When it comes to a photoshoot, preparation goes beyond choosing outfits and fixing your hair – it’s about defining your vision and feeling confident in front of the camera. Whether it’s your first shoot or you’ve done many before, taking the time to practice your poses and expressions will make a world of difference.

1. Practice in Front of a Mirror

One of the easiest ways to understand how your body moves is by practising in front of a mirror. Try different poses, experiment with angles, and notice what feels natural to you. If you’re a yoga teacher or movement practitioner, think about the postures that best represent your practice. Do you want to highlight strength, flexibility, or softness?

A tip: Take some selfies or record yourself to see how you look from different perspectives. What you feel versus what the camera captures can sometimes be different, so this will help you refine your movements.

2. Define Your Message & Energy

Ask yourself:

  • What do I want my photos to say about me?
  • How do I want to be seen by my audience?
  • What is the feeling I want my images to evoke? Strength, calm, joy, focus?
  • How do I want potential clients or students to connect with me through these images?

Your photoshoot is not just about looking good; it’s about telling your story. If you’re a yoga teacher, maybe you want to convey a grounded, peaceful presence. Or, if you’re a dynamic movement coach, you might want powerful, energetic shots. Take the time to reflect and visualise the message behind your brand.

3. Set Your Intentions

Before stepping in front of the camera, take a moment to set your intentions. Close your eyes, breathe deeply, and visualise the shoot going exactly how you want. See yourself feeling confident, at ease, and fully present. This small but powerful step helps you connect with your vision and show up authentically.

Your photoshoot is not just about the final images – it’s about discovering new sides of yourself and embracing your unique expression. Be bold, be playful, be YOU.

How to Practice and Define Your Vision for Your Photoshoot

3/06/2025

Hey gorgeous!

I'm Kris.

Welcome to my world where I offer you a safe space to express yourself in your most vibrant, honest and genuine way.

meet me

Photographer. Storyteller. Yoga Teacher.

My mission is to help Yoga teachers and Wellness Businesses magnetise their dream clients through imagery that speaks, inspires and connects.

In every photoshoot, I create a supportive and soulful experience where my clients feel empowered to embody their truth, embrace their authenticity and bring their vision to life.

"I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the results. I feel so good and it's captured so beautifully. Like an art."

I was looking for a photographer who could make great pictures of me because Im a yoga teacher and needed new professional material for my social media. I felt so comfortable during the whole shoot. Kris really knows how to make you feel good and she gives great cues. The energy was so amazing. 
I'll definitely be using the pictures for months to advertise my teaching in social media. 
I loved every second of our photoshoot.

"Her professionalism, creativity, and warm demeanor made the entire experience stress-free and resulted in beautiful images."

I had an amazing experience working with Kris, a talented photographer, for my well being branding photoshoot. From the beginning, she was friendly and made the process enjoyable.

She listened attentively to my vision, provided clear guidance during the shoot, and created stunning photos that captured the essence of my brand.

I highly recommend Kris photography for any branding photoshoot, especially for those in the wellbeing industry and beyond.

"She is very patient, creative and enthusiastic about her work - something I always look for in a professional photographer."

"Very much enjoyed my photo session with Krisztina. 
My yoga pictures were taken on a sunny day predominantly in St James park. Krisztina discovered some really cool spots, came up with innovative ideas and was also receptive to mine. Being a yogi herself, she recognised the poses I was doing and was able to capture the full expression of my asanas.

Overall, I had a very pleasant experience and would love to do another photoshoot with Krisztina in the future. And I can only recommend you do the same.
