Question: What attire should I wear when I do my headshot professional photo?
Answer:
So, when I do headshot sessions, the number one question I get from people is like the colors or the styles of clothing that they should wear. Uh, so usually what I do, most people for like corporate type situations, they like kind of the gray muted background that's just sort of flat and plain. It doesn't stand out too much. it doesn't draw too much attention, but it helps them stand out in the front. So, anytime you're trying to be on a gray or a darker, maybe even a black background, you want to go with neutral colors, maybe blues. Uh grays are good. Uh most people try to avoid white. It really depends. Um, and then of course you most of the time you want to avoid really bright, crazy neon colors, purple, pink, green, things like that. They they tend to just be too distracting. I'm not saying it can't be done. It really depends on your personality and the kind of business that you're in. So if you were a comedian, maybe you could do some wild crazy color. But if you're a corporate executive or something, you should go for like navy or uh earth colors, earth tones, you know, tan or something like that. Something more muted and traditional just as a traditional kind of look that most corporate people go for.
