Feeling Stuck on What to Wear?

Let me help

I’m so excited to work with you and capture this special season for your family 🤍
I know choosing outfits (and preparing for photos in general) can feel overwhelming—but don’t worry, I’ve got you. This guide is here to make everything feel simple and stress-free.

Colors

Color Palette

Soft, neutral tones always photograph best.

Think:

  • Creams, whites, ivory
  • Beige, tan, light brown
  • Soft pastels
  • Light earthy tones

These colors keep the focus on your connection and create a clean, timeless feel.


What to Avoid

Avoid logos, busy patterns, and perfectly matching outfits. It’s also best to steer clear of bright or neon colors, heavy dark tones, high-contrast combinations, and anything that feels too tight.


Textures that Work Beautifully

  • Soft textures (knits, linen, cotton)
  • Flowy fabrics and dresses
  • Layers (cardigans, sweaters)


How to Coordinate

Start with 1 Outfit


(Usually mom’s) Choose something you feel comfortable and confident in, then build everyone else’s outfits around it.


Choose 2–4 colors total


Stick to a soft, cohesive color palette (neutrals with a few complementary tones work beautifully)


Coordinate, don’t match


Outfits should complement each other without being identical—this keeps your photos feeling natural and timeless.


Mix textures instead of patterns


Incorporate pieces like knits, linen, or soft layers to add interest without overwhelming the image.

outfit ideas

For Mom

Flowy dresses, oversized sweaters, or soft, comfortable pieces photograph beautifully and move naturally.

For Dad

Neutral t-shirts, henleys, or casual button-downs paired with jeans or khakis

For Kids

Simple, comfortable outfits in soft tones. Avoid anything too stiff or fussy so they can move and cuddle naturally.
