Want to learn how style your outfits for amazing senior pictures??!!??

ACCESSORIES can often be overlooked! They not only make your senior portrait outfit complete, they also help with posing and give you something to do with your hands!

🔹 Sunglasses/glasses - this is such a great accessory that can double as a prop, give you something to play with in your photos and have fun with too!

🔹 Scarves- Scarves can be worn around your neck and are especially great in fall or winter sessions. But you can also think of scarves as a great accessory to add to your hair. Tie is on your head, around a ponytail or even wear it around your neck to add a bit of pattern to your outfit.

🔹 Hats - Hats are a great accessory because they are easy to put on and take off. You can change up the look of an outfit without having to change clothes just by adding a hat! They also add a little attitude and give you something to do with your hands!

🔹 Belts- Belts are great to accentuate your waist and complete an outfit. If you wear a shapeless dress, a belt will give your shape and if your pants are a little too big, a belt will help them fit perfectly.

🔹 Jewelry - This is a must have accessory! If you wear no other accessory, wear jewelry! Bracelets, rings, necklaces and earrings are the finishing touches to your outfits. You don't have to wear them all at once but make sure you wear a few pieces with each outfit so your outfit looks finished and polished.

🔹 BONUS - Jackets/ Cardigans - Both of these are great additions and help add and change up your outfits. Don’t forget to add in your Lettermen Jacket too! They help polish off any outfit!

No matter which accessory or accessories you choose to wear with your outfits for your senior portrait session, make sure to follow these guidelines:

🔹 Don’t wear all at once! You don’t have to wear all the accessories, just the ones that you like best and make sure the ones you do wear work with the outfit.

🔹 Don’t let the accessories overwhelm you! Chunky scarves may be all the rage but if you are small and petite a big scarf will overwhelm your frame. Choose accessories that are right for you and your body type.

🔹 Try everything on together before your session! Make sure you try on your complete outfit including the accessories to make sure it looks good. And if you need to remove a few items, do so.

🔹Choose accessories that mean something to you. Maybe your mom gave you her favorite scarf or your grandmother handed down a piece of jewelry or you wear the same hat all the time…..if so, those are great accessories to wear for your senior pictures!

We hope this accessory guide helps you when it comes to what to add to your outfits for your senior portrait session!
