Taking
great presentable outfit picture is a learned skill, which can only get better
by practice and of course, using a good camera. If you look back at some of my
pictures from when I started blogging you can obviously tell there is a good
difference, I’ve definitely gotten better at taking pictures. Today on the
blog, I’d be sharing with you some tips I’ve learned for taking great outfit photos,
but before we go further let’s take some time to admire this simple casual
dress. This is the second dress I got
from Rosegal. Please do check them out, they are currently on sales and cyber Monday
is happening right now

WHAT I’M WEARING
TIPS
FOR TAKING GREAT OUTFIT PICTURES
1. The
most important thing is to get a good camera; I’d suggest a professional
camera, Canon, Nikon, et al. The lens
on a professional camera is great for outfit detail, and it blurs out the
background giving your picture a sharp quality. So for a great outfit picture,
it’s great to invest in it. If you don’t have the resources for that, then use
a good camera phone that can produce great outcome as well.
2. Plan
your outfit ahead of time, that way everything goes together. Planning outfit
ahead of time helps you access your outfit determining what needs to be added
or excluded from the outfit. It also helps you to be creative with the outfit.
3. I do
this a lot; I shoot multiple looks in a day. This helps with time management
and also helps you balance blogging with work, school and life. You don’t have
to get ready everyday for pictures. Use a totally free day to shoot as many
outfits as possible and bank them. Should in case something comes up such as,
climate change, emergency or mood swings.
4. Scout
out background that blends well with the outfit you have in mind to shoot,
finding a great background helps with your shoot. When you are working with a
busy outfit it’s best to keep the background noise to a minimum. It’s always
good to be in the hunt for new attractive backgrounds for your outfit. Using
the same background often can get boring.
5. If you
do not have a friend or family member that can photograph you, find a
photographer that understands your esthetic. Make sure you work with a
photographer that understand the brief and your aesthetic. To be on the safe
side, send them samples of your shoot so they know what you are looking for.
6. Do not
be shy, taking outfit pictures for the blog requires versatility, so don’t be
shy to try new poses that you are comfortable in, and also match your
aesthetic. Try new poses every so often to change it up a bit. Find your signature
look.
7. Let your
outfit do the talking, sometimes you can get creative and style an outfit piece
in two ways, call it a look book. You can also think outside the box and use
props to add color to it.
8. Finally
and most importantly, shoot in great light. Lighting can really make a
difference. Shoot outdoors when possible. Photographers do say the best time to
shoot is in the morning before the sun is up.
These are
my tips to a great outfit shoot, I hope it helps.

Well if that works for you too then it's fine. Compliments of the season.
DeleteLighting and a DSLR camera is everything! It's always good to invest in a better lens than what comes with the camera too, you usually get a standard one, but if you invest more money in a separate lens, the quality is much better.
