Bella Babes Goal

As Gwen relocates her photography business to Winnemucca, this model call serves as a warm introduction to the community. It’s a way to connect with local families, moms-to-be, high school seniors, and children while showcasing Gwen’s unique style. The goal is to build relationships within the community and explore the beautiful surroundings through the lens.

This packet will walk you through the details of what LBP is looking for during your session. Please read through the information to make sure you are able to comply with LBP’s artistic vision and guidelines of the program. I am here to answer any questions you may have.

What's in it For You!

In exchange for your time & talent, by participating in the Bella Babes Program, you’ll receive:

  • Session Fee - As a recruited Bella Babe for LBP you receive a complimentary extended time photo session at no cost to you.
  • Images Included - Any image LBP edits to use for marketing you will also receive.  Studio chooses images to be edited and delivered via download. Print release included. Typically, you can expect to see 5-10 edited images from each session.
  • Social Media Teasers - You will get a variety of photo collages texted to you. These are great to share/post on your social media platforms, mom groups, and with family and friends. I will also have behind the scenes videos that you can share. Feel free to take videos or photos of me in action that we can use as well. These are great for talking about the experience.
  • Proof Gallery - You will receive a private, watermarked proof gallery of all the images from your session, which will be active for 2 weeks. During this time, you can view the images and purchase any digital image package at a 25% discount if you choose. The gallery will be available approximately 3 weeks after your session date, although this timeline may be extended during busier periods, as model call sessions are prioritized after paid sessions.
  • Custom Products - 15% off custom design books and cards.
  • Feature Spotlight - The opportunity to be featured on La Bella’s Photography website, blog, social media, and marketing materials.

  • Open Dialogue: As a Bella Babe it is important that you are extremely open with me about how the experience is for you. I want to know the good the bad and the ugly, so that I can adjust where I need to for future clients. Your feedback will be very helpful to the success of future sessions. Don't be shy, I am completely open to your honest feedback.

Your main goal is to show off your incredible images and share your excitement about your experience with La Bella's Photography! This is where you shine—by spreading the word to your friends, family, social media followers, and mom groups about the fun you had, and the amazing moments captured by LBP. We’d love for you to encourage them to consider La Bella's Photography for their future photography needs by sharing your experience.

Wardrobe Requirements and Ideas

Creating a wardrobe for a country/boho-themed photography session involves selecting outfits that are relaxed, earthy, and stylish, with a touch of rustic charm. Below, I’ll break down ideas for each type of session:

1. Maternity Photography:

  • Outfits: Flowy, off-the-shoulder maxi dresses in neutral tones like ivory, sage, or blush. Lace details or crochet accents add a boho touch. A fitted dress with a soft floral pattern also works well to accentuate the baby bump.
  • Accessories: Wide-brimmed hats, flower crowns, and delicate jewelry. A lightweight shawl or kimono with fringe can add texture.
  • Shoes: Barefoot, leather sandals, or ankle boots with a slight heel.

2. Family Photography:

  • Outfits: Mix and match patterns and solids within a soft color palette like dusty blues, soft browns, and creams. Mom can wear a flowy dress, Dad in a linen shirt with rolled-up sleeves, and kids in simple cotton dresses or denim overalls.
  • Accessories: Suspenders for the boys, floppy hats for the girls, and a fringed shawl or blanket for a cozy family shot.
  • Shoes: Barefoot for a more natural look, or everyone in coordinating boots.

3. Engagement Photography:

  • Outfits: For her, a lace or floral maxi dress, or a flowing skirt paired with a simple tank top. For him, a button-up shirt in chambray or plaid with rolled-up sleeves, and well-fitted jeans or chinos.
  • Accessories: A statement necklace, a floppy hat for her, and perhaps a rustic leather belt for him. A light scarf can add texture.
  • Shoes: Cowboy boots, ankle boots, or casual loafers.

4. Children Photography:

  • Outfits: Little girls in flowy dresses with floral patterns or eyelet lace details. Boys in suspenders with linen shirts and shorts or relaxed-fit pants. Neutral tones with pops of muted colors like mustard yellow or sage green.
  • Accessories: Floral headbands, straw hats, or a small wicker basket for props.
  • Shoes: Barefoot, or simple sandals and boots.

5. Senior Photography:

  • Outfits: Flowy bohemian dresses, bell-bottom jeans with a crochet top, or a denim jacket over a simple dress for a layered look. For a more casual vibe, a graphic tee with a floral or paisley print skirt works well.
  • Accessories: Layered necklaces, a wide-brimmed hat, or a patterned scarf. Consider adding a vintage-inspired belt.
  • Shoes: Ankle boots, strappy sandals, or even barefoot for an earthy, carefree vibe.

General Tips:

  • Color Palette: Stick to earthy tones like cream, beige, olive, soft pastels, and warm hues like rust or mustard.
  • Textures: Incorporate textures like lace, crochet, denim, leather, and linen to add depth and visual interest.
  • Patterns: Subtle patterns like small florals, paisleys, or simple stripes blend well with the boho aesthetic.
  • Props: Consider including rustic elements like woven baskets, old quilts, or vintage suitcases to enhance the theme.
