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:
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.
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.
Give your photographer range and flexibility by packing at least three outfits:
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.

Yes, it is important to know the colours that highlight your skin, hair, and eyes. Yes, it is important to know your body shape. Many women think this is the magic answer to “Style”.
