My clients often ask me "what should we wear?" when preparing for a photo shoot, so I thought I would put together a few things to keep in mind.
What are you doing with the photos? If you plan to print and hang an enlarged photo on your mantle at home, you may want to consider wearing something that would compliment the colors in the room.
If you will be doing photos with a group, try and wear complimentary colors but don't match. A good example of complimentary colors can be seen here.
Avoid large logos and intense patterns, as this can overwhelm the photograph. Also avoid wearing really bright colors. If you are wearing a bright pink shirt for example, it can reflect that color on the other person in the photograph if you are really close to one another.
Aside from that, it is important to be comfortable and to wear something that you feel like yourself in. If you feel comfortable and confident, it will show in the photos.
