Things To Consider
Keep accessories and jewelry simple, or skip it altogether.
Stick to solid, muted colors–earthy tones, muted gem tones, monochrome, beige, and taupe are great examples.
Low contrast outfits (if your shirt is pure white, go for lighter color bottom pieces.)
Flatter your figure–don’t wear clothes that are entirely too tight or loose, or clothes that accentuate your insecurities. Wear something you feel beautiful in.
Wear sleeves or quarter-sleeves if weather permits. In my experience, the women I photograph are most insecure about the way their arms appear. Covering your arms may take the focus away from them and flatter their shape at the same time.
Dress in long skirts, pants, or dresses. There is just something about a long flowy dress that photographs so beautifully, and you will have so much fun wearing one!
Wear your hair how you like it, but typically stay away from ponytails. Typically, the looser and more flexible the style, the better!
Coordinate your clothing–in group photos, try to keep everyone on the same page and color palette of 2-4 colors. The best tip I recommend for a place to start your family outfit planning is to pick one item of clothing with a few colors (like mom or daughter’s dress) and pull colors from that for everyone else to wear.
Dress like you go together.
Remember, you can ALWAYS take cell photos of your outfits on the floor together and send them to me. This way we can coordinate together to get your family the best results possible.
