Getting Dressed up

You booked your photo session how what to wear? Here are some of my best tips and tricks on how you and your family can look their best at your session.

What to wear:

• Show your style with comfortable causal dressy pieces.
• Cool colors or warm colors, keep everyone in same color family.
• Keep over the top accessories to a minimum, a statement piece in a pop of color is great!
• Here are some great colors for this Spring/Summer. Rose Quartz is officially the color of the year and looks great on everyone and all ages!

•  Large patterns or stripes look great on children and always pop in images. Try to avoid smaller stripes and prints, they may show up fuzzy in the final product.
• Children: Think lots of texture and layers. For little girls ruffles, tulle, cardigan and jacket layers with leggings and appropriate head wear and accessories.

What NOT to wear:

• STOP don’t even think about white tops and denim bottom. Just NO
• Everyone in different crazy patterns. Keep it simple and cohesive. ‘
• Let the kids look like kids.
• Anything that makes you feel uncomfortable, no one wants to be tugging or messing with an outfit when they should be laughing and smiling!

If you have a specific feel or story you’d liked portray always let your photographer know ahead of time. I thoroughly enjoy helping clients to style themselves and their family. Don’t hesitate to ask for direction 🙂
