Before we meet Prep notes

Thanks for booking your In-Person Colour Analysis.

Before we meet, I'll need three quick photos of you so I can prepare for our session.

Styled by Georgette23a Crowhurst Street, Newmarket, Auckland Open in Maps

Please email the three pictures below ahead of your session. I do ask that you arrive at your scheduled time with no makeup on and no coloured contact lenses — I keep makeup remover at the studio if you need it.

Picture 1

Full face shot

A full face shot of yourself with no makeup and in natural light. Make sure your hair isn't hanging in your face.

In daylight, close to noon — that's when light is purest. Not direct sunlight, so I can see your natural colouring.

Full face shot — correct example — Like this

Light is even across the face
Daylight tones — not grey or pink
Front-on, no tilting or posing
Not in direct sunlight
Taken around noon for full-spectrum light

Full face shot — not like this — Not like this

Lighting is uneven on the face
Not looking into the camera
Shadowing present on the face

Picture 2

Eye close-up

A second picture in the same lighting with a close-up of your eyes so I can see the shapes and lines in your iris clearly.

If you're using your phone, you won't be able to take this with the front camera — turn the phone around so the back lens faces your eye.

Eye close-up — correct example — Like this

Patterns in the iris are clearly visible
Picture is in focus
Eye is well lit with natural light so the colour shows true

Eye close-up — not like this — Not like this

Picture is blurry
Iris pattern can't be seen clearly
Taken with the phone's front camera
Taken in a dark room

Picture 3

Childhood photo

If you have a picture of yourself as a child where I can see your natural hair colouring, that would be wonderful.

Even if you've never coloured your hair, this photo is still relevant.

Natural hair colour is visible
Daylight or window light if possible
Any age before colouring or significant sun lightening

Please remember — for the best result, no makeup should be worn during your in-person colour analysis.
