Be you. Choose clothing and accessories that represent your style and that you feel great in. Select clothing that fits well and that compliments your figure.
Try to avoid clothing with logos… otherwise you run the risk of looking like an ad for your favorite retailer.
Try to avoid being “matchy matchy”. Instead, try to coordinate your outfit selections.
Select outfits that compliment each other in color, style, and level of formality.
One just for the guys, since the girls already know this… Shoes matter. Pick appropriate footwear for the outfits you will be wearing.
Don’t be afraid to bring a couple of different outfits. Most couples bring at least one casual outfit and one with a more formal tone.
Layers and texture translate great on camera! Don’t be afraid to layer jewelry, scarves, sweaters, jackets, or any combination in order to create depth in your outfits.
Don’t forget the details! Accessories, nails, shoes. The level of care on the little things can add up. A fresh manicure, polished shoes, and even the simplest earrings can create a more polished and styled look
Brides… consider having your hair and makeup done professionally for your session. Having a professional hair and/or makeup stylist prep you for your session will help to add a little glamour to your photos even if you’ve selected casual apparel for your session.
Are we shooting at the beach? Consider the constant ocean “breeze” as you choose clothing. Short, flowy skirts and the ocean breeze do not get along well. And bring a towel! Even if you don’t get wet, you will almost always have sand on your feet and clothes.
