Outdoor Portraits:
As a background, the outdoors is very busy. It is important to choose only one or two theme colors.
While blues are excellent all year, whit, ivory, khaki, and salmon work well against lush green foliage. Burgundy, brown, tan and grey are nice for the fall season.
Avoid all greens, as they clash with Mother Nature.
Coordinate your attire form head toe, as there will be full length portraits taken.
Sports or activity uniforms may be use.
Studio Portraits:
- Avoid busy patterns and bright colors, which draw attention for the face. Solid colors are very subtle prints work best.
- Light colors are best with light backgrounds and fair complexions.
- Darker colors look better with deep backgrounds and dark hair or complexions.
- White, ivory, khaki, or pastels are best with a white background.
- Avoid wearing yellow or green, as they can adversely affect skin color
- Shoes and socks should match the outfit.
- Teens and adults should wear long sleeves to cover the elbows.
- Skirts should cover the knees.
