FAQs for a vintage hens party photoshoot:

1. What is a vintage hens party photoshoot?

A vintage hens party photoshoot is a themed photo session where the bride-to-be and her close friends celebrate by stepping into a bygone era. Dressed in outfits inspired by classic styles from decades past, participants enjoy both the unique experience of the photoshoot and the timeless, elegant photographs that result.

2. What kind of outfits and props will we need?

For a vintage look, think about styles from the 1920s to the 1960s – flapper dresses, pin-up styles, or even classic Hollywood glamour gowns.

3. How long does the photoshoot typically last?

The photoshoot can range from 1-3 hours, depending on the package chosen and the number of outfit changes. Always ensure you allot extra time for hair, makeup, and any unforeseen delays to make the most of your session.

4. Can we choose the location for our shoot?

Absolutely! While many clients prefer studio settings for controlled lighting and backgrounds, outdoor locations with a vintage feel – such as heritage homes, classic cafes, or old train stations – can provide an authentic backdrop for your shoot. We’re happy to work with your location preferences to achieve the desired look.

5. Will there be a professional makeup artist and hairstylist available?

Some photoshoot packages offer professional hair and makeup as part of the experience. If not included, we can provide recommendations or you can bring in your own preferred professionals to ensure you achieve that perfect vintage look.
