Seniors: What to Wear

Here’s a few tips for those of you trying to figure out what to wear for your photo shoot!

1. COLORS: I recommend colors because they pop the subject of the photo out against the background. Whether the colors are bright and fun or soft and muted, they look great in photos.

2. ACCESSORIES: Don’t forget to accessorize. Adding some bracelets, nail polish, tie, a cute necklace, scarf, cute shoes, or hat can make an look that much better on camera.

3. PROPS: Props are always fun to add to your session. Flowers, balloons, chalkboard, soccer balls, skateboard, your favorite mirror sunglasses, whatever makes you, YOU.

4. Don’t forget to make sure your clothes reflect you and are something you’re EXCITED to wear! I wore a black shirt and jeans for my engagement session and I can’t stand what I wore! I never wore black and it didn’t reflect my style of clothing in any way. How I wish I could go back and wear something more me :)  If you just can’t decide – bring it all, and we can pick it out at the photo shoot!

Something I always find helpful when I’m in need of some inspiration is start looking around on the internet or through magazines. Pinterest is a great place to find some fun inspiration. It helps get some great ideas on a color scheme or color combination I may not have thought of on my own. I posted a few ideas below to get you started! Have fun :)

Let’s talk headshots…..
No one likes to get them done but updating headshots is quite important for companies for several reasons, particularly when it comes to branding, professionalism, and fostering connection. Here are a few key points to consider:
	1.	Professional Branding: Consistent, high-quality headshots that match the company’s current brand identity help present a cohesive, professional image to clients, partners, and the public. Outdated photos can detract from the brand’s credibility, especially if the individuals look noticeably different in person.
	2.	Employee Engagement and Morale: When companies provide updated headshots, it shows that they value their employees’ image and presence within the organization. It can make team members feel more recognized and included, fostering a stronger sense of belonging and identity.
	3.	Human Connection: Updated, genuine-looking headshots help potential clients or customers feel a connection to the team. In virtual or remote settings, this is especially important, as people rely on online profiles and headshots to feel closer to those they may not meet in person.
	4.	Recruitment and Talent Acquisition: For companies looking to attract new talent, professional headshots on LinkedIn or the company’s website demonstrate that the organization is well-organized, values its people, and invests in a positive image.
	5.	Reflects Company Changes: Companies evolve, and so do their teams and brand styles. Updated headshots ensure that the team page reflects current staff, diversity, and any changes in the brand style or tone.

In general, many companies update headshots every 1-2 years or with any major changes in brand aesthetics, to keep a fresh and accurate public image.
