What to Wear for Spring Family PicturesAs a professional photographer in Northern Virginia, “What to Wear” is a commonly asked questions when families are planning their family portrait session. I totally understand receiving these questions, because everyone wants to look their best, and styles and color trends are consistently changing. I share these posts as I want to make things easier for my clients. In addition to sharing these helpful tips, I also let my clients know, I’m willing to come to their home to help create a style/wardrobe for their family pictures. Here are a few tips to create a style you’ll love for your upcoming Spring portraits. 1. Pick two to three colors you love. When you’re picking your colors ensure you’re coordinating not matching. Include one neutral color and use a little color in everyone's outfit. 2. Accessories OK ladies…who doesn’t like accessories? This could be a great time to bring out your favorite scarf, earrings, or favorite pair of spring shoes. Little boys could even wear a cute boy tie. Just remember, don’t let the accessories overpower the photos. 3. Location Consider your family’s portrait location. Select a color palette that will compliment your surrounds. 4. Shoes Don't forget about the shoes. The choice of shoes can make or break your outfit. Consider coordinating your shoes with the other accessories and clothing for your overall photo. 5. Where will you display your portraits? Why are you having these portraits taken of your family? Will this portrait go on a canvas and hang in the living room of your home or will your child's portrait hang in their playroom? Coordinate your family's outfit to the area in your home where these portraits will be installed. 6. Stay Timeless Select clothing options that will remain timeless.
