What should I wear?

 

The simpler the better. Try to keep the number of different colours down to three or four. Colours should be similar, but not exactly matching on every family member.

 

Similar or complimentary colour tones and fabrics work well. For example, all the colours could be bright, or all subtle. If you have time and the inclination, lay all the clothes out on a bed, and see if anything stands out as not fitting in.

 

Colours that compliment your skin tones, hair and eye colour are fabulous; for example, a T-shirt with blue tones on a kid with bright blue eyes.

 

Try to avoid large logos, patterns or stripes on your clothing.

 

It will look better if you are in the same style – all dressy or all casual.

 

If you would like outfit changes for the kids during the photo shoot is fine.

 

Also if a child has any favourite toys, dolls, cars, blankies etc these can relax and put a child at ease making the photo session run smoother! They can also look great in photos and be a memory of the time.

Some extra ideas for girls can be hairclips, headbands, hats, tiara’s, wands, tutus etc

 

For boys, superhero outfits, cars, trains, hats, beanies
