Coordinate, Don’t Match

Choose a color palette with 2-3 complementary colors and let each family member wear something that fits within that scheme. Avoid identical outfits for a more natural look.

Consider the Location

Think about where your session will take place. Earthy tones work well for outdoor settings, while brighter colors can pop in urban environments.

Prioritise Comfort

Make sure everyone’s clothing is comfortable and easy to move in. Uncomfortable outfits can lead to cranky moods—especially for little ones!

Add Texture and Layers

Textured fabrics, such as knits or linen, add depth to photos. Layers like cardigans, scarves, or jackets can also provide variety and make your images more visually interesting.

Avoid Loud Patterns and Logos

Stick to simple patterns or solid colors to keep the focus on your family, not your clothing. Avoid large logos or busy designs that can distract from the overall image.
