Ok, you chose the right photographer for you.

Now, let's the planning party begin!

First, you need to decide what to wear for your photo shoot.

Use these tips as a style guide to make sure you select photo-perfect clothes, so you love your images forever and ever.

Look and feel amazing for your photo session!


WHAT TO WEAR FOR YOUR PORTRAIT SESSION?


Choose your color palette first.

First of all, pick a palette of three-four colors. Choose in terms of tones: blue tones, earth tones, neutrals, pastels, etc. The soft neutrals always bring the focus back to the people in the photos for a timeless look. Use the color wheel to find out which colors are complementary.

(PS- NO logos, please)

Layers and textures are your friends.

Layering can make a huge difference. Also, choose interesting textures, such as lace, corduroy, denim, and knits.

Coordinate.

When you are deciding what to wear for photos, don't be matchy-matchy: coordinate using the tones of your color palette and having the location in mind. You can mix-and-match patterns like plaids, stripes, and florals.

You can also layer them with solid colors and denim.

Accessorize and add a pop of color.

Adding accessories and happy colors to the mix will add personality to the images. My usual go-to is burgundy and mustard, because they coordinate beautifully with neutral colors.

Comfort first

Think about being comfortable first and keep clothing simple. Choose outfits that will let you enjoy the moment.

Keep your location in mind.

Always keep your session location in mind when choosing your outfit.

Think "Wall Art".

Coordinate with your home. Do you consider your home style to be clean and classic, bohemian, hipster, neutral, or vibrant? Is it light, bright and airy, or moody and dark? What colors do you decorate with?

Choose colors from your home so the images look great on the wall.

Dress up!

Getting professional photos done are a special treat. Pamper yourself. Don't be afraid to dress up. Also, wear something that highlights your best features. It will give you a huge boost of confidence.
