Getting your picture taken is an exciting event whether you’re doing it alone or with your family. However, there is nothing worse than having your photo taken and then being disappointed when you see the end result because it is clear that you wore the wrong outfit. There are several things you can do with regards to clothes you wear to your photo shoot so that you can be sure that you will be happy with the results.

Select an outfit that makes you want to smile. If you wear something that you feel ambivalent about or that you hate, maybe because someone asked you to wear it, you aren’t going to be happy. When you feel great about what yo uare wearing, it makes a huge different on camera;)

If you’re shooting with other people, matching outfits is not necessarily the best idea for a dynamic picture. “I tell people to pick three colors and mix them up as much as possible”

One of the worst things you can do with a family photograph is have everyone wearing the same colors and fabrics. This can make the photograph look overdone, and inevitably someone is going to wind up looking less than stellar and maybe even dowdy. Instead choose colors that compliment each other; you’ll be far happier with the photograph.

Props are nice whether you’re having your photo taken alone or with a group. Props can help you to get different looks for different photos. A hat or a piece of jewelry might work with a dressy outfit, or a sports team may want to have sports equipment in the photo. Props can help to define your personality. Here at the photo you can see Elena is yousing big rose and it’s fit with hair & dress.

If the photo shoot is taking place at work and you work for a Fortune 500 company, you would want to wear a suit.

She suggests going for dark and bold colors like dark red, gold, and hunter green in winter. However, if the photo shoot is taking place at your college you could choose something more casual, such as a nice pair of pants and top for women and dress shirts for guys.
