for everyone and every season
The first question I receive after sessions are booked is from a stressed out momma wondering what to wear and how to put it all together! The style guide below will help you find quality pieces to make planning your session a breeze.

men
Men can’t go wrong with a blazer and dress pants for a more dressed up look. For a more casual look, consider khaki's with a button up shirt. Cozy sweaters layered over button ups are a great way to stay warm and stylish during the cooler months.

don't forget girls SHOES
Soft, solid pastel colors photograph amazing. The soft bright color can reflect on your skin which makes all skin tones look amazing.
choose soft colors
Floor length dresses are always flattering. I do not recommend dresses that go to your ankle or knees because your bump ends up making the dress short in the front and long in the back.
long dresses are always flattering
Choose a color palette of 2-3 soft colors. When picking outfits I recommend keeping in mind the word “complement” rather than “match.”
COLOR PALLETE
Rompers work well for babies so that we are never worried about diapers showing. Don't forget kids shoes or bloomers.
NO DIAPERS SHOWING
Once you have a dress that you love and is flattering, plan everyone else based on your choice!
START WITH MOMMA
Is it busy, like an open field with a lot of texture? If so, solids are going to be your best choice.
THINK ABOUT THE BACKGROUND

I think it’s so important that you look and feel your best for your photos. I also think it's important to look back and love the person you see in the portraits. I'd never want you to look back and see a woman full of makeup if you never wear makeup. Whatever you decide, be true to yourself.
HAIR AND MAKEUP
Statement jewelry is a great way to add color or pattern to a simple dress. Lace and tulle look amazing in photographs.
ACCESSORIZE
For shoes, wear what is comfortable since the shoes aren't likely to show unless your dress has a split.
