September 02, 2023 12:26 PM by Isaias J | Discover

If you want to add an extra element to your photoshoot, both as the photographer and the subject of the images, there is a wealth of choices you can make to help you add an extra element to the photos and give them a different look.

5 Accessories for the best Photoshoot

Whether you use the accessories in the image with a person or scene or use them alone as the sole focus, accessories are excellent ways to experiment and play around with what you can do to capture exciting news pictures and expand your skills.

Read on to find out 5 accessories that are ideal for photoshoots.

1. Body Jewellery

Body piercings can make for an exciting element to a picture, from capturing a person's ear adorned with jewelry around the whole ear to getting up close and personal with someone wearing a snake bite piercing jewelry accessory. You can play around with the focus of the image, making it the center shot, or you can get creative and have fun with the different piercings they have to bring them to life..

2. Hats & Caps

A hat in a photoshoot can instantly add a whole new look and change your pictures entirely. Caps don't even need to be worn just on the head; you can play around with holding it in different places or use it as a prop and add in some Photoshop elements afterward for the extra wow factor. Hats aren't solely for keeping your head warm or protected from the sun; they can also be an excellent accessory for your images.

3. Watches

Watches are an everyday ordinary accessory, but they can also be an excellent addition to photo shoots on their own or a wrist. Ask the subject to pose with their watch on and capture them from a different angle or use it to help them feel less self-conscious by making the watch the focus. Either way, you can get some exciting shots from making the watch your priority, not the person wearing it.

4. Sunglasses

You cannot go wrong with a pair of sunglasses for your photoshoot. From the classic Ray-Bans to stylish colored lenses and different sizes and styles, they are a fun accessory, and you can get a variety of different pictures by simply having a person apply them around with how they are wearing them.

5. Bags

Bags are available in thousands of style sizes and colors, and as such, you can guarantee they can add a whole new perspective to your photoshoot and bring your pictures to life. Get your subject to play around with the bag, hold it up in the air, have it moving, wear it on the shoulder, and capture it from behind. Whatever you do, you can get some practice in working with different features and angles, all from the humble bag.

Choosing the right accessory for your shoot can all depend on the outcome you want and the type of person you are shooting if you include a person in the session. They can help you push your skills and get something different from your standard shot.
