The Key to Gorgeous Family Photos? Clue: It’s All in the Styling

We’ve all been there: staring at our closets, wondering “What on earth am I gonna wear for the photoshoot? Will these colors clash? Do these patterns look too busy? What about the kids?”…and the list goes on. You get what I mean. Styling can feel overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be. That’s where my free styling guide comes in.

Let’s be honest…choosing what to wear for your family photos can be overwhelming, especially when you want those images to stand the test of time. You want to look back at these photos in 10, 20, or even 50 years and feel just as connected to them as you do now. That’s where my Ultimate Styling Guide for Timeless Family Photos comes in!

This guide is packed with practical tips (and outfit inspos!) to help you dress your family in a way that will not only look amazing but will also help you feel relaxed and confident in front of the camera. The best part? It’s completely free when you book a session with me!

Why Does Styling Matter for Family Photos?

Here’s the deal: your family photos aren’t just about the perfect smile or the perfect pose. They’re about capturing the love and connection between you all. The right outfit choices can elevate these moments, making them feel more cohesive and timeless, and the last thing you want is to look back and wonder, “What was I thinking wearing those?

With this guide, you’ll get access to my favorite tips for selecting flattering colors, styles, and textures that not only complement each other but also reflect your family’s personality. Whether you’re a jeans-and-tees family or love a little glam, the guide has you covered.

So…what’s inside the Ultimate Styling Guide?

What Colors to Choose

Understand how color palettes can set the tone and theme of your photos, from soft pastels to rich, deep hues. To make it easier for you to visualize, I’ve provided examples from my past photo sessions as well as outfit inspos for each color palette for you to choose from.

Textures & Layers

Remember mama, we’re aiming for coordinating, not matchy, outfits here. Learn how to play with textures like knit sweaters, flowing dresses, or tailored jackets for added depth and warmth in your photos. You’ll be shocked by how a simple knitted cardigan can elevate your look.

Outfit Pairing Tips

I’ll show you how to mix and match outfits for everyone in the family without it feeling too “matchy-matchy.” Whether you’re going for a more laidback, casual look or a luxurious, high-end glam, we’ve got lots of outfit inspos for you, and in different colors too!

Shoes and Accessories

Don’t overlook the power of the perfect accessory! I’ll help you choose shoes, hats, jewelry, and other details to complete your look without them looking tacky. Timeless pieces to complement your outfit are included in the styling guide.

How to Feel Confident

Styling is not just about the clothes, but it’s also about making sure everyone feels comfortable. I’ve made sure that these outfit inspos do not only make you, your partner, and/or your little ones feel beautiful, but also comfortable enough to move around and create dynamic poses.
