Photographer’s notes: why it works…
I was thrilled when I saw Julia’s top and then she brought out those shoes! This style of top and the colors are really versatile to go with many settings and royal and navy blue photograph so beautifully. I love the subtle texture that playfully complements the pattern. She made such a great choice with a necklace that doesn’t compete with the neckline of the top; it falls right above and below while offering lots of detail in the layers. I absolutely LOVED her bracelet and ring pairing, they all worked together really well and with the whole ensemble. Finally, you just can’t go wrong with wedges!
Q+A with Julia
What made you choose this outfit for your shoot?
I wanted something casual, but pretty and unique. And I really loved the colors.
What did you love about this outfit? How did you feel wearing it?
I absolutely loved my shirt and shoes the most, the off the shoulder blouse made me feel beautiful. The shoes were comfortable and adorable. The outfit itself made me feel comfortable and good about myself.
Do you have any tips to share for shopping/prepping for a senior shoot:
My tips would be to choose an outfit that is casual and comfortable but is unique and beautiful in its own way. Take your time while choosing your outfits because senior pictures will be seen forever. You want to love your outfit every time you look back at the pictures. Theresa was also amazing putting my outfits together and recommending certain outfits for certain locations.
