1. Opt for coordinated, comfortable outfits: before the session, take the time to prepare yourself so that you feel comfortable and confident in front of the lens. Opt for coordinated outfits that create visual harmony, without too many patterns and bright colors. Choose a consistent color palette: navy blue, white, beige, brown, khaki, coral, while allowing each member of the family or couple to reflect his or her own personality. Make sure you choose comfortable clothes that allow you to move around freely and enjoy every moment with your loved ones.
It’s important to consider the visibility of tattoos. Tattoos can be important personal and artistic elements, but they can also attract attention and distract the eye from the main objective of the photo shoot, which is to capture interaction and complicity. Try to minimize the visibility of your tattoos with clothing that covers them.
2. Consider the location of the photo shoot: The choice of clothing can be influenced by the location of the photo shoot. If you’re planning an outdoor session, choose outfits that complement the natural environment. For a session at the beach, light, casual outfits would be ideal (sober t-shirt, Bermuda shorts, for example), while dressier outfits might be appropriate for a city shoot (shirt, linen pants, for example). During the photo session, enjoy the surroundings by exploring the area and taking part in the activities on offer. This will capture real-life moments and illustrate the many opportunities for relaxation and fun that the destination has to offer.
3. Accessorize sparingly: accessories can add a touch of originality and style to your outfits during a lifestyle photo shoot. However, it’s important to use them sparingly so as not to steal the show from your interactions and complicity as a family or couple. Choose simple, elegant accessories that complement your outfits without overpowering them. Delicate jewelry or a trendy hat can be good choices for adding a touch of elegance to your outfits without making them too distracting.
4. Children are free to express themselves and have fun as they wish: if you’re with a family, encourage your children to express themselves freely and have fun during the photo session.
5. Let’s meet and discuss the concept: Let’s take the time to discuss the locations and scenes to be captured. Share your ideas and ask any questions you may have. We’re here to make sure you feel at ease. During the shoot, we’ll guide you through poses, positions and expressions.
The main aim of the photo shoot is to capture authentic, shared moments to create lasting memories. Interact naturally with each other, laugh, play and show your true emotions. The best shots will be those that reflect the complicity, love and happiness shared within your family or your couple.
