Styling Tips
When taking photos, you want to be really aware of not only what the camera is picking up visually, but how you’re feeling in the clothes, because that can affect emotionally how you move, how you hold yourself, and what you convey on camera, especially if you aren’t a professional model. Above all else, choose clothes that make you feel confident and assured, because that will read through to your photos.
A couple of color & pattern notes: earthy, muted tones tend to work the best and are most timeless. Unless you have a striking branding color that is really bold and stands out, a neutral or an earth tone will flatter your skin tone and work with the editing the best. That being said, think about creating depth through things like mixed materials, varied textures, and pattern play. Besides stripes, small pattern doesn’t always play best on camera, so be careful when styling with a smaller scale pattern.
Think about what the material & silhouettes your clothes have are telling about the story you want to convey. Do you want to show that you’re relaxed and welcoming? Try a knit or a soft linen fabric in your clothes. Want to show that you mean business but also pay attention to the details? Maybe choose a structured blazer with some fun embroidered detail.
Every part of an image tells a story, whether you control for it or not, so be sure to think about what you’re conveying and what the clothing is saying about you, beyond the fact that you just like it. That’s what separates just a fun photoshoot from an impactful, intentional brand shoot.
