1. Dress Like the Face of Your Brand
Your outfit should reflect your brand personality. Ask yourself:
Are you bold, calm, high-end, fun, earthy, colorful?
How would you show up to meet your dream client?
What colors, styles, and textures feel most you?
💡 Pro Tip: Look at your website or brand palette—try to include similar tones in your outfits.
2. Choose 2–4 Outfit Options
Variety = more content! Think:
Professional Look:Â Blazer, dress, jumpsuit, or tailored pants
Casual/Approachable Look:Â Jeans + a cute blouse or graphic tee
Creative Look:Â Flowing dress, fun prints, layers, or statement pieces
Lifestyle Look:Â Something cozy like a sweater or button-up for home office or coffee shop vibes
🎨 Stick to solid colors, subtle patterns, and clothes that flatter your shape. Neutrals, muted tones, and your brand colors photograph best!
3. Accessorize with Intention
✔ Jewelry (simple or bold—whatever fits your vibe)✔ Scarves, glasses, hats (if they’re part of your usual look)✔ Props: laptop, coffee mug, notebook, product, phone, camera, tools of your trade
👜 Bonus Tip: Bring a bag or tote that matches your aesthetic. It adds lifestyle depth to your photos!
4. Grooming & Details Matter
✔ Hair + makeup: Clean and polished, but still you (consider booking a pro)✔ Nails: Neutral or brand-matching polish✔ Iron clothes in advance—wrinkles show!✔ Avoid lint, pet hair, and overly tight or baggy outfits
💄 Even a natural glam can boost confidence and camera glow.
5. Wear What You Feel Good In
Comfort = confidence. If you feel awkward in it, it will show. Wear what makes you feel:
Empowered
Professional
Authentic
Like you could walk into a brand deal right now

✅ 2–4 outfits✅ Accessories + shoes✅ Props & tools✅ Clean + ironed clothing✅ Hair/makeup ready✅ Confidence + a smile 😄
Final Thought:
Your branding photos should look like your best day at work—when you’re confident, lit up, and ready to make magic. Show up as your authentic self, and your audience will feel it through every frame.
