What to wear for family photos
Dressing for your photoshoot is easy with this fail-proof formula.
Put most of the family in varying shades of a neutral color such as ivory, white, grey, pewter, navy, deep purple or classic black. Once the foundation is set, you can add a coordinating brighter color throughout (especially with accessories such as belts, shoes, scarves or ties!).

Tip: Start with Mom
If mom doesn’t like how she looks in the photos, no one will ever see them. So go ahead, moms you have our full permission to treat yourself to a new outfit! Choose something that you feel confident and comfortable in and then fill in the blanks for everyone else.
As you start filling in the blanks don’t match - complement!
The day of all white shirts and khakis or jeans are gone! We recommend colors that complement each other, so go for lights (light blue, gray, blush) or darks (navy, white, and ivory). If you want colorful looks, then select vivid color schemes like jewel tones!
Neutral tones can lend a more timeless look to your photos. Break up neutrals with a few accents like jewelry or a scarf.
For easy neutral styling choose three colors and go!
This family demonstrates how to use a variation of color and pattern without being too matchy matchy.
