Stick to solids. Patterns and graphics can take away from your smiling faces. Consider dressing the family in solid colors instead.

Matching in white lends to a cohesive and timeless look

Matching colors is a great idea. Putting everyone in the same color is a good way to make everything look cohesive. Shades of some colors can be difficult to match, so consider matching whites and blacks, or (sometimes better), choose a great accent color. Instead of washing everyone out with a bold color choose a bold color to use as an accent.

Lavender makes for a fun accent color for this well-dressed family!

Wearing patterns? Don't get too crazy! Buffalo plaid is always nice (in moderation), minimal floral accents are also beautiful.

Mom's pattern is BEAUTIFUL and not overwhelming. It's complicated nicely by dad and daughter's solid colors.

Look at this tasteful use of buffalo plaid, STUNNING!

Leave the hats, sunglasses at home. Don't get too crazy with accessories and things that cover your face. You want your faces to be the focal point of your portraits, these things can be distracting!

I'll always do everything I can to help you look your best. It helps when you do your part too! Planning outfits well in advance helps you to relax and take the pressure off the day of photos. You should enjoy your portrait session experience, and it will help you if you feel and look your best!
