What should I expect from a photoshoot session?

During a photoshoot session with a professional photographer, you’ll be guided through poses, lighting, and mood to capture natural, flattering moments. Depending on the package, you may shoot in a fully equipped studio or at an outdoor or urban location chosen for atmosphere. Many Wowcher deals include a pre-shoot consult to tailor the style, family portraits, engagement shoots, headshots for business, or newborn photography, so the photographer understands your goals before the camera starts flashing. The result is a gallery of edited images ready for download or print, with licensing that fits personal use and, if needed, additional commercial rights.

You’ll typically experience a friendly, collaborative vibe designed to put you at ease, especially important for children, teenagers, or anyone who feels camera-shy. A good photographer will offer wardrobe guidance, backdrop options, and creative ideas to maximise variety within the session, ensuring you walk away with images you’ll treasure for years.

How long does a typical photoshoot session last?

Most sessions run between 30 minutes for quick portraits and up to 1–2 hours for family or couples shoots. Location shoots or themed concept sessions can extend to 2–3 hours, especially when multiple locations or outfit changes are involved. When you book through Wowcher, you’ll find clear details about session length, the number of edited images included, and delivery timelines. If you need extra time, many studios offer add-ons such as additional outfit changes, extended outdoor coverage, or premium retouching to capture every angle perfectly.

Plan for a little extra time for nerves to settle, the photographer to set up lighting, and the opportunity to review a few test shots. A well-paced shoot keeps energy high and helps you get a broader range of expressions and poses, whether you’re chasing timeless family portraits or dynamic headshots for a LinkedIn profile.

Do I need to bring anything to the photoshoot?

Outfits are the star of most shoots, so bring options that complement the location and lighting. Neutral tones and cohesive colour schemes work well, with a couple of coordinated outfits to provide variety. For family sessions, consider matching but not identical looks to maintain individuality. Some photographers offer style guides or pre-shoot consultations to help you plan. If you’re aiming for a specific look, romantic, bold, or natural, discuss this in advance so you can prepare accordingly. Accessories, a spare pair of earrings, and comfortable footwear are practical additions that can enhance your photos.

If makeup or hair styling is part of your plan, confirm whether it’s included or available as an add-on. For outdoor shoots, bring a small bag with essentials like water, a hat for sun protection, and a rain plan if weather could be an issue. Some Wowcher deals even offer on-site makeup options, which can streamline the experience and keep you looking your best across a range of looks.

Are makeup artists or styling included with photoshoot sessions?

In many portrait or wedding-inspired packages, makeup artistry or hairstyling is available as an add-on or as part of premium bundles. If included, you’ll benefit from professional makeup artists who understand how lighting affects different skin tones and textures. If not included, photographers often collaborate with trusted makeup artists or stylists who offer discounted rates for Wowcher customers. Either option can significantly elevate the final result, especially for close-up headshots, engagement shoots, or bridal photography.

Always verify the exact inclusions in the listing and ask about the availability of in-house stylists or partner professionals. This ensures you can plan your day smoothly and arrive ready to shine in front of the camera.

What about editing, delivery, and print options?

After the shoot, you’ll typically receive a curated set of edited images. The number of final images, the level of retouching, and the delivery method are listed in each Wowcher deal. Delivery is often via a secure digital gallery, download link, or USB, with digital copies suitable for social media, websites, or personal keepsakes. Print packages are a popular add-on, including album creation, canvases, wall art, and framed prints, great for decorating your home or gifting family and friends. Check whether the deal includes high-resolution files and licensing for personal use, with options to upgrade for commercial use if needed.

If you plan to print, ask about recommended print shops and paper quality to ensure your portraits remain vibrant for years. Some photographers also offer retouching beyond standard edits, such as blemish removal or background enhancements, so you can tailor the final look to your preferences.

How do I choose the right photographer or photoshoot style?

Begin with the photographer’s portfolio to identify the vibe you want, classic studio portraits, candid lifestyle moments, editorial fashion, or natural outdoor imagery. Compare pricing, turnaround times, and what’s included in the package, including the number of edited images and print options. Read client reviews on Wowcher and the photographer’s own site to gauge reliability, communication, and consistency. Consider the shoot type you need, family portraits, engagement shoots, headshots for business, newborn photography, or pet photography, and ensure the package aligns with your expectations for poses, location, and lighting. Clear pre-shoot communication helps you feel relaxed and confident when you walk into the session, resulting in authentic, memorable photographs.
