Wardrobe matters more than you realize in your family portraits

As a family photographer who provides high-end wardrobe for clients, I understand the importance of selecting the right colors and styles to create stunning, cohesive family portraits. Here are a few color palette ideas for families to wear during a photoshoot:

1. Neutrals with a Pop of Color: I suggest neutral shades like ivory, beige, and light gray for an elegant and timeless appearance. Navy blue, forest green, or deep burgundy are good choices for adding a pop of color.

2. Cool Tones: Blues and greens are calming hues that look fantastic in outdoor spaces, especially at the field or Grapevine Lake.

3. Warm tones: Red, orange, and yellow hues work incredibly well for creating a special warmth to your family photos. 

4. Monochromatic: Dressing the entire family in one color can be a bold choice that creates a striking look. Try choosing a color that flatters everyone and varying the textures to create depth and interest in the photos.

5. Complementary Colors: For a vibrant, energetic look, go for complementary colors like blue & yellow. You can create a dynamic and eye-catching portrait by incorporating both colors into the family’s outfits.

These are just a few color palette ideas that clients can consider for photos. 

You can create beautiful, timeless images for your family’s photo shoot by selecting the right colors and styles.
