What To Wear the Day of Your Portrait Session

 

Helpful Tips

 

Here are a few to make you look the best in a portrait.

 

. Pick what you wear to an important event, dinner, or church.

. If it is more of a casual portrait session. It's best not to have any logos/graphics, brands of any          kind, or bright colors.

. It is alright to wear patterns as long as one person is wearing a pattern piece and the rest are in        solid color. Everyone wore patterns then the portrait would come to be a distraction. Pull one to      three colors from one patterned outfit to create a schemed look for all of the others in the group.

 

. Textures will add depth to a portrait.

. Another option is to have everyone in a muted color and pick out one or two colors as a hint in        everyone in the photo.

. Find outfits that would compliment each other.

. Textures will add depth, especially if there will be only one person in the portrait. 

. Be sure everything is properly cleaned all the way down to the shoes.

. Make sure everyone is neat and trimmed.

. Make-up not to be over done (keep in light.)

. Jewelry should be light and simple not to draw attention.

. Last but not least. Days prior to the special day.​ Eat right, Alleviate any stress, And get plenty of        sleep.
