Outfit Ideas
(just suggestions)
Pick a Casual Outfit
* this is your plain and simple outfit but also the one that says a lot about you.
* pick your favorite t-shirt and add your favorite pair of jeans with your favorite jewelry
* and make sure one of your outfits has pockets because they give you somewhere to put your hands! Super important.
Pick a Layered Outfit
* layers are your friend
* pick an outfit and add a sweater or your favorite jean or leather jacket on top
* it’s also fun to layer shirts or add a scarf like the examples below
Pick a Dressy Outfit
* Lots of girls wear dresses and look fabulous!
Accessories
Jewelry, scarves, rings, bracelets, earrings, necklaces and sunglasses
These are awesome finishing touches. I can’t stress this enough!
Are You An Athlete?
If you’re an athlete bring your jersey, ball, helmet, stick and varsity jacket
Musician?
If you’re a musician bring your instrument
Dogs?
Bring your dog if you want!
Shoes
Last but not least, your sneakers and boots and sandals say a lot about you and they’re so much fun (especially for girls)!
Please, Please, Please, Please, Please!
* Wear the right bra. Bra straps are such a pain. It’s no big deal to Photoshop it out of pictures if they peek out here and there but I can’t reconstruct an entire shoulder or remove it if it’s intertwined with other straps.
* Remember that eyebrows and fingernails show up in your pictures
* Avoid tiny checks and thin striped shirts or dresses (they don’t photograph well) – instead go with big checks, plaid and flannel
* Avoid any shirts with big logos, numbers or words as one of your main shirts but feel free to wear a favorite band/concert t-shirt for a few
* Avoid neon – it is the devil
* Wear a tank or cami to make outfit changes super easy
* Don’t get sunburned the day of your session
* Pack a makeup bag for touchups if you want
