&nbsp;You don't have to hit the mall before a shoot (though it's an excellent excuse!). &nbsp;Here are some basic tips to help you pull a collection from your closet or to help you make your shopping list.</p> <p>What to Wear to a Senior Photo Session:</p> <ul> <li>Bring several silhouettes. &nbsp;All your tops or bottoms should not be the same shape. &nbsp;This will add variety to your shots and show your figure off differently. &nbsp;Stick with what you're comfortable with, but mix it up.</li> <li>Be sure to include at least one neutral top (black, cream, grey, white, etc.) &nbsp;Whatever solid neutral color looks best on you. &nbsp;This allows for head shots or close ups that focus on the color of your eyes, or hair etc. &nbsp;Also as color trends change, this type of photo will appear more classic.</li> <li>Add some pop. &nbsp;Draw attention. &nbsp;Each outfit should have a WOW. &nbsp;Either an eye-catching color, a unique fabric texture, a piece of jewelry, snazzy shoes, or something that adds a pop and brings the focus to you.</li> <li>Bring at least three levels of comfort - a formal outfit, something casual, and something in the middle. &nbsp;These allows for a range of looks - some formal posing, some fun casual candids, etc. &nbsp;</li> <li>Trendy is great but be sure to include at least one classic outfit - you don't want your session looking dated within a year.</li> <li>Bring at least 5 outfits or more. &nbsp;We can help choose the outfits that will look best with the locations choosen.</li> <li>Bring several choices of footwear. &nbsp;Feet are included in full length portraits - you don't want the same shoes in all your poses.</li> <li>Be sure nails are groomed nicely. &nbsp;Many close up shots include hands - chipped polish or untrimmed nails can be distracting.</li> <li>Professional hair and makeup is an option or have a trusted friend help you get ready. &nbsp;You'll feel more confident and this will reflect in your poses. &nbsp;</li> </ul> <p>Final tip - wear what makes you smile. &nbsp;The prettiest thing on a girl is always her smile. :)</p> <p><img style="display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;" width="650" border="0" src="http://www.tenderlookphotography.comimages/stories/spring-senior-combo.jpg" /></p> <p>Collection above was created on <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/home">Polyvore</a> - to view shopping information click <a href="http://joannajoy.polyvore.com/">here</a>.</p></div></div><div class="element element-relateditems last"> <h3>Author</h3>Joanna</div> <div class="element element-text first"> What to Wear - Senior Portraits</div><div class="element element-textarea "> <div><p>The &nbsp;big question "What should I wear???" &nbsp;There is no basic answer. &nbsp;If we all wore the same thing we'd be Clone Troopers. &nbsp;We have unique body issues, complexes, preferences, and style attitudes - we wont even mention budgets!
