Getting ready for your headshot session is exciting! Choosing the perfect outfit is more than just picking clothes—it’s about showcasing your confidence, professionalism, and personality. Your outfit should reflect who you are and what you do, making you feel amazing in front of the camera. Don’t worry—I’m here to help you every step of the way so you can walk into your session feeling completely prepared and looking your absolute best.
Align with Your Profession and Personal Brand
Your headshot is a visual introduction, so your outfit should align with your industry and the story you want to tell. For corporate professionals, polished pieces like tailored blazers, crisp button-downs, or elegant blouses in neutral or muted tones exude confidence. For creative professionals, this is your chance to let your personality shine! Think bold colors, unique accessories, or fun patterns that reflect your artistry. If you’re unsure, we’ll talk through your goals and find the perfect look together—this is all about you!
Choose Colors and Styles That Flatter You
Let’s talk colors and styles! Solid colors are a go-to for headshots because they keep the focus on you. Jewel tones, soft pastels, or earthy neutrals can add warmth and vibrancy without stealing the show. Patterns can work too if they’re subtle and not too busy. Fit is everything—your clothes should make you feel comfortable and confident, so say goodbye to anything too tight or baggy. If you’re stuck, don’t worry—we’ll work together to find the perfect style that makes you feel like a star.
Pay Attention to Details and Accessories
It’s the little things that can make your look go from good to great. Make sure your outfit is clean, wrinkle-free, and ready to impress. Accessories should add to your look, not overpower it. Think classic and minimal: a necklace, earrings, or a watch can elevate your style without distracting from your face. Glasses? Let’s make sure they’re spotless and glare-free. Layers like a jacket or scarf can add depth and texture—we’ll make sure it all comes together beautifully.
