What to wear, I hear you ask.
Do you worry about how to style yourself & your little ones for a photography session? Well I have you covered, here are a few tips to help. I am also here for my clients every step of the way so you can chat to me about your styling too.
Coordinate, Don't Match
Pick a color palette (e.g., neutrals, pastels, earth tones, or jewel tones).
- Mix and match shades within the same family instead of everyone wearing the exact same color.
- Avoid busy patterns or logos that can be distracting.
Stick to Classic & Timeless Outfits
- Solid colors and simple patterns work best.
- Avoid trendy or overly bright clothing that may look dated in a few years.
- Choose well-fitted clothing that flatters each person.
Consider the Background & Studio Setting
- If the background is white or light-colored, opt for deeper tones (navy, forest green, burgundy).
- For darker backgrounds, lighter or pastel tones can create contrast.
Layer & Texture Add Depth
- Sweaters, cardigans, or scarves add variety without looking cluttered.
- Soft fabrics like cotton, linen, or knits work well for a cozy and natural look.
Keep Shoes & Accessories Simple
- Neutral shoes that complement outfits.
- Minimal jewelry to keep the focus on faces.
- If kids are involved, avoid shoes with characters or flashing lights.
Grooming & Final Touches
- Make sure clothes are ironed and fit well.
- Hair should be neat but natural. Bring a brush for touch-ups.
- Keep makeup natural and soft unless you want a more polished look.
