Step 2 – Promo Photos & Media Day Prep
If we sent you shirts in advance, here’s what we need now so we can start building your class page: Have fun! These do not need to be professional if you do not have a photographer.
- Promo shots of you tattooing in your shirt (on a workday if possible).
- Selfies or portraits in your shirt.
- Shots of you working in your normal setup.
These images help us promote your class before the official media day.
