Before every photo session we give our clients an advice on what to wear for a photo session as the outfit has an impact of the final image.
To make it easy, we have put together a few bullet point with basic rules (see below). Please reach out to us if you have further questions.
FAMILY PHOTO SESSION (applies to Couples, Kids and Newborn photo sessions)
- Simple is better (simple and basic clothes is the best)
- Neutral and solid colours or rich jewel tones
- It is suggested to avoid black colour as it can cause loosing details on the outfit, try grey instead
- Keep location in mind - for beach and sunset photo sessions rich colours stand out, for busy background neutral tones work better
- Try to avoid large symbols, logos and busy patterns and also very bright colours which would dominate the screen
- No need to colour match eveyrones clothes but try to coordinate colours
- best is to pick couple of colours and choose clothes that will fit in this colour scheme
- it also helps to lay your clothes down on the bed to see how outfits work together
- if you plan to hang your print in your home you can stick to the same colour scheme
- Mix textures and colours - having everyone wearing jeans and white T-shit is very 90s
- We recommend simple make-up and neat hair
- Try not to overcomplicate things
- For newborn photo session all newborn props, wraps and outfits are provided unless requested otherwise
- For maternity photo sessions you can try and use some of our maternity dresses
- All props, outfits and studio are cleaned and sanitised before and after each photo session

Corporate Headshots & Portraits
- Simple is better applies for this type of photo shoot as well
- Choose an outfit you feel confident and comfortable wearing
- Change of wardrobe is highly recommended (2 backgrounds are used during regular photo session)
- You might like other outfit on the image than you do prefer to wear
- It provides you with more options to choose from (formal and casual looks will increase to usage opportunities of your photographs)
- Usually 2 jackets and 2 shirts are recommended, or a blouse and shirt + jacket to allow combining
- Light colours (pastels) or neutral/muted (grey, navy etc.) are usually the best
- We recommend simple make-up and neat hair
- Accesorise: accent your outfit with necklase, sweater or blazer
- Try to avoid large patterns (stripes or checks), mix of patterns, logos or multi-coloured tops
