Hair Styling - This is your moment to go bold. We recommend stepping away from softer, traditional styles and leaning into something more dramatic and fashion-forward. Think sleek high ponytails, edgy braids, wet-look styles, or sculpted shapes that feel modern and striking. The goal is to match the electric energy of the set, so don’t be afraid to choose a hairstyle that feels a little funkier, more powerful, and full of attitude. Your hair should enhance the overall impact and help bring that high-energy vision to life.

Makeup Application - This is the perfect session to elevate your makeup and get creative. While natural looks always photograph beautifully, the Voltage Series invites something more bold and expressive. Think defined eyes, graphic liner, gloss, or even pops of colour that complement the lighting. This is your chance to push beyond everyday makeup and create a look that feels editorial, striking, and full of personality (while still keeping it polished and camera-ready). A professional makeup artist knows how to highlight your best angles and keep your look flawless on camera, giving you an extra confidence boost.

Hair Styling - Hair should match the high-fashion, editorial vibe of this shoot. Think clean, intentional, and elevated styling that feels modern and polished. Strong options include sleek ponytails, slicked-back buns, soft waves, high-fashion ponytails, or a sharp middle-part with smooth, controlled hair. You can also lean into more bold or dramatic styles if it suits your look. The key is to keep it refined and fashion-forward. Avoid anything that feels overly “competition stage,” as this session is all about a modern, editorial aesthetic.

Makeup Application - Makeup should be strong enough to photograph well while still feeling stylish and high-fashion. Great choices include bold eyeliner, darker eye makeup, defined lashes, sculpted contour, matte lipstick, and overall editorial-inspired looks. Because these images are black-and-white, contrast matters more than colour. If you typically wear lighter makeup, consider going a bit stronger than usual to ensure your features stand out and translate beautifully on camera.

Hair Styling - Our go-to recommendation for photos is soft curls. They add beautiful movement and a timeless, polished look. Curls create a natural flow that enhances every pose and transition. While curls can sometimes be tricky for certain poses, once we get it right, the results are always worth it! That said, depending on your style and outfit choices, you might want to switch things up. Some dancers go for more stylized looks, like braided ponytails or messy top knots, adding a bold, trendy edge. The best hairstyle often depends on what you’re wearing and the style of dance in your posing. Others who prefer a clean, classic aesthetic (where technique takes centre stage) opt for a sleek ballet bun. Whatever your vision, your hairstyle should complement your movement and the mood of your shoot.

Makeup Application - Makeup plays a crucial role in professional photography by enhancing your features. Dancers are very used to wearing makeup, but we recommend something a little different for your photos. Most people opt for a soft, more natural look for their photos, while others choose a bold style depending on the vibe of their photoshoot. Just remember, it’s best to avoid stage/dance makeup, as it can be too theatrical or performance-focused for photos.
