What do I wear! Dressing for your session Tips.
Well known tips to look photogenic.
- Wear solid colored clothing black, earth tone's, burgundy, blues, greens so that we see all of your face. If you wear stripes, patterns or flowers, you will take away attention from yourself and all we see are the clothes.
- Choose 1-3 colors for your family portrait, ones with similar tones that go nicely together and have everyone work within that color palette.
- Choose a top with sleeves at least to the elbow, Why? because your arms take up more skin area than your face and will draw attention and it may also make your arms appear larger.
- Wear some makeup on eyes and cheeks, shiny faces are not flattering, also lipstick or gloss looks great too. Hope these tips help. Call Olson Photography if you have any more questions. We are here to help you look your best.
