I was inspired to do this based on Kristin's awesome post. A lot of times clients ask what they should wear on a portrait session and the number one thing to remember is to always dress to express your personal style. Me? I'm super casual but I also love layers, textures, colors, and patterns, so I would push for those elements. And when you're being photographed with other people, it's much better for people to wear complementary colors and tones (and not necessary the exact same color).
I'll create recommendations - hopefully seasonally - for families, kids, and babies. I took photos from Old Navy since they specialize in clothing staples and basics. Here's the first batch of recommendations: casual outfits for grown-ups. Great picks for the casual portion of your headshots session or for engagement sessions. For guys, I love to see patterned and light colored button-down shirts. Blues and browns look good on most guys. For gals, I love a neutral look with unexpected color, texture, pattern, and details. While I would advise against a big, bright magenta sweater, I don't think you should shy away from a hint of color or pattern here or there.
Please let me know what you think!
