Hello, how are you doing? I genuinely like your site ! I was wondering if you might help me (I am certain your other subscribers may also be interested). I want to get into creating a blog also and I currently have a blog with Word Press, but it is quite difficult for me to build and I would like to attempt to find several good training guides or courses (preferably free) that can assist me in making use of wordpress correctly. As a word press web master yourself, do you perhaps maybe know where i can learn online tutorials to be able to do this myself?? Thank you

On my photoshoots on location I always wear my jeans and t-shirts. (colourful ofcourse)
In the studio, the same, I do a lot of maternity photography in there. And people do not really care what I wear.

But on the wedding, I try not to overdress, but I have to be dressed properly.
But often on weddings in the Netherlands, to blend in, you need a t-shirt.

Greets,
Chris

My first choice for shoes and boots are Camper shoes and Red Wings’ 875 boots. They both look serious (unlike sports sneakers) and are very comfy.

When shooting documentaries or portraits, I wear jeans, converse shoes and simple t-shirts that won’t attract too much attention. I love being able to wear ‘normal’ clothes and feeling at ease! I also think it helps for people to be comfortable when I dress a bit like them - and in case of editorial assigments they’ll mostly wear jeans too.

Of course, when shooting a wedding I dress quite different. Black trousers, black t-shirt, black/dark grey & proper sweater or cardigan.

Still looking for the perfect wedding clothes though, I’d love to fit in with the guests in terms of properness, and be invisible and comfortable at the same time. And the things I wear need to still look okay after I’ve spend time on the ground, in bushes and climbing up dirty walls.

My attire is about the same regardless of the time of day, weather, or time of year.
Usually a Nomex Jacket with lots of yellow and orange reflective stripes.
Nomex pants with suspenders and again the same reflective stripping.
Leather helmet and Leather boots. gloves are the neoprene.

You see I am a fire investigator and forensic photographer.

When photographing animals, I sit a lot on the ground. I always have a pair of waterproof trousers in my car.
Not very fashionable, but extreemly usefull somethimes.
I also never wear thin fabric when working with animals. Nails or teeth can destroy to easy.

Always wear dark clothes, especially when you’re shooting events with more photographers or videographers. You won’t be noticed as much, and won’t ruin someone else’s picture because you’re flashy shirt atrracts all the attention.

@Michella: I agree! A good supportive bra works wonders! I find it rather funny to see all those man talk about their fashionpreferences

As a girl, I always wear black during a shoot, mostly comfy black pants and a black t-shirt. AND my black Nike silent shoes. I love high heels but never wear them during a shoot. One of those little sacrifices
