Family photography sessions are the perfect time to get together, mingle and update your profile photos. We were fortunate to meet a few families during December 2023, who came together & captured their special moments.
Choosing outfits for your family can be a daunting task. Especially when combined with different age groups! The main thing to remember is to keep it simple. Choose outfits from your cupboard, keep to something classic and coordinated.
You cannot go wrong with selecting basic colours and textured clothing items, remember to consider the season and location when deciding. Focus on achieving a cohesive look and outfits that will give your photos a timeless feel.
Five tips to follow:
- Plan your outfits well in advance and consider the different options. More time = less stress! Plus, it never hurts to have options especially when you’re dressing your kids.
- Choose coordinating colours, not matching. Pick two main colours and add softer tones to complete your colour scheme.
- Keep the location in mind. Select a colour palette that will complement and not compete with the setting.
- Choose practical and comfortable outfits. Do not make difficult on yourself or your photographer to get the perfect shot. Comfortable outfits will ensure smiles all-round!
- Strong prints and abstract patterns can overpower your photo. Avoid t-shirts with logos that clash and decide on one pattern for your family photography session.
Hang each family member’s outfit together while planning. This way you get a good idea how the photos will turn out. This will allow you a better idea of what works and what does not.
