Brand Photography - What to wear

So it’s nearly the new year and it’s time to update your headshots and branding photos for your business. You have found your photographer, booked in your photo shoot date and now it’s time to think about your wardrobe ahhhhhhhhh.

Never fear, I have come up with a simple list of ways to curate your wardrobe to maximise your looks and align your outfits to your brand.

  1. Choose a staple pair of jeans or pants that you can pair with multiple tops for different looks.

  2. Having a few different colour options to discuss with your photographer is a great idea - grab some bold prints & neutral tones; think about your brand palette & choose complementary colours, and don’t forget about good old monochrome - which you can style with strong colours or your signature brand accents.

  3. Think about how your outfits will look against the chosen backgrounds or locations. Will you have a backdrop? Will you be shooting outdoors? Urban or native?

  4. Make sure everything is clean & ironed. A hand steamer is also a great idea!

  5. You can choose to get your hair & makeup professionally done as this brings a polished look to your photos. Ask your photographer for recommendations. If you plan on doing makeup yourself, I suggest applying slightly more than normal if you will be under studio lighting.

  6. Bring hair product, moisturiser and some makeup on the day for touch ups.

The more options the better! You can work with your photographer on the day around what will work for you & your brand.
