Let's talk about styling your portraits! Whether you wear sweats, leggings, or jeans during the week how fun would it be to get all dressed up? We have all gotten pretty relaxed with our appearance during this turbulent time but a Portrait is the perfect time to grab a fancy dress or the cute skirt you have been eyeing online.
Don’t Be Afraid to Go for it!
Have you thought about rocking a romantic gown, tulle skirt or flower crown but just never had an occasion for it? This is your chance to do it up! Remember: There is no such thing as “too dressed up” when it comes to your portrait session, so don’t be afraid to have some fun! If you don’t want to add a new permanent piece to your collection, a lot of clients love Rent the Runway for their session because it’s such an affordable way to feel like a million bucks. Other clients love having a great excuse to bring a new permanent piece (or two!) into their closet!
Long, full-length, flowy dresses and skirts look amazing on camera because they bring extra movement to the photos. Consider softer fabrics like chiffon or tulle which allow for beautiful movement in the images.
When you say Accessories? I say bring it on! I love what a chunky necklace adds to an image or even a flower tucked in your hair. This is a chance to be bold with your choices and push yourself.
Now that you have that bold beautiful outfit picked out don't forget to bring your favorite outfit that makes you feel like YOU! Having a look that pushes you and one that is in your comfort zone will insure you feel amazing the day of your portrait.
Lastly, remember you don’t have to bring two looks if it’s too stressful to coordinate or if you’d rather just stick to one fabulous look. One outfit that you love will be so much better than one outfit you love and another you’re not very excited about. And if you stick with one outfit set, you won’t have to spend any of your time time changing half way through, so we’ll be able to sneak in a few more photos! So, one or two? It’s really up to you.
