A family photoshoot is coming up, you are excited to have fun with your loved ones but finding it challenging to pick outfits?

It's common to feel overwhelmed, especially when considering everyone's different preferences and styles. But I'm here to tell you that choosing outfits can be simpler than you think!


Let's talk about why clothing choices are crucial. The right attire can complement the photoshoot background, elevate the aesthetic of the scene and ensure a coordinated and stylish look for everyone involved. The end result? Elegant and beautiful family photos!


An important step in the process is understanding where the photoshoot will take place. Familiarizing yourself with the backdrop helps in selecting colors that harmonize with the environment. Here's a tip: start with your outfit, especially if you're pregnant—the focal point of the shoot—making it easier to coordinate with the rest of the family.

While it's essential to allow each family member's personality to be present, steer clear of clothing with prominent logos, graphics or distracting patterns that could draw attention away from other family members.


Choosing plain clothes in classic hues like beige, white or black ensures a timeless look that complements most backgrounds. If you’re drawn to more vibrant options, consider using different shades within the same color family for an elegant effect. For a creative mix of colors, consulting a wheel palette (click here) can help you discover harmonious combinations. Plus, accessories and layers not only brings texture to your outfits but also adds a special touch to your photos.


Searching for family photos references will also open your mind to different possibilities. The idea is to make this moment easier and enjoyable for you and everyone involved, while keeping in mind the aesthetic and mood that you want to achieve with the photos.
