Outfit Advice: Skin Tone and Clothes

If you are a young woman, the odds are that you have worn foundation at least once in your life. Have you ever mistakenly purchased the wrong foundation and ended up with a streaky face that just looks wrong? Your foundation didn't match your natural skin tone.  The same goes for clothing:  choose outfit colors that compliment your natural skin tone.


What colors do people rave about when you wear them? If you have an honest friend, invite them over to judge your clothes when you hold them up to your face. Maybe they can tell you what looks best with your skin/hair/eyes. You can also go online and look up your skin tone to find colors of makeup and clothing that will work best for you. Wearing the right colors can make your eyes look bigger, your skin look brighter, your hair look less drab, etc.


Making sure that your clothing compliments your natural skin tone will help ensure you look great for your Senior Photo Session.

Pack Your Personality

What do we love most about the Senior Photography Experience? Duh, you! Your personality makes the portrait! We have had such an awesome year of wild and wacky personalities! You make the job we do just that much more fun.
Granted, your personality isn't necessarily an outfit option, but to us it is just as tangible. It doesn't matter if you are wearing Victoria Beckham jeans if you stand as still as a deer in headlights! We watch our 1,000+ friends on Facebook and they are hilarious, but the moment their feet hit our studio they become perfect, silent, immobile children . . . yawn.
Our plea is that you bring your personality along to your photo shoot. When you come to choose your portraits, we want you and your friends and family to say, "That looks just like you!" We hear that a lot and it is the greatest compliment because we didn't have to make you into someone else, or force you to change to create a better picture! We are able to capture you, but we need you to bring it! So be you, because we are looking for wilder and wackier Seniors this Summer.

Can't wait to meet you and your personalities!
