Wear it Wednesdays {Family Portraits Gilbert AZ}

You’ve researched photographers and finally found one (hopefully me! wink, wink), picked an awesome location, and now it’s time to figure out what to wear.  I get asked this question a ton from clients so I decided to post some ideas on how to make sure you look your best for your session!

Tip #1  DO NOT ALL WEAR THE SAME COLOR

Coordinating is one thing, but wearing the exact same style of white button down shirt and khakis is well pretty boring in my opinion.  Pick a color pallette that everyone could work with.  I like to start with a colorful print dress, shirt, or sweater that the whole family can pull colors from to build their outfit around.  Don’t be afraid to use color and patterns.

Tip # 2 BE COMFORTABLE, BE YOURSELF

If you never wear heels and decide to “dress up” for your portraits, you will most likely be very uncomfortable and feel awkward during your shoot.  This is not the time to feel self-conscious because it will show in your portraits.  Who cares if your family doesn’t own any fancy clothes and the only shoes your husband has in his closet are flip flops.  Let everyone’s personalities shine and always be true to yourself.  Don’t forget to dress accordingly for the season and location as well.

Tip #3  LAYER, LAYER, LAYER

You might have a favorite shirt or dress that everyone has already seen you in.  Add a fun jacket or sweater with a chunky necklace to change things up.  It’s always easier to work with several clothing choices so don’t be afraid to bring some options to the shoot.  I’m sure your photographer will be more than happy to help you determine what would look best on camera.
