HOW TO PREPARE
​

-If you can, do some research into what kind of looks you prefer. Ishtar will find the best look for you with or without reference material. Keep in mind it is not always possible to replicate something exactly as many styles depend on the person.
​
-Most hair works best for styling if it is clean, but has not been washed that same day. For best results, wash your hair the night before and do not use any styling products on the day of your shoot (hair gel, baby oil, hair spray, etc). Do not come with dirty, greasy or oily hair as this will severely limit your styling options.
​
-If you have extremely curly hair, please come with your hair already straightened so that we may style it.
​
-Have your eyebrows groomed 2-3 days before the shoot.
​
-Please arrive with clean, moisturized skin.
​
-If you have sensitivities to certain kinds of makeup, please feel free to bring your own.
​
-Nails should be clean and free of chipped polish. We find a professional manicure and pedicure before your shoot works best.
​
-Be sure to remove any body hair you do not want to show in your images.
​
-If possible, get a good night's rest the night before to reduce puffiness and dark circles.
​
-Keep your skin moisturized with lotion before you come to your shoot. Applying lotion immediately before your shoot can leave your skin looking greasy or shiny. Do not apply baby oil before your shoot.
​
-Please remember that photo makeup wear and day-to-day makeup wear are very different. It may seem unnatural or too heavy for everyday wear, but on camera it will look normal. Normal, day-to-day makeup wear will not read on the camera.
​
-The most important thing is that you feel beautiful and are happy with the result. The best thing about hair and makeup is that it isn’t permanent. If you don’t like something, we can always change it.

COMMON QUESTIONS?
​
​What if I have scars, acne, stretch marks, etc?
All photos purchased from Ishtarandrea Illustration include basic retouching, which means all skin will be smoothed to perfection, eliminating blemishes, scars, bruises, stretch marks, cellulite, etc. We also offer deluxe retouching for more extensive corrections, such as fixing tan lines, body reshaping and sculpting, removal of braces or tattoo removal.

Can I add another person or pet to my shoot?
Although Ishtar's main focus is turning everyday girls into beautiful models, our clients are allowed to add men,a friend, children and pets to their sessions as long as consulted with Ishtar. We only have wardrobe for women, so all other clothing will need to be provided by you. Additional fees may apply.

Will someone help with posing?
Yes, Ishtar will help pose you and help with facial expressions. To prepare, try searching the internet. Take a look at faces and body positioning. Go to your mirror and work on facial expressions before your shoot. You may feel silly or self conscious, but the best thing you can do is fully commit to it and your photos will turn out amazing! Be prepared to be physically active. The best poses are almost always awkward or uncomfortable. Before your shoot, be sure to stretch so that your body will be loosened up and ready to strike a pose.

When I buy a digital image, do I get the copyright?
No, Ishtarandrea Illustrations retains the copyright to all images created. For high resolution image orders, we will include a letter authorizing you to print your images anywhere you like. Digital images must remain unaltered unless alterations have been approved by the photographer.

Do you offer a military discount?
Yes, we offer an additional 5% discount off our regularly-priced images and photo packages to active duty military personal and their dependants.
