Scheduling your corporate headshot session is easy, but what comes next may seem like a challenge. It’s the age-old question, “What am I going to wear?!”
Follow these top 3 tips for what to wear to your corporate headshot photo shoot to make the decision easy.
1. Wear a top with a flattering neckline.
Does a lower neckline look best on you? Or do you prefer a tighter neckline? All types can look good in a headshot but try to choose one that looks the most flattering on you. If you’re not sure what that is, flip through some photos of yourself and pay attention to the styles that you look best in. Or ask a trustworthy friend to help narrow down your options.
2. Wear a color looks good with your complexion and hair color.
Do you know that shirt you wear and everyone says "that color looks so good on you!"? Bring that color top to your session. The colors in your outfit should complement your hair color and complexion. Stay away from anything that will wash you out, and avoid anything with bold graphics or text as they tend to be distracting.
3. Wear clothes that you feel comfortable in.
Finally, it’s important to feel comfortable in the clothes you're wearing. If you like a shirt because it looks good on the hanger, but it doesn't feel good on your body, leave it at home. Maybe the fabric is itchy, maybe it's too tight, or maybe the seams don't lay right on your shoulders. When you feel uncomfortable in your clothes it will show in your photos.
If you follow these simple tips, I know you’ll nail the outfit selection for your corporate headshot photo shoot.
