Senior Photo Style Guide Nature location: Take a look at your location and try to find an outfit that works well in the area. Your outfit should be comfortable and easy to move in, and it should also reflect your personality and normal style. Flowy outfits look great in a nature setting. Boots and sandals make navigating easy while allowing for a classy look. Simple patterns with colors that match the surrounding area can help keep your outfit from clashing. City location: If you end up taking your photos in a city location, you can still take the flowy outfit route, but the architectural setting allows you to choose a more moody or casual outfit. Heels or dress shoes are a fun way to elevate your outfit in this setting. Bright or dark non-neutral colors can help you stand out from the concrete backgrounds of the city. Whether or not to take the “traditional style” route: If you browse Pinterest or other seniors’ portraits, you might notice that they tend to have a similar style. This might include a white dress for more feminine outfits or a suit or nice button-up for more masculine outfits. While these are seen as traditional, they are not the only way to dress for your photos. Above everything else, it is important that you truly feel like yourself and are able to let your personality shine through!
