What should I wear to my session?
This is probably my most asked question! Choosing the right outfit for your session is so important! This is why I am providing 5 tips on how you and your family can coordinate your outfits and be prepared for your upcoming session!
1.The first thing I always tell my clients is, if you don’t feel comfortable in it don’t wear it! Make sure everyone’s clothes fit properly and are not requiring constant adjustment.
2.Avoid large prints and any large graphics or logos. Usually I’d suggest sticking to one or two patterns and have solid colors and textures for the rest which would also look amazing in photos.
3. Neutral, earthy colors such as beige, grey, white, black, denim, rust, mustard, blush, blue all look beautiful in the locations I generally shoot at!
4.Choose a colour theme that you like and coordinate with your family, You don’t necessarily have to match. Find outfits that will compliment each other but not blend into each other, Pick a couple of colors and choose clothes that will fit in this color scheme. Consider picking one outfit for your family photos that has a lot of colors or fun patterns, choose that outfit first. This will give you plenty of colors to choose from to pick your coordinating colors. If you are going to print your photos you should consider the colors in your home and wear colors that would go with your home decor.
5. As soon as you book your session, start thinking of what to wear for your family photos. If you wait until the week of your session or the day before you may run into an issue of clothes not fitting, being dirty or need to be dry cleaned.
