Photoshoot clothing ideas for summer:
Here at Cherrie Coutts Photography, one of the most common questions I get from clients is what to wear on a photoshoot. Normally, I would send a descriptive email explaining photoshoot clothing ideas, but as I am a visual person I thought it best to actually create a visual guide for people to take in.
Summer can be a very fickle time, and even in the city there can be many locations where you’ll see people sun chasing with a glass of Rose wine. Summer in Stockholm is like visiting a different country as the whole city comes alive to bask in what little sun we actually get.
I always ask couples to try and match each other a little bit, or even better, try and match the location of their photoshoot to some extent. This isn’t to say you need to go and dress like you’re spending the day at the beach, but being aware of colours can be very beneficial. And not just the colours of your surroundings, but each other’s colours as well.
Weather you’re a fan of Pumps or of Converse, it all works as long as it’s your style. You don’t need to go out and buy a special outfit for the occasion at all, but some couples definitely like to do just that. Either way, paying attention to complimenting colours and textures actually helps you to compliment each other and create a really great matching….. but not TOO matching…. set of outfits.
Below you can see some Photoshoot clothing ideas that have worked really well for some of my couples during the Summer months, both in Stockholm and abroad. As you can see, some couples chose to be very formal, while others opted for a more casual approach, but in each case, they are either matching each other or their surroundings or even both.

Great and informative post! I think lots of people will find this very helpful. It can be so stressful trying to decide what to wear for your photo shoot but it doesn’t have to be!
It’s amazing how hard it can be to pick something out, too!
What a great guide for summer photo sessions! Love the “what to wear” examples you shared!
Thanks, Corey!
I love summer portrait sessions. It is great to have a what to wear ( and not wear) guide!
Definitely! I think everyone wants to feel a little pampered, too.
Great info for you clients in Stockholm!

Great information for clients! I am always asked this question, this is on point.
I get asked all the time, too. I’m a visual person so it made sense to show something rather than explaining. 🙂
