\/em>
\n7. Despite your nerves, don\u2019t forget to eat and stay hydrated.<\/em>
\n8. Enjoy every single moment. It\u2019s your day.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
