WARDROBE GUIDE

Wardrobe Guide for Headshot & Branding Sessions

Elevate Your Look, Simplify Your Style

General Tips

• Keep your outfit neutral and simple: solid colors and clean lines photograph best.
• Avoid prints, logos, or designs to maintain a timeless and professional look.

Bring two outfits:

• Casual Option: Think polished yet approachable (e.g., a soft knit sweater, a plain button-down with jeans or slacks).
• Business Professional Option: A blazer, blouse, or tailored dress works well.

Note: We may not use both outfits during the session, but having options gives us flexibility.

Outfit Details

Colors to Consider

• Best Choices: Neutral tones like beige, cream, soft gray, navy, or black.
• Pop of Color: Muted tones like blush, sage, or light blue can add personality without overwhelming the photo.
• Avoid overly bright colors or neon hues.

Fabrics and Fits

• Choose fabrics with a bit of structure (e.g., cotton, linen, or tailored knits).
• Avoid shiny fabrics or anything overly loose or too fitted.
• Ensure your clothes are wrinkle-free and well-fitted.

Accessories

• Keep jewelry minimal and elegant (e.g., stud earrings, a simple necklace, or a watch).
• Avoid large, statement pieces that could distract.

Makeup & Grooming

Makeup:

• Stick to a minimal, natural look.
• Avoid dark, dramatic shades (e.g., bold lipsticks or heavy eye makeup).
• A light foundation or BB cream, neutral eyeshadow, and soft blush work beautifully.

Hair:

• Hair should be styled neatly and kept in place (a fresh trim or style before the session can be helpful).
• Avoid hairstyles that cover your face.

Final Touches

• Bring a lint roller and small touch-up items like a comb, powder, or lip balm.
• Avoid bringing clothing with wrinkles or stains—steaming your outfits the day before can save time.

By following these tips, you’ll feel confident, and your headshots will reflect your best self! Have fun, relax, and let’s create images that make you shine
