Iconic Brand Photoshoot Wardrobe Guide (for men)

There's no question that
great wardrobe = great photoshoot

People ask me all the time: what should I wear for my photoshoot?

Great wardrobe doesn't mean designer only wardrobe.
Great photoshoot wardrobe is wardrobe that is authentic to you
and compliments your look well.


Check out these Iconic Outfits:


  1. Suit + Tie

    A classic for a reason, the suit and tie combo brings instant polish and professionalism. Whether it's a tailored navy, charcoal, or soft grey, it frames you with intention and structure.

    Keep it fresh by opting for modern cuts, a slim tie, or a textured fabric. This look works especially well for entrepreneurs, executives or anyone wanting to convey authority with style.


2. Dress Shirt

Clean, simple, and versatile — a well-fitted dress shirt is a timeless choice that strikes the perfect balance between relaxed and refined. It keeps the focus on you while still feeling elevated.

Go for solid tones like white, light blue, or soft earth tones.

Want to add interest? Try a subtle stripe, a roll of the sleeves, or layering with a jacket or vest for dimension.


3. Blazer + Shirt (No Tie)

Polished yet approachable, the blazer-and-shirt combo without a tie strikes the ideal balance between casual and elevated.

It’s perfect for showcasing confidence without looking too formal.

Stick with a crisp button-up and a well-tailored blazer—think structured but not stiff. Soft textures, muted colors, or a patterned shirt can add personality while keeping things photo-ready.


4. Casual Cool

A casual outfit doesn’t mean unpolished—it’s all about intention and fit. Think well-fitted basics with clean lines and a touch of personality. This style works especially well for creative brands or personal shoots where authenticity is key.

Opt for quality fabrics, interesting color choices, or a standout piece to elevate the look. Casual can still feel put-together when every element feels considered.


5. Sweaters & Turtlenecks

Sweaters and turtlenecks bring a refined, elegant feel to photos—and they photograph beautifully. To keep the look versatile and avoid it feeling too seasonal, steer clear of winter-specific patterns (like snowflakes or Fair Isle) and overly chunky knits.

Instead, go for smooth, medium-weight textures in solid or neutral tones. Layer under a jacket or wear solo for a clean, modern look that feels cozy without screaming “holiday card.”


6. Polo Shirt (long sleeve)

Polo shirts offer a timeless, polished look that photographs effortlessly—especially when made from a soft knit. To keep the style modern and elevated, opt for long-sleeve versions in solid, neutral tones and skip sporty logos or bold patterns. Worn on their own or layered under a blazer, knit polos strike the perfect balance between relaxed and refined, making them a versatile choice for portraits that feel classic without trying too hard.


7. Polo Shirt (short sleeve)

Short-sleeve polos bring an easy sophistication that works beautifully on camera. Choose one in a soft, fine-knit fabric that drapes well and feels elevated, not sporty. Solid colors in muted or neutral tones photograph best, keeping the focus on you rather than the clothing. Whether paired with tailored trousers or dark denim, a short-sleeve polo offers that effortless blend of comfort and confidence—refined enough for a portrait, yet relaxed enough to feel natural.

Deborah

After we had the pleasure of capturing lovely Dr. Deborah Rosati, she shared her experience of stepping outside of her comfort zone, which included a Brand Photoshoot among other projects. Here’s what she wrote:

When the shoot day arrived, I was nervous. I had done my best to prepare my mind, body, and soul for the experience, but I still didn’t know what to expect. As it turned out, I had nothing to worry about. Agnes guided me through every step, helping me stay present, feel confident, and find the courage to be authentic. It was like nothing I’d ever done before! […]

As a longtime yoga practitioner, I am familiar with the principles of mindfulness—focusing on the present moment and observing your thoughts and emotions without judgment. But it wasn’t until the photo shoot that I realized you could use those same tools to approach an uncomfortable or intimidating situation.

By being present, not only was I able to shake off my nerves, but I was able to let my true self shine through in front of the camera.

As Agnes so eloquently explains it, “It will change the way you see yourself!”

Trusting the process

Looking back at each of these moments, I can’t help but notice a trend; each time, everything changed when I trusted the process.

In governance, our job is all about processes. We do our best work when we stick to the steps and trust the experts, knowing that they are great at what they do. […]

Remember, stepping outside your comfort zone is a journey of self-discovery and personal growth. Feeling apprehensive or uncertain is normal, but embracing challenges and pushing your boundaries can unlock new opportunities and help you realize your full potential. Embrace the discomfort—and the growth.

My advice? Surround yourself with a supportive network of individuals who encourage and challenge you. Find people who are great at what they do and place your trust in their processes. You’ll be glad you took the leap.
