My Top Tips For Creating a Timeless Look
Styling is an important aspect to family photos, but it is one that can create a lot of stress. I have come up with some tips that can help make it easier! When there are multiple kids and family members to coordinate- how do you make it look cohesive, without too “matchy”? Read on for my favorite tips!
-
I recommend that mom plans her outfit first, and from there create a color palette. It can be overwhelming when there are a lot of people to coordinate, so start small, and build from there.
-
Avoid busy prints, bright colors, and logos. You want photos to transcend time, not to be a reminder of long gone fashion trends! Keep things timeless and classic, to ensure your photos will look great in years to come.
-
Muted colors photograph best. Deep rich tones, or varying neutrals also are classically beautiful!
-
When using color, use 3-4 colors (at most) in your palette. This will ensure variety and and unique look, without all looking the same!
I share these tips and more in my welcome guide, once you book with me. I am always available for styling guidance, and encourage you to reach out with any questions. I want planning to be as smooth and stress free as possible!
