What to Wear for your Photo Session


1. Wear Clothes That Make You Feel Like You 

Wardrobe choices that are extremely outside your level of comfort will make you look and feel awkward in photos.

2. Complement Each Other, But Don't Match 

Complementing your partner's look is one thing, but matching outfits and patterned prints aren't ideal for portrait sessions. When deciding how you and your partner will dress, look for complementary colors and solid prints. Try to stay away from anything too busy, as it can be an unnecessary distraction in photos.

3. Choose Pastels, Cool Colors, and Neutral Tones 

You'll want to avoid anything neon, lest you'll end up looking like a hot, blinking sign.
