STYLE GUIDE
FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY SESSION
Let’s style your session.
What to wear to your Family Photography Session
Stay Neutral
-
Neutral colors are classic. The style of your photographs will be timeless. Look for light, white or earthy tones. If you’d like a splash of color, opt for subtle cool or warm colors, depending on your preference. Avoid bright & bold fabric so your faces & emotion stand out most.
Think Solid
-
Solid fabrics are stunning in photographs. Avoid loud prints & patterns. Avoid logos, printed images or lettering. Even a simple pattern can distract from the main focus of your images - the love of you & your family. Simple is best.
Style Feet
-
We style from head to toe. And what we wear on our feet matters. Bare feet or stylish footwear is best. Avoid athletic sneakers, socks & sandals, or well worn shoes. Focus on neutral, new or trendy. This helps to not distract from our main focus: your family’s faces & the emotion you share.
Mix & Match
-
We love to see a mix of neutral colors & types of clothes spread across a family. Avoid everyone wearing the same color tops or bottoms. Instead, pick a few shades of the same color family, pick some pants & dresses, and mix & match them across your family.
Dress Comfortably
Hands down, our favorite styling recommendation is for your family to dress in ways that make you feel good. Dress so the children in your family can jump & explore & run & snuggle. Dress so you can be as much a part of the play as part of the hugs and kisses. Your family may sit on the earth, in a field, on the sand or on a big rock. Be ready for your beauty to shine through the love you share with your family, even if it means there’s some mess. Your photography shows your beautiful family living the good life!
