A flying dress photoshoot looks like magic, but the process is simple — and you
don't need any experience. Here's exactly how a session runs.

## 1. Book and choose

Pick your [experience](/experiences), a [location](/locations) and a
[dress](/dresses). Secure the date with a 25% deposit; the balance is paid on the
day.

## 2. Arrive and get ready

Come with hair and makeup done (we offer makeup as an add-on). There's a private
changing area and accessories at every location. For desert and platinum shoots,
transport is included.

## 3. The shoot

This is where it comes together:

- The **photographer** guides your pose, angle and expression.
- The **assistant** throws the dress so the fabric catches the wind and billows
behind you.
- We shoot in short bursts to catch the dress at the peak of its movement.

A session is about an hour (desert adds travel time each way).

## 4. Delivery

You receive **all** the photos and videos, and your favourites are professionally
edited and delivered, typically within 7–10 working days.
