Blazer, a piece of clothing a woman needs for a photoshoot.
Blazer is perfect not only for professional headshots, but also for creative and romantic or sensual photoshoots. Blazer will add sophistication and elegance, making you feel and appear more confident and polished.
And for Seattle and Pacific Northwest in general, the blazer is practical.
Color & Material
Play on blazer color may add a differentiating feature to your portrait. Consider the texture of the fabric, blazers made with natural materials may add to the sophistication and luxury of the image.
Shape
The tailored lines of a blazer can flatter body shapes and provide visual structure in the image. A well-tailored fit (watch the shoulders) with a defined waistline or a longer blazer that hits below the hip bone tends to create a lengthening and slimming look.
Photoshoot goals
Professional: The blazer is timeless and points to professionalism and credibility.
Creative: Pair the structured blazer with something unexpected or casual, something more playful and you get a fun creative vibe.
Romantic and sensual: Take layers off, but keep a blazer on, and maybe even take your shoes off. Play with your blazer, one shoulder off, close your eyes… Play on the contrast of formality and sensuality will create a memorable image.
