Chesterfield, Virginia Teen & Senior Fashion Tips
I know you’ve got a lot on your plate as you wrap up your high school career. It's an exciting time filled with late night study seshs for tests, extracurricular activities and sports and maybe even a job. And now you’ve got to think about what to wear for your senior portraits because Mom finally twisted your arm, haha! I get it! Seriously, I do I have a teenager of my own.
Let me help! To take the stress and hassle out of figuring out what to wear, I've created a rough guideline that’ll help you while you and Mom plan your senior portraits. This is one of the most common questions I get from senior portrait clients and although I may not personally know you yet, there are a few general guidelines I can happily share!
5 Fashion Tips for Guys’ Senior Photos
1. Wear Your Favorite Clothing
Feeling comfortable and yourself is priority number one for senior pictures. Think about the pieces of clothing you always turn to when you want to feel your best; these are great options for your portraits.
2. Try Something New
Sometimes it’s nice to have an excuse to buy something new. Hit the store for a new shirt or pair of jeans to feel extra confident at your session.
3. Wear Clothes and Shoes You Can Move Around In
We’ll be posing, walking around, standing up, and sitting down for your session. Make sure that you feel comfortable moving around freely in your outfit. Shoes should be clean and photogenic (please, please no dirty sneakers or flip flops), but nothing that you feel restricted in.
4. Avoid Super Loud Colors and Prints
The best senior portraits don’t detract from your face and blend well into the backdrop. Try to avoid neon colors, flashy prints, bright red, and yellow. There are always exceptions to the rule, but let’s talk it out to make sure it’s a fit for your senior portrait backdrop.
5. Make Sure Everything’s Pressed/Crisp
Little details matter, so make sure that jeans are wrinkle-free, shirts are freshly ironed, cuffs are crisp, nails are clean, and hair is freshly washed and styled. I know that todays style includes longer hair but I promise to ask to see your eyes! Moms and Dads wanna look back and see their son, even if today you tend to wear your hair in your eyes. Blue eyes, Brown yes, let's see 'em!
