What To Wear For Your Soulful Session - With out losing your damn mind!
Let’s talk about the question everyone asks before a shoot:
“But what the heck do I wear??”
Short answer? You wear you.
Long answer? I’ve got you—because outfit planning shouldn’t feel like a panic attack in your closet.
First things first: This is not about being trendy
This is about choosing clothes that help you feel powerful, radiant, and deeply you. Forget Pinterest-perfect outfit formulas—this is sacred self-expression. Your shoot is about telling your story, and your wardrobe is just one brushstroke in that masterpiece.
What makes an outfit "Wild Soul Approved"?
Here’s the vibe checklist:
✨ Movement: Think fabrics that catch the breeze and flow when you twirl. Linen, cotton, lace, silk, chiffon—yes, yes, yes. Movement adds drama and emotion to your images.
✨ Texture: Knit sweaters, velvet jackets, frayed denim, worn-in leather… texture photographs beautifully and adds depth and soul.
✨ Layering: A cozy shawl. A kimono. A statement belt. A funky hat. These little details give you variety without needing a full wardrobe change.
✨ Color: Earth tones. Muted jewel tones. Soft neutrals. Think sunset palettes, forest tones, boho queen, and witchy greys. Avoid neon (unless neon is totally your vibe—then rock it unapologetically).
✨ Accessories with meaning: Your grandmother’s ring. A crystal necklace. A tattered journal or tarot deck. These personal touches are visual magic.
Things that don’t serve the vibe:
🚫 Distracting logos or text
🚫 Busy patterns that pull focus
🚫 Anything that makes you constantly adjust, tug, or feel self-conscious
🚫 Anything that’s “just because you think you should” (ugh, no thank you)
Still not sure? Here’s my advice:
Pick the outfit that makes you feel most like yourself on your best day.
Would you wear it barefoot in a meadow? Dancing at sunset? Laughing with your best friend? Perfect. That’s your look.
And if you’re torn between two outfits? Bring them both. I’m all about options.
Bonus: Feel free to break all the rules
You want to show up in a leather jacket and combat boots? Love that for you.
Wanna drape yourself in velvet and hold a bundle of sage? YES PLEASE.
Jeans and a tee that feels like home? It’s a vibe.
There’s no right way to show up, except as yourself.
