A relaxed, fun, and confidence-boosting experience at Viva La Foto.
Stepping into a photography studio for the first time can feel a little nerve-wracking — What do I wear? How do I pose? Will it feel awkward?
At Viva La Foto, we believe a great photoshoot should feel easy, enjoyable, and empowering from start to finish.
Here’s exactly what you can expect when you book your first studio photoshoot with us in Bromley.
Before the Shoot: Getting Ready
A great photoshoot starts before you even arrive.
Once your session is booked, we’ll guide you through:
- What to wear (colours, textures, and styles that photograph beautifully)
- How to prepare — from hair and makeup tips to what to bring
- The vibe of your shoot — relaxed, bold, natural, playful, or elegant
Top tip: Choose outfits you feel confident in. When you feel good, it shows in every photo.
Arrival at the Studio
When you arrive at our Bromley studio, you’ll be welcomed into a calm, friendly space designed to help you relax.
You’ll have time to:
- Settle in and chat with your photographer
- Go over your ideas, expectations, and any inspiration
- Ask questions (there are no silly ones — promise!)
Our goal is to make you feel comfortable before the camera ever comes out.
During the Photoshoot
This is where the magic happens
If you’re worried about posing — don’t be. You don’t need any experience at all.
We will:
- Guide you through natural poses
- Help with posture, angles, and expressions
- Encourage movement and genuine moments
- Keep things light, fun, and relaxed
Whether you’re having a portrait session, family shoot, couple shoot, or newborn session, we adapt the pace and style to suit you.
Most clients tell us the same thing:
“That was way more fun than I expected!”
Outfit Changes & Variety
Depending on your session, you may have time for:
- Outfit changes
- Different backgrounds or lighting styles
- Close-ups and wider shots
This gives you a beautiful variety of images, perfect for prints, social media, or professional use.
After the Shoot: Selection & Editing
Once your session is complete, we carefully select and professionally edit your images.
You’ll be guided through:
- Viewing your images
- Choosing your favourites
- Selecting prints or digital packages
We’re here to help you choose photos you’ll truly love.
Our editing style focuses on:
- Enhancing natural skin tones
- Polished but realistic retouching
- Timeless, high-quality results
