We just had our own family portraits done this Spring & I have to say the most fun for me was shopping for what we all would wear. I hope it's obvious from above that doing "matchy matchy" is not the best way to go. Unless you are going for - we are a super silly & fun family! If that's the case, rock it! It's easier to go for similar colors that compliment each other or have the same vibe. For example, we live in a century home & for the L's I found these darling antique beige, lace dresses, a beige dress with an asymmetrical ruffle & my boys were in different styles of a white button down & beige shorts. I've had a family use a main color of red, but each person had a different style of outfit. One had a dress, others had jeans, one had a button down, others had polos. And most importantly make sure it is something that each family member likes & will be comfortable while wearing. When you are comfy it is reflected in your photos. I can remember hating swim lessons as a kid simply because I thought my swimsuit was ugly. Ugh!! I can still see it. Navy blue with a red belt that had a single, navy blue button right in the middle. Eeeek! I hope the pictured examples help. You can always click on them to see them larger. Have a fun & safe Labor Day weekend! {{Hugs!!}}
