Bumps and Blooms

• Consider Neutral Anchors: Neutral tones like white, beige, tan, and gray are excellent anchors in your photo outfits, providing balance and allowing the brighter spring and summer colors to shine. Incorporate neutrals through base layers such as tops, bottoms, or outerwear, ensuring they complement the color palette without overpowering it.

​

• Add a Pop of Color: Don't shy away from incorporating a pop of brighter color to add depth and visual interest to your photos. Consider accentuating the neutral hues with a bold accessory or layering piece, such as a statement necklace, scarf, or cardigan in a vibrant coral, turquoise, or sunny yellow.

​

• Mind the Location: When selecting colors for your attire, consider the backdrop of your photoshoot location. If you're posing amidst a field of wildflowers or in a lush garden, opt for softer, muted tones that complement the surroundings.

​

• Don't Forget Texture: Texture adds dimension and visual interest to your family’s portraits, especially in outdoor settings where natural light plays a significant role. Mix and match fabrics with different textures, such as linen, cotton, lace, or chambray, to create depth and richness in your family's outfits without overpowering the chosen color scheme.

​

• Weather: Dress in layers so you can bundle or remove layers as needed to make sure everyone remains comfortable! Nobody is happy if they’re too hot or too cold.

​

• Things to avoid: Neon colors and big logos might distract from your portraits.
