Did a portrait session with several young ladies in their early twenties a week ago for the twenty-first of one of them. I gave them the usual advice, also mentioned to avoid the very short skirts. Well, you guess it, they all came in short to very short dresses. I mean, very short, I had to be avoid shots showing underwear. But the resulting images were very nice, including individual portraits and interaction shots. A lot of normal rules for portrait sessions were “broken” here, but nevertheless, we produced over 100 great fun shots.

I think one lesson is not to stress out when the sitter/s do not follow advice on clothing. Just relax and go with it. Have fun. If the shoot is fun, that will always show on the images.

For the purposes of unity, if you have a few people in a shot and they are of the same family, organisation or company, it helps if there’s a common motif to what they’re wearing. Everyone’s familiar with the hackneyed blue jeans and white T-shirt in family portraits but what this does is signal these people are part of a group (and everyone has these options in their wardrobe).

Choosing a common colour that everyone wears in some way, even if just in a headband or scarf, can help to tie together the people in your shot.

I don’t like overstepping on telling people how to dress but come on! Nice family portraits and you have somebody wearing beat up flip flops, uncoordinated outfits which includes large horizontal stripes that get distorted. Shirts with words on them, noooo! Also annoying to remind people to remove their sunglasses and handbags.

I don’t think there’s some obvious rules to get good photographs.If you have good ideas of how to take photographs, you can get good and bad both results…not always.
I’ve seen some not good looking situation but were portrayed so well in photographs.Some amateurs accidentally get it right and sometimes good photographers result is not so good.
So I think you should follow your instinct…! I know many of us are well learnt from so many photo websites , google,youtube,etc We learn from mistakes-own and of others.
So you should always be ready to measure , judge your own photographs and accept any critics on your photographs and use it to sharpen your skill.
No one likes any critic comments , I bet !
But we are photographers , we are always learning… !
I see many personal websites of people here who are amazingly stunning .. And I sometimes stick their composition styles and judge my own ..not theirs !

Additionally, this is virtual world…50% works are of Editing software so you should also learn well how to put some good effect without heavily manipulations.
