How to prepare for your photo shoot and important tips.


Tips For best VIRTUAL SOCIAL MEDIA portrait results using CLOS APP:

Scout a place (ideally have several options to choose from, in case weather
or time of day and available light factors in) to do the shoot.

Good light is key (indoors , should be where there is good window light)
The App requires cellular connection to work (as it works like a FaceTime call) 
We recommend that you test this out before your session.

We strongly recommend sending Keith BP a few quick snapshots of your suggested venue(s) in advance of your scheduled session so he can give some feedback about considerations for orientation, light and time. For indoor venues It is helpful to
know ahead of time whether window orientation is west or east.


Decide ahead of your photoshoot whether you will have help from someone who’ll
hold the phone or will prop it against a book, etc. (or use a tripod)

We recommend thinking about including something signature “you” in your portrait: a signature fashion statement you’re known for (a collection of hats, eyeglasses, a color you always wear), incorporating props that represent your profession or go-to things you have within arms length of your office desk ( a motto or quote you live by, a mug with your company logo, do you prefer to write “old school” with pencils and paper, etc. ?,
have a physical color coordinated planner). Or things that you love to have
around you (especially during work from home): a bouquet of flowers.
