What to Wear for your Photography Session

I love photography. I love sharing my photography. One of the things that I love so much about it is that photography is an art that is constantly improving. It is fun to look back and see over the course of nearly 5 years.

(Can we just add how much Katrina has changes since her senior pictures?!)

 In the course of the last year I feel like I have learned so much and so when my sister was here this last week for spring break I knew it was time to truly experiment and see that the things I am learning is coming into play.

Even more so, I wanted to create a resource for my clients to see what I am talking about when I say I would rather them accessorize and show personality in their clothing choices. 

So... without further ado, Heather Luther Photography presents "What you Wear Makes a Difference!" : 

Portraits are a chance to freeze time and capture you as you are in this moment of time. That includes showing your personality and love of life. While poses and props can often time portray this, nothing can take your portraits to the next level quite like the outfit choices you make for your photo session. 

As a Photographer I actually get excited when someone comes to a session with a trunk full of outfit choices. I love helping my clients pick their outfits, change up their shoes and put on a hat or scarf. Something as little as adding a cardigan can take a picture from eh to wow. 

Truly. Case in point: 

 See how the pop of color seems to complete the pictures? 

Another great example is this one: 

Katie had a great yellow bag and we used it in a few pictures. It makes her pictures look like a add for The Arizona Jean Company! 

 Your outfit can also be versatile. 

All she wore was a white tee, a scarf and a cardigan. Adding and subtracting the layers creates completely different looks. See below: 

But perhaps a huge difference your outfit does is slims you down & brings the viewers attention to your face which is the goal of portrait photography! 

But ultimately, what makes a photo session go from blah to bam is having fun!
