What Should We Wear?
One of the biggest dilemmas for many people about photo sessions is what to wear. In the most technical sense, here are some guidelines. I would not choose white, or very pale colors, unless it is necessary. Wedding dresses, christening gowns, etc. are necessary whites. Otherwise, wear something darker, those colors photograph better. Texture adds visual interest in subtle ways, patterns are bolder but can also work well as long as the pattern suits you and isn’t too dominating (A little dress, for example.) When you are coordinating for an engagement or family shoot, wearing things that coordinate, without uniformity, tends to look best. I went ahead and picked outfits for a family to show you some of these principles in action in colors that look good on a variety of skin tones.
