Solid colors in neutrals, pastels, or jewel tones are timeless and photograph beautifully.

Pick 3-4 colors for a great clothing color scheme. Pinterest has a lot of amazing ideas for color palettes.

Avoid any bright patterns, logos, solid white, solid black, or neon colors.

For women, flowy dresses and skirts are an excellent choice.

For men, button up shirts and slacks are a timeless, classic choice.

Sleeveless clothing is fine. Note it will highlight your upper arms and draw attention away from your face.

Wear flattering clothing- if clothing is too tight you will be uncomfortable and stiff in pictures.

Wear comfortable shoes at your photoshoot. Your images will be best when you are comfortable!

Choose shoes to match the weather and your style of clothing.

Heels give a timeless elegant look and ballet flats are a great option for a relaxed chic vibe.

For fall/winter, boots are a really nice look for men and women.

Leave flip flops and old sneakers at home- remember that full body photos will show your feet.

Hats are a fun accessory, but can cover your facial features.

Recommended to remove health trackers and watches.

For ladies, wearing hair down is soft and romantic.

Updos are more formal and accentuate your facial features.

For makeup, wear more color on your lips and cheeks since professional lighting washes out makeup.
