What to Wear
We often get asked by clients what they should wear to their family photo session. Coordinating your outfits can feel like a big task, but it doesn’t have to be! Here are some tips to help you.
Plan your outfits in advance. Planning them the day or week before can help alleviate stress on the actual picture day. Laying each outfit out together (on a bed or on the floor) will help you see the whole vision.
Choose coordinating colours, not matching ones. Choosing a color theme, or two main colors and then adding complementing softer tones to accent, will help pull the look together. Accessories are a great way to tie outfits together and can help complete the look. (For example, if mom is wearing a yellow jacket, the child could wear a yellow scarf or headband.)
Plan for the weather. If you are taking photos in shoulder seasons, plan for layers that can easily be added or removed if the weather is too hot or too cool. It is hard to take great photos if you are uncomfortably hot or cold.
Consider your home colors or decor. If you are planning on displaying these images in your home, use colors or hues that are already present, or that complement the ones that are there. If you intend to hang your photos in a colorful space, choose colors that compliment and are bright. If your home is mostly neutral or white, choose soft colors or shades.
Pay attention to details. Think about all aspects of the outfits and also pay attention to footwear. Consider how the outfits look and move in all different poses and from different angles.
Avoid distractions. Large logos, distracting patterns, neon colors, and formal clothes (that don’t match the surroundings) can deter from the unity of the photos. Seasonal accessories may make it hard to display your photos in your home all year round.
Most of all, let your family’s personality shine through - and have fun! The love, joy, and smiles on your family’s faces are the most important part of great family photos.
