What to Wear for Your Photoshoot
Before moving on to the details, remember three main rules that work for any location:
Minimum Colors: Use no more than 3 primary colors for the entire family’s (or couple’s) look that harmonize with each other.
No Logos or Prints: Clothing with large lettering, brands, or bright patterns distracts attention from your face and makes the shot look “cheap.”
Light Palette: Beige, white, soft blue, sand, and pastel tones are a win-win option. They reflect light and give the skin a fresh look.
At Sunset by the Sea: Warmth and Tenderness
The sunset sun in Turkey provides a soft, golden light. During this time, the sea takes on a deep hue, while the sky is painted in shades of pink and orange.
Colors: Beige, dusty rose, light blue, delicate peach.
Fabrics: Light, flowing materials (silk, chiffon, muslin) that will flutter beautifully in the sea breeze.
Style: Long maxi dresses, sundresses. For men—linen trousers or shorts in pastel shades and light shirts with rolled-up sleeves.
At Sunrise by the Sea: Freshness and Purity
Morning light is very soft and “cool.” At this time, the sea is as clear as possible, and the beaches are deserted.
Colors: Snow-white, sky-blue, light gray, mint. White looks especially solemn and pure at sunrise.
Fabrics: Cotton, linen, lace (broderie anglaise style).
Style: Laconic looks. For women—simple slip dresses or white sundresses. For men—light chinos and basic T-shirts or polo shirts without unnecessary details.
Old Town
Ancient stones, narrow streets, and antique columns call for more structured and stylish looks. Here, it is important not to get “lost” against the backdrop of the architecture.
Colors: Olive, khaki, mustard, deep beige, or classic white. Contrasting accents (such as ochre) look very striking against the gray stones.
Fabrics: Thick linen, light denim, cotton.
Style: “Safari” style or light casual. Midi dresses, jumpsuits, trousers with creases, or high-quality jeans without holes. For men, shirts with a stand-up collar are an excellent fit.
Accessories: Completing the Look
Accessories add dynamics to the shot and allow for more variety in posing.
Hats: Straw hats with wide or medium brims are ideal for the beach and the old town.
Glasses: Use them as a stylish element on your head or in your hands, but for the main shots, it is better to keep your eyes visible. Choose classic frames.
Jewelry: Minimalist earrings, thin chains. Avoid massive plastic jewelry.
Footwear: For the beach—leather sandals, espadrilles, or barefoot. For the town—loafers, sneakers (clean, without bright inserts), or flat sandals.
Tip: Try to prepare your clothes in advance—they should be ironed and clean. The most important thing in a photoshoot is your mood and comfort, and properly selected clothing will help you feel confident!
