Preparing your bedroom for the photographer

I am always skeptical about publishing pictures of bedrooms. Quiet often all that tends to be in the picture is the bed. If you have plenty of room to move about in your bedroom the photographs will look much better than those of a very small bedroom.
 In saying that, some quick tips to get your bedroom ready for the photographer

Make sure your linen is clean
All the sheets and blankets are tucked in properly
Your doona or quilt must sit evenly on the bed
Play around with the cushions and pillows so that they present at there best
Clear all clutter from bedside tables and dressing tables
Add some pretty flowers to the dressing table
Light some candles to soften the room
Please remove any nudie shots from the walls. Yes I did say nudie and yes people do leave them there for all to see! Not a good look at all.
Keep walls fairly uncluttered
Remove any clutter that can be seen from under the bed and surrounding areas
Turn the bedside lamps on
Freshen up dull linen with some cheap colourful cushions and maybe a throw rug
If you have mirror robes,clean the glass
Take a look at your window furnishings,will they present well in the picture

                                             Omg.... what a bedroom                                         
                   
                                  Greet the sun


                       Rise before the dawn
       Find a vantage point with a wide vista
             Wait for the first warming rays
              Feel their strength,their vitality
      Observe the world as it wakes around you
                           Feel the renewal
