- Wear clothes that are comfortable and that make you look great
- Make sure your jacket and shirt fit you well. A poor fitting jacket or shirt will be obvious in the photos (especially around the neck)
- Don’t overdress
- Turtlenecks are almost always a bad idea (since they crowd the face)
- Clothes should be neatly pressed and should look new or like new
- Avoid busy patterns and large lines/stripes
- Too tight, too short = Too much.
- Keep jewelry extremely simple - small is better
- Avoid jewelry that would distract from your face or that looks dated
- Consider if facial piercings or multiple ear piercings are appropriate for where your photo or video will be displayed
- Check your eyebrows
- Check for stray nose hairs - trim as needed
- Make-up should be clean and natural
- Avoid shimmers or products with lots of sparkle or shine
- Avoid frosts or overly bright colors
- Don’t get a new haircut just before the shoot (you may want to let it grow in a bit or get used to styling a new cut)
- Do not try/use any new product on your hair, face, or body the day before or few days before your shoot.
