6 Tips on what to wear in family photos
1. Co-ordinate your clothing for family photos
- Take the time to co-ordinate clothes, colours and styles for the whole family.
- Try to avoid traditional, cultural or regal outfits.
2. What colours work best in family photos
- Earthy tones, subtle colours, neutrals and monochromatic clothes work best for family photos.
- Avoid dark pinks, dark reds, dark oranges and too much white.
- A touch of colour is always nice, especially if you break it up with a bit of denim or jewellery.
3. What designs work best in family photos?
- Simple, plain clothing works best for family photos.
- Subtle patterns work well and also a touch colour.
- Try to avoid clothes with bold logos, big bold stripes and any busy patterns, as they’ll be too distracting.
- The main focus needs to be you, not the clothes your family is wearing.
4. What should babies & kids wear in family photos?
- Add a bit of fun to your family photos with beanies, pretty headbands, colourful leggings, tutus, dresses and baby bling.
- Keep it simple. Remember less is more!
- Avoid dungarees, pinafores, frills and double-layer clothing that might block your child’s face. They look cute, but do not work for photos.
- Denim always works very well as leggings or jeans, but don’t go for bulky denim tops.
- Subtle patterns are perfect with a splash of colour.
- If you baby is under 2 months old, it’s always good to take along a nice, plain stretchy wrap for your photos. A favourite teddy,or perhaps something special also works well in photos.
5. What should adults wear in family photos?
- Adults should try to cover up and avoid tank tops and strappy tops and dresses that might reveal underwear. A sleeved top is slimming.
6. Other tips for family photos
- Avoid haircuts for up to two weeks prior to your photo session.
- Don’t apply sun-block before your session as it will make your face appear too white.
- Check for clean faces, especially noses!
- Feed your littlies well before your session and bring treats for afterwards.
- Try not to put pressure on children to smile to help avoid those awkward smiles.
- Most importantly take your sense of humour and just have fun!
