Lay out all outfits a few days before your session. Make sure everything fits well and feels comfortable. If something is too tight, itchy, or constantly needs adjusting, it will show. Clothes should be clean, wrinkle free, and free of logos or graphics that pull attention away from your face. Solid colors, layers, and simple textures photograph best.

Bring variety. One casual outfit and one more polished look usually works well. Think jeans and a well fitting shirt paired with something more elevated like chinos and a button down or lightweight jacket. If you normally wear hoodies, great. We can work that in. The key is looking like yourself on your best day.

Shoes matter. Clean sneakers, boots, or casual dress shoes all work well depending on the outfit. Avoid bright colors and heavy logos. Well worn but clean shoes are better than brand new ones that feel stiff or awkward.
