Photo shoot

Hey! 
For my moms birthday i got her a day at a photoshoot with me. So on friday we went down to Birmingham  ID studios, its not a very big place and it was hard to find! It took us 20 minutes to find it, its on a little street called temple street... but in the end we found it! yay! :) On the website it said you have to be on TIME, so we were a little bit worried because we were about 10 mins late...

4:45pm-8pm


When we got there we were greeted by a boy and he took our bags off us, and checked us in. We walked into the waiting area/hair studio it was quite small and maybe needed a splash of paint, other than that, the equipment was very new. After that we sat down for a few minutes and they gave us a short survey to fill in and some refreshments, i had orange squash and my mom had a coffee, i think they should have more of a choice. 
    
We sat for about 6 minutes then we were taken to the makeup studio, the room was kinda cramped and there were about 6 people in total in there. The makeup artists were friendly and i swear one of them were from telly! They were good at there job, i would give them a 9/10. I wanted smokey black and sliver eyes and bright blue based pink lipstick. My mom had a natural look and she looked AMAZING! This took about 10 mins tops. 
    
After that we went back into the waiting area/hair studio and admired our makeup in the mirror, 3 minutes later i was called for my hair styling i wanted the "Kim Kardashian" hair . The hair stylist was SO friendly! He gave me so many tips on hair and beauty, he gave me the Kim kardashian look, i certainly looked like part of the kardashian family *wink wink*. My hair took about 20 minutes and we chatted away for about 10 more. I had huge flowing curls and i have to admit i looked pretty and so did my mom. I would give the hair stylist 10/10 on personality and on styling! 
    
After that we were taken to a photo studio and greeted by a lady she was also friendly. The changing room or should i say corner was hugely disappointing! It was about 1 meter wide and 1 meter length! No lie! It was a corner with a curtain! Me and my mom struggled to get changed in the amount of time given, but we had no other place to get changed. Another little moan i have to say is about the photo scenes, a small room with sections and curtains to get the backgrounds. Other than that the photo shoot  was brilliant! The photographer was friendly  and took some amazing pictures! The nicest thing i was told all day was that i was a natural at modelling! I am now looking at modelling agencies :) 
    
Once we were finished we were taken to a photo room to view our pictures. I loved every single one of them! We both got to pic a photo for our complimentary photo 7x5 print, since we were there last clients he gave us a A4 print. To buy the photos were quite expensive £50 each! The sad thing was that we couldn't have a print of both of us it had to be a picture of yourself. Sadly they didn't even give us small prints of our pictures we were told "Your pictures will be deleted when you walk out", i don't think they should of said that.We had to pay £5 each for the P+P which is alright. BUT you have to pay £25 per person for a deposit which they give you back in 5-10 working day which i think is a bit silly. Overall i was pleased with the experience .
