Tips for the Guys
Tips for the Guys
- Choose at least one dressy outfit (the parent/grandparents' favorite).
- For the boys, this might be a full suit with a button-up shirt
- A blazer with slacks, khakis, or jeans, and a button-up or a nice, solid t-shirt beneath it.
- Choose at least one dressier casual. This might be an outfit you’d wear for a holiday get-together or for church.
- This could be a button-up shirt with the sleeves rolled up or a polo with khakis or jeans.
- Nice shorts and a polo work well in warmer months.
- In the colder months, a colored Henley or quarter zip sweater looks nice too.
- Choose one outfit that says, “This is who I am.” The possibilities are endless here because you are unique.
- This might be something trendy, something casual, or something uniquely you. Express your style.
- Your options could be suits, shorts, jeans, joggers, etc. Examples include activewear, graphic tees, flannel, hoodies, leather jackets, western wear, and the above mentioned ideas.
- A team Jersey or other sports/spirit group attire can be used as an option or add-on.
- You may want to wear something representing your university.
- Cap and Gown. We have a selection to use from many area schools, so you can wear one of ours or bring your own. Don't forget something to wear beneath the cap and gown. Preferably, a light-colored button-up shirt and slacks or khakis, with or without a tie. Some seniors have worn T-shirts and shorts, or spirit/sports uniforms beneath the gown.
- Remember to try on your outfits well in advance of your session so that you can make adjustments.
- Remember to choose some outfits that allow movement. Something you can sit or squat in comfortably allows a variety of posing options.
- Don't forget accessories.
- You may be thinking, "What accessories?"
- Guys love their shoes. You may opt for a variety from sneakers to dress shoes to complement your outfits.
- A pair of sunglasses can provide a nice option.
- A favorite chain or a watch.
- Your class ring, if you've purchased one.
- Wear a hat if that’s your thing—a cowboy hat or a favorite ball cap for some shots.
- You can wear a leather jacket or your letterman jacket over an outfit, for a few shots.
