34: Styling Guidance for your Clients
Being photographed can bring up all sorts of emotions for your clients... excitement, anticipation, overwhelm, vulnerability...
And when getting your clients prepared for the photoshoot, it is important that you make them feel supported and encouraged.... and enough.
Invariably one of the main questions they will want answered is what clothes they should bring.
Rather than giving them a list of what to wear and what not to wear, I like to support them to make choices that feel right for them.
It is important to make sure the images look and feel authentic to the person that shows up in person.
But it is also important they bring a range of clothes you can work with too!
* How to avoid being too rigid
* The importance of listening
* How to use context with your suggestions
* How to support your client so they feel confident
