Two Outfits
Typically, a session lasts about 1 hour, and that’s enough time for two outfits — a formal and an informal one. If we add a bit more time, we can include a third outfit — perhaps sports or hobby-related.
👍 What works great
Solid colors and simple patterns
Colors that complement the photoshoot location. Neutrals and earth tones for the woods, or opt for something bold in an urban setting.
Well-fitted clothing that flatters your shape. Can you sit, stand, and twirl comfortably?
🚫 What to avoid
Loud patterns or big logos
Neon colors (they reflect weird light on your skin)
Small stripes (they can distort on camera)
Shoes that don’t match the outfit
Wrinkle-prone fabrics
Above all… wear something that makes you feel like you. You know what looks best with your hair and skin tones, so plan towards whatever makes you the most confident! Comfort breeds confidence, and confidence looks fantastic on camera.
Casual Outfits for Girls
hanging out in style
A pair of well-fitting jeans, a solid-colored top, and some simple jewelry can create a great look in senior photos. Want to elevate it a bit? Swap in a chic blouse for a look that’s polished. This kind of outfit lets your personality stand out without stealing the show in the photos.
There are other options besides jeans. A breezy, flowery sundress is perfect for senior photos. The light fabric will give some nice movement and make the pics more dynamic. For a natural location, the Bohemian style would work well. And lastly, rompers & jumpsuits are chic and allow for a lot of movement.
Formal Outfits for Girls
classic elegance or bold statements
Typically, the formal dress is a white dress worn beneath the graduation gown. White looks classy and sophisticated. It stands out beautifully and reflects beautiful, neutral light onto your skin.
Looks for Guys
sharp suits, casual vibes
A trendy blazer can be a great way to add some style to your senior photos. Or if you want to up your game, a suit could be a powerful option.
Formal Outfits
For a relaxed look, a well-fitted pair of jeans and a stylish button-down or polo shirt. Or for a more casual and laid-back look, a graphic tee looks great. This can be a good option for both urban and nature locations.
