Senior Picture Style Guide: What to Wear! | Parker Colorado | Sarah Lindsay Photography

Preparing for your senior pictures and feeling a bit lost about what to wear, is more than ok! It's entirely natural to want to look your best for this important milestone in your life, and it can be overwhelming. However, choosing an outfit that reflects your personality, flatters your features, all while you feel confident and comfortable, is key.

Avoid Trends

Try to avoid logos and trendy graphics that may date your photos. However, if you're passionate about a particular band or a favorite tee, we'll find ways to incorporate it subtly while keeping the focus on you.

Be Yourself

The most important aspect of your senior pictures is authenticity. Wear outfits that make you feel comfortable and confident. Your clothes should reflect your personal style and interests, whether you're into casual, bohemian, or classic looks. We want you to be feeling comfortable and confident for your whole shoot, and leaving feeling amazing!

Consider the Season

Take the season into account when selecting your outfits. For spring and summer shoots, lightweight fabrics like cotton and linen are ideal. Floral prints, pastel hues, and breezy dresses evoke a sense of warmth and vitality. In contrast, fall and winter photoshoots call for richer fabrics like wool and velvet. Embrace autumnal colors like burgundy, navy, and mustard for a cozy yet sophisticated vibe. 

Layer Up

Layering adds depth and visual interest to your photos. Experiment with different textures and lengths to create dimension. A denim jacket over a sundress or a chunky knit sweater paired with leggings can add personality to your ensemble while keeping you warm during outdoor shoots.

Accessorize Thoughtfully

Of course this photoshoot is about you, but diamonds are a girls best friend. Choose accessories that complement your clothing without overpowering it. Delicate jewelry, scarves, hats, and statement belts are all excellent options to enhance your look without stealing the spotlight.
