CLOTHING GUIDE

A FEW SUGGESTIONS TO FOLLOW TO HAVE A SUCCESSFUL SESSION



MAIN OBJECTIVE

BE THE BEST VERSION OF YOU


ACCOMPLISHMENTS

YOUR PORTRAIT SHOULD REFLECT WHO YOU ARE AND ACCESSORIES ARE THERE TO HELP TELL YOUR STORY.


MEANINGFUL ITEMS

VEHICLES, SPORTS EQUIPMENT, MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS, UNIFORMS, HOBBY ITEMS, SPECIAL JEWELRY, PETS, BOOKS, & MORE!


COLORS

  • DARK COLORS ARE SLIMMING AND LONG SLEEVES ARE ALWAYS WELCOMED

  • SOLIDS COLORS WORK THE BEST, THIS WILL MAKE YOUR PORTRAIT 'TIMELESS*, AVOID BUSY PATTERNS

  • GREAT COLOR CHOICES WOULD BE NAVY, GREENS, BROWNS, RED, BLACK, AND DARKER BLUES DENIM IS GREAT

  • AVOID LINES, DOTS, PATTERNS, PASTELS, PINKS, YELLOWS, AND OTHER PALE COLORS.

  • WHITE IS LOVELY AND A POPULAR CHOICE, BUT IT NEEDS TO BE DONE RIGHT, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT NOT TO LET THE DETAILS WASH OUT.

  • SOLID COLORS WITHIN THE SAME COLOR FAMILY ARE MOST APPROPRIATE FOR GROUPS OF TWO OR MORE TO CONVEY A SENSE OF UNITY

  • AVOID THE SAME COLOR OF THE BACKGROUND
