WHAT TO WEAR FOR YOUR FAMILY & MATERNITY SESSION

One of the most common questions I get asked during the planning stages with my clients is "What should we wear?"

Advice on what to wear for your photoshoot has changed over the years. No longer are white shirts and jeans on everyone the style to go for.

I am more than happy to discuss your clothing choices, help you narrow down your choices or give you directions. I will also make sure your clothing coordinates with the location chosen for your session.

START WITH CHOOSING A COLOR PALETTE

Pick a palette of 3-4 colors. Let this be your starting place.

Think in terms of TONES: Blue tones, earth tones, neutrals, pastels, etc.

Everyone in the family can express their own sense of style within the chosen color palette and the whole group will coordinate beautifully.

DON'T MATCH-

COORDINATE!!

Now this doesn't mean everyone has to 100% match with khaki pants or jeans and a white shirt! You want to compliment each other's outfits by choosing colors that work well together. I find that if everyone is wearing the same clothing, people will all tend to blend in together and there won't be too much pop and life to the images.

Muted tones look beautiful together in a family picture. When picking patterns, choose smaller ones that won't pull attention away from the main subjects and only put ONE person in a pattern. When thinking about texture, choose different ones that will give photos some interest such as Lace, Corduoy, Denim & Knits.
