Stay true to yourself! Wear what you like, feel comfortable in, and defines "you." Looking in your closet for your favorite outfits might be better than buying a whole new wardrobe for the photo shoot.
Bold colors make bold statements. Bright makes beautiful photos. Think of three colors that may go together and choose outfits that stay within those colors. For example, white with blue jeans for everyone may look cohesive but yellow, purple, and denim will pop in photo processing. Little girls love their tutus and tights and boys their boots. Mix up the textures, colors, and patterns. Color rocks!
Accessorize! Belts, floral headbands, hats, and scarves bring texture and drama to a photo. Feel free to share ideas on what props you would like to bring for your session. If you are into sports, animals, music, you name it you can bring it!
Have fun! Bring an old prom dress that you don't mind getting a little dirty in. How much more fun would it be to get some photos in it during your session? If you love vintage clothing, get dressed up! Have fun with your personal style.
Try to remember a few key things. Stay modest. Keep under garments hidden with sweaters, shorts, or other items. Wear items that you will feel comfortable in while bending down, sitting, and kneeling. Try and stay away from logos on your clothing. Remember to pick items and clothing that represent you.
