Look at Your Home Decor
Take inspiration from the colors around your home. You will be displaying these pictures in your home and you want it to go with the color scheme.
Accessorize
Accessories don't just add to your outfit they can add to the pictures as well. Having hats to hide behind, Necklaces for kids to play with, or a Man's Tie to grab can add to the playfulness in photos . It can be the difference between always posed photos to candid moments that capture who you are as a person, couple or family.

Limit Patterns
In photographs patterns naturally pull attention. If you have to many patterns it can take away from the image and steal focus from the main subject, YOU!
Plan Ahead!
As soon as you book your session you should start planning what you are going to wear. You may think clothes will fit your kids or that one dress is clean. If you wait till the day before you may run into an issue of clothes not fitting, being dirty or needing to be dry cleaned.
Say No To Characters
Your little one may love that Olaf or Elsa T-shirt , however just like patterns characters can take away from the over all look to your photos.
Avoid Mixing Darks & Lights
If You are wearing a white top and black bottoms, the white top will draw more light than the bottoms. It can make your body look unproportionate. When filling in your color scheme with neutrals stick with lighter colors or darker colors not a mix.
Textures Are Your Friend
Adding scarves or belts to a Plain shirt can add textures and accentuate your figure. It will also add a little more to your look and can make the over all photo more alluring.
Think Classic
These photos will be hanging in your home for years to come. Sticking with more classic clothing will help give your photos a timeless feel.
Cover Up
If you are wearing a tank top it will pull attention to your arms. Even if you are not self-conscious you may still not like a photo solely because of how much your arms are standing out. Too much skin can draw attention away from your face and can also make features look bigger than they really are.
When considering an outfit for your session, keep in mind that you want to look your best.
Try to choose a shirt that at least goes to your elbows, or bring a blazer, jacket or cardigan to go over something with shorter sleeves.
Also try to avoid wearing really short dresses or skirts, it is the same idea where the skin pulls to much attention. You want people to look at your face first, not your arms or legs.
Please remember these are just tips that I have learned to help better your photos, not a requirement!
We want you to have fun and be happy with the out come, so wear what you feel confident in!
