What to wear for your headshot?
A good headshot photographer can create various impressions from just one outfit and can give you a variety of looks. But it is always wise to carry atleast two outfits choices with you. Discuss ahead of time and plan out the look you are going for. Sometimes something as simple as adding a blazer will add to the look.
The key is :
- Keep it simple and classy.
- Bring outfits that fit you and compliment you.
- Stay with solid colors. Avoid patterns & large prints.
- Add in a blazer or a coat to create additonal look.
- Rice/Oil Blotting paper fixes shines and that is something that can be fix during retouching as well.
- Bring a hairbrush/comb with you to fix the strays.
- For women having a lipstick handy is a great idea.
- Women-Think neck lines and bring choices.
- Keep jewelry light and elegant. Idea is to focus on YOU not the necklace unless you are a jewelry designer.
