We really want you to look and feel your best!
With our tips, and gorgeous photo inspo, we are going to rock and roll your next summer beach session!
Summer Photo Shoot Clothing Ideas
Make it Colorful, Make it POP!
There are lots of great looks you can incorporate into your session, but I recommend one thing over all: be comfortable!
Get All Dolled Up
Preparing for your summer session is the perfect reason to get all dolled up!
Summertime is notorious for being hot, sticky, and humid here in Virginia Beach.
This is a great excuse to get your hair and makeup professionally done. I’m telling you, those false lashes really do make your photos super glam! Plus, you’ll know that your glam look isn’t going anywhere!
We work with a lot of amazing beauty artists here in Hampton Roads, and would be happy to give you some recommendations!
It’s All in the Details
When planning your outfits, make sure to spend time thinking about little things. Details like hats, jewelry, scarves, etc.
These elements can help tie in your outfits and make everything feel cohesive in the image.
Having a statement piece is wonderful, but make sure the subject (you) remains the focus.

Style is Timeless
Whether y’all are laid back and casual (beach bums unite!), or dressed to the nines (hello catwalk) – we are going to have an amazing session!
When it comes to what you/your group will wear, no style is “wrong”, but it is definitely important for everyone to be on the same page.
In other words, don’t have some people come wearing tee shirts, and others come in a suit.
The location you choose can also dictate the style.
For example, beach sessions are usually a little more laid back, while urban settings can be dressier.
Remember – your outfits don’t have to “match”, they have to go!
Comfort Is Key
Here it is.
One of the most important pieces of advice I can give you: wear what you feel good in!
How you perceive yourself in a particular image, will affect how you see the final image.
If you think that you are all that and a bag of chips (finger snap), then you’re going to feel great and the pictures are going to be amazing!
If you wear something and all you can see is a flaw, then (regardless of how gorgeous you are in the image), you won’t be able to appreciate the image.
We suggest wearing clothes that are fitted, but not too tight. That way you ensure there aren’t any bulges in the wrong places.
Bottom line?
Be comfortable, look awesome, create amazing pictures!
