Seven tips for picking out clothing for a portrait session for warm skin tones:

1. Think Earthy Tones:  Choose clothing in warm, earthy colors like terracotta, olive green, mustard yellow, or deep burgundy. These hues compliment warm skin tones beautifully.

2. Avoid Cool Colors:  Steer clear of colors that are too cool or icy, like bright blues, purples, or stark whites. These can contrast sharply with warm skin tones and may not photograph as well.

3. Try Jewel Tones:  Jewel tones such as emerald green, rich plum, or deep navy can also be stunning on warm skin tones. They add a touch of elegance and depth to your portraits.

4. Consider Patterns:  If you're into patterns, opt for ones with warm undertones like floral prints with warm hues or geometric patterns in earthy tones. Just be mindful not to choose overly busy patterns that distract from your face.

5. Accessorize Wisely:  Add accessories like scarves, hats, or jewelry in complementary colors to enhance your outfit without overwhelming the overall look. These can also add a personal touch to your portraits.

6. Think about Texture:  Textured fabrics like knits, tweeds, or linen can add visual interest to your outfit and create a cozy, inviting vibe in your portraits.

7. Test it Out: Before your session, do a trial run with your chosen outfit under similar lighting conditions to see how it looks on camera. This way, you can make any adjustments or changes if needed to ensure you look your best on the day of the shoot.

These tips will help you choose clothing that enhances your warm skin tones and creates stunning portraits that you'll love for years to come!
