Headshot Clothing Tips
HEADSHOTS
GOOD: Solid colors
AVOID: Busy patterns
GOOD: A more fitted style with a v-neck or scoop neck is recommended.
AVOID: We don't recommend anything too "flow-y" because with two-dimensional images, it can just add weight and not be as flattering.
GOOD: Keep make-up more natural or how you normally wear it. Bring some extra cover-up, powder, mascara, blush and lip-color for potential touch-up's or enhancements.
AVOID: Bronzer or Blush with sparkle or sheen.
GOOD: Layering your tops: Having a jacket, sweatshirt or button-down shirt (unbuttoned) over another shirt can add an interesting visual quality to your headshots. This will enhance your look and bring a dynamic quality to your shots.
AVOID: Thick layers such as wool sweaters and down-puffer vests.
GOOD: Pick colors to contrast skin tone. Pick a shirt color that contrasts against your skin color.
AVOID: Don't select a color that blends into your skin.
GOOD: Stay True to You.
Extra Notes:
When choosing clothing options, a good guideline to follow is to consider the type of outfit that you would wear and feel comfortable in.
