Finding Your Balance Points for Necklaces and Necklines is a game-changer when it comes to choosing accessories that enhance your natural proportions. Moana Robinson, Personal Stylist at B Styled for Life, knows that the right choice of accessories and clothing can make a world of difference.
Planning your wardrobe for a business photoshoot can feel like a big task, but with the right approach, it can also be an empowering part of building your brand. Whether your shoot is in a studio, at home, or on location (like a beautiful retreat), your outfit choices play a major role in how you present yourself and your business.
As a personal stylist, Moana Robinson has helped many women—especially those over 40—choose outfits that not only flatter them but also reflect their values, confidence, and brand identity. Here’s what to keep in mind for a business photoshoot:
1. Stick to Solid Colours Over Prints
Printed fabrics, while fun and expressive, can often distract the eye in photos. Choose solid colours that enhance your features and won’t clash with natural or styled backdrops. Plain fabrics also make it easier for graphic designers to use your images in various formats later.
2. Wear Colours That Flatter You
If you’ve had a personal colour analysis, this is the time to make the most of it. Wearing the right colours can make your skin glow and your eyes sparkle—without relying heavily on makeup or filters. Jewel tones, neutrals, and soft earthy colours often work beautifully in photos.
3. Plan for Three Versatile Outfits
Give your photographer range and flexibility by packing at least three outfits:
- **A professional look:** Great for your website or LinkedIn
- **A relaxed, approachable look:** Ideal for Instagram or blog photos
- **A signature brand look:** Reflects your personality and business (maybe a pop of your brand colour or a meaningful accessory)
4. Dress to Represent Your Brand
Think about how you want to be perceived. Does your business feel elegant, vibrant, grounded, or energetic? Your clothing should echo this. Aim to align your outfit choices with your visual branding and the tone of your services or products.
5. Consider the Photoshoot Setting
If your photoshoot is taking place at a retreat or an outdoor location consider how your outfits will work with the surroundings. Light, breathable fabrics work well in warm climates. Natural textures like linen or cotton can complement ocean and greenery backdrops.
6. Keep Accessories Simple but Intentional
Accessories can be powerful style elements. Choose pieces that enhance your look without overpowering it. A statement necklace or earrings that sit at your balance point can elevate a simple outfit beautifully.
7. Be Comfortable and True to You
The most important element? Feeling comfortable and confident. When your clothes fit well and feel like “you,” it shows in every photo. Authenticity always shines through.
Final Thoughts
Your photoshoot is more than a photo session—it’s an opportunity to express your story visually. Thoughtfully planned outfits that reflect your colours, brand, and personality will help you stand out and feel confident wherever your images are shared. You would have discussed with your photographer how to get the most of your session and he or she will give you some great posing tips.
