Examples of outfits and styling for portrait photoshoots

Most women usually panic after booking their portrait or boudoir photoshoot and say they have absolutely nothing to wear. I think it’s partially because they have this idea about wearing something exquisite and fabulous for a makeover photoshoot. Of course, you can wear a jaw dropping evening gown with diamonds if that is what you want. I myself love glamour and elegance so naturally I suggest these kind of outfits during a wardrobe consultation I carry out with my clients around 2 weeks before their photoshoot. But it really depends on your personal style and how you are going to use your images. Are they just for you or are you going to use them to for personal branding to attract your ideal clients? If you never wear dresses, even for going out, then by all means pick your favourite jeans, trousers or leggings. A dress would probably not feel like you. On the other hand I sometimes get clients who actually want to wear something they would never wear normally just to see themselves in a different light.

The most important questions I ask to my clients are: HOW DO YOU WANT TO SEE YOURSELF ON PHOTOGRAPHS? WHAT WOULD YOU WANT TO THINK OF YOURSELF WHEN YOU SEE YOUR FINAL IMAGES? WHAT PERSONALITY TRAITS WOULD YOU LIKE TO CAPTURE ON YOUR PHOTOS? WHAT WOULD YOU WANT TO SHOWCASE?

These are a good starting point and along with examples of outfits from your wardrobe, which give me indication of your personal style, we can come up with the best options for your tailored made photoshoot.

I recorded a Facebook live video some time ago addressing this particular topic. I have gone through some photos of my clients showing that even a very simple top and bottoms can make an awesome photograph. To me, each session, whether its portrait, boudoir or business photoshoot, is always focusing on person rather than outfits, accessories and props. It is all about you.

Here is the recorded video. I hope you find it helpful.
