Many photographers book portraiture sessions and don't lay down firm guidelines for what the clients should wear, you MUST tell them, advise them in an assertive and professional manner, show them examples of how shots are ruined by the wrong choice of attire.
For example:
Imagine this, you contact your clients 'Mr and Mrs Smith and Family' to discuss their portraiture session. You first quietly say "It may be better if you all wear white tee shirts". Mrs Smith, doesn't respond, she has her own firm ideas about what she will wear. You then proceed to change the subject and gloss over the topic hoping she has heard you...you smile and say nothing more.
Next thing you know is the day has arrived and they turn up in the most ghastly outfits imaginable, none of which compliment the other!
Remember, clients know ONLY their OWN preferences for clothing style. WE must teach them our known preference, what we know from experience will give a classic image. In the above example, Mrs Smith was more assertive than you were, and as a result spoiled not only her own family portrait but your chances of higher sales too!
You need to convince the Mrs Smiths of the world that you know from experience what will give the best results. This is a new guide out that goes into this much deeper.
