Choosing the Right Accessories for Your Senior Portraits

You’ve got your outfit planned, know exactly what you’re doing with your hair, and have already spoken to the makeup artist about that wicked cat eye. Now it’s time to consider your accessories, which can make or break your outfit. Here are four things to keep in mind.

Don’t let the accessories wear you. Too big or too many can overwhelm your face and body, taking away from the overall image. This is about you. Choose accessories that mean something to you. Maybe you want to wear a ring your mother gave you, or those earrings that always earn you compliments.

Try not to choose anything that’s heavily ornamented. In a few years, ultra trendy items can look really, really dated. Funky and fun are A-OK, of course, but be thoughtful in your decisions.

Make sure your accessories all work well with your outfit. For example, a thin belt may flatter your figure more than a thick belt. And those dangly earrings may look best with your hair up while the studs look good with your hair down.

Get a second, and third, opinion. Wear everything you plan to put on for your session day and ask for someone else’s advice. Take some pictures, even, and ask your friends and family if they have any suggestions.

Preparing for your glamour session: Part 4 Wardrobe

What do I wear?! – I know this is one of the hardest parts of preparing for photo sessions. The idea is to show off your personal style while looking your best! There are thousands of “dress for your shape” tutorials on blogs (Who, What, Wear is one of my faves!) and in magazines but the most important thing is to ensure everything fits properly. Keep in mind an outfit that is gorgeous in person…

Preparing for your glamour session: Part 3 Foundations

Wear Proper Foundations – I know what you’re thinking, didn’t we cover this yesterday? No, I’m not talking makeup here! The wrong bra can kill an outfit and make you look slouchy, or even worse droopy! Also, check for panty lines! VPL isn’t attractive on anyone regardless of body type. Take it from the Duchess (Kate Middleton that is) pantyhose are your friend! Get some that are super sheer and…

Preparing for your glamour session: Part 2 Hair and Makeup

Hair and Makeup – We highly recommend using a makeup artist. Some of our packages include hair and makeup on location otherwise we can schedule an appointment for you at MAC or Sephora where they will know how to make your skin look fresh and flawless! If you want to do your own hair and makeup that is fine too, but we want to make you feel like a star! What makes DreamCapture Photography stand…

Preparing for your glamour session: Part 1 Pre-session Beauty Prep

Pre-Session Beauty Prep – We suggest getting a mani/pedi a few days prior to your session, chipped polish and glamour don’t go together. Don’t forget that unwanted facial hair, no shame here, we all have some, even if it is just shaping those eyebrows! If you wax don’t forget to pencil that into your schedule. I recommend European Wax Center, totally worth the drive to Greensboro and if you have…
