What to Wear for Family Photos | Do's and Don'ts | Shelbyville Indiana Family Photographer

Children Photography, Family Photography, Shelbyville Photographer



Wondering what to wear for your upcoming Family Portraits?  I have come up with a few Do's and Don'ts.  Wardrobe should be comfortable and reflect who you are. I do not recommend matching but rather coordinating.  Ready for more?  


Do's:
*Start with Moms favorite outfit
*Play off those colors for the family outfits
*Use different shades of those colors or coordination colors to play off each other's outfit, using 
  2-3 colors
*Use accessories such as jewelry, scarves, hats, jackets etc. to create layers
*Wear what is comfortable, you will be moving around
*Wear clothes that fit
*Dress for weather
*Dress for you family's style...Formal, Business Casual, Casual or informal
*Stay with Classic looks, combine solids and patterns

     
Don'ts:
*Avoid crazy colors, patterns
*Avoid wearing clothes that show brands or logos
*Avoid wearing anything with graphics
*Avoid wearing greens or browns if photos will be in a park setting, you will blend in with the grass 
  and trees
*Avoid wearing colors with Red, Orange or Black
*Avoid wearing matching clothes, coordinate with each other
*Avoid everyone wearing primary colors, pick 2-3 different coordinating colors
*Avoid everyone wearing solid colors, mix and match with prints     

See my Pinterest board for some What to Wear guides that can give you an idea of what I am talking about.  If you have any questions or would like my help in picking out your family's wardrobe  just let me know!  I'm available to help!

Baby Photography, Birth Photography, Newborn Photography, Shelbyville Indiana Wow is all I can say! Photographing Miss Josienne's home birth was amazing, emotional and rewarding. My first time photographing a home birth, I wasn't sure what to expect but it was an experience I will never forget. Mom was simply amazing, her strength was more than I could handle, I may have cried for her. She handled this birth better than I ever could or would have...as I needed all the drugs for pain in my deliveries. Not only did she have amazing support from her  awesome husband and daughter, but her Midwife  http://www.divinebirthmidwifery.com/ and Doula http://www.indybirthservices.com/  was there providing all the support and care mom and baby needed. The love of this family and strength of mom definitely shows these photos. Take a look and let me know what you think.  Stay tuned for the Fresh 48 session, I will be blogging that soon! All the Love, Gina PS.  I...

Senior Pictures in Batesville Indiana | Location Ideas at Ertel Cellars Winery | Lindsey

Class of 2024, Senior Photography, Batesville Indiana    William Henry Harrison High School  | Harrison Ohio Senior Photographer  Today I want to share Lindsey's Senior Photo Session.  She will graduate this spring from William Henry Harrison High School.   Since I live about 1 hour from Harrison Ohio, we decided to meet up at Ertel Cellars Winery in Batesville Indiana.  Lindsey was looking for a  country setting that had a barn, farm feel and flowers.  The session took place in September, so we were lucky to find few fall colors as well as a small field of yellow flowers.   The first location on Ertel's Winery property was an old barn.  Wow! An old, rugged barn was the perfect backdrop for Lindsey and her first outfit selection.  So far, we have checked off 1 of Lindsey's dream locations.     On to the next location...beside the barn was another old, rugged building.  Could not have been more...
