What To Wear For Guys

• How many outfits do I bring? With the Starring You session, you should bringing about 3 outfits. But don't stop there. Bring extra. This gives us a chance to mix & match, switch up accessories and really show your style. Bring a range of styles. Casual, dressy and something in between, like an outfit you would wear on a date.

• Dress in layers. It's really important to have layers and texture in your photos. Layers and texture add interest.

  • By simply adding a neutral color t-shirt under a button down, you've added a layer.  You can also roll up your sleeves.

  • Put on a  jacket or simply carry it. Include a plaid flannel tied around your waist. You can also wear that flannel open with your t-shirt.

    • A note about t-shirts. Be sure they are solid with no wording. You don't want to read "Vans" every time your look at your photos.

• Proper fit. Lots of guys like to wear a button-down that is untucked. Be sure to choose a slim-fit shirt, even if you are a bigger guy. Boxy shirts make you appear to be wider than you are in places that you don't want to add width. 

• Wear a watch. It is an easy way to add layers. Time pieces are classic and stylish. If you're a guy that likes jewelry, go for it. Bracelets, earrings, necklace. Whatever you call your style

• Bring multiple pairs of shoes. You should have a different pair of shoes for each outfit. 

  • I do not recommend wearing flip flops with your casual outfits unless we are at the beach. Then choose a pair that is fairly new without scuffs on the toes.

• Matching socks are a must. If you are wearing slacks, be sure to match your socks to your pants. Black with black. Brown with brown. Unless you are wearing fancy dress socks with a crazy pattern because your just that kinda guy.

• Bring a belt. Belts are the  #1 forgotten item at a guy's senior photo session. Bring it. You'll need it.

• Try on your outfits. It's frustrating to get to your photo session, only to find out that your new favorite shirt doesn't fit the way you remember. Or that t-shirt got a little shorter and tighter in the wash. Trying everything on before your session also let's you see how well your pieces go together and that your layers look great too.

• Be yourself. Your senior photos reflect who you are, not just what you look like. So when dressing for your senior photo session, be yourself.

• Be comfortable. Being comfortable with your wardrobe choices will help you feel more relaxed and confident in front of the camera on your big day,
