Fall {Autumn} Family Pictures Outfit Ideas

As a photographer, Fall is my busiest season. This is when families get their yearly pictures, just in time to use in their Christmas Cards. Now the question is… what should we wear!? Here are some tips I always give my clients.

1. No distracting patterns. No large wording or logo’s on shirts. Solid colors matched with a pop of color.
2. NO matchy matchy! Dress everyone differently, but with coordinating colors.
3. Mom’s, use more natural makeup. Not too dark. Not out of the ordinary. We want you to look like YOU! 🙂
4. Bring chapstick for the boys, and lip gloss for the girls.
5. Make sure the shoes are coordinating too. Yes, we will see them in many pictures, and NO I can not edit them to be a different color. Ha Ha!
6. Layer your clothing. Jackets, scarves, jewelry etc.
7. Have fun! If you don’t have $ to spend on new outfits for everyone, you can always ask that neighbor who dresses her kids to the 9’s if you can borrow some clothes from her 😉

I scoured the internet for ideas for my own family, and here is what I came up with…

Red’s blues cream and brown, who’d of thought!?~
