✨ General Style Tips

• Earthy & Neutral Tones: Think creams, taupes, browns, terracotta, sage, olive, dusty blues, soft blush, mustard. These photograph beautifully and keep the focus on you, not your clothes.
• Textures Over Patterns: Linen, knits, denim, lace, corduroy, and cotton add depth and richness. Avoid large logos, neon colors, or overly busy prints.
• Movement-Friendly Fabrics: Flowy dresses, skirts, and layers create natural motion in your photos.
• Shoes Matter: Neutral shoes (brown leather, boots, sandals) blend well. Avoid bright sneakers unless it’s intentional.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Coordinating Families

• Choose a Color Palette, Not Matching Outfits
• Pick 2–3 main tones (e.g., cream + sage + warm brown) and let each person wear different variations.
• Example: Mom in a flowy cream dress, Dad in a sage button-up and khakis, kids in soft beige/olive accents.
• Balance Solids & Subtle Patterns
• If one person wears a pattern (like a floral dress), keep everyone else in solid, complementary colors.
• Avoid everyone wearing plaid, stripes, or identical outfits.
• Layering is Your Friend
• Cardigans, jackets, hats, scarves add personality and can be removed for variety.
• Kids look extra sweet in overalls, chunky sweaters, or little accessories (like bow ties, hair bows, or bonnets).

👗 For Women

• Maxi or midi dresses with movement look gorgeous.
• Soft sweaters with skirts or jeans work beautifully for cozy vibes.
• Avoid stiff, structured business wear unless it fits your brand.
• Flowy sleeves, long cardigans, and layered jewelry add subtle details.

👕 For Men

• Neutral button-ups, henley's, or textured sweaters photograph best.
• Chinos or jeans in darker neutrals (no overly distressed or bright shades).
• Consider rolled sleeves, layered with a vest/jacket for depth.

👶 For Kids

• Keep them comfy — avoid anything itchy or restricting.
• Neutral rompers, knit sweaters, linen overalls, or soft dresses always look timeless.
• Barefoot or simple neutral shoes are great for little ones.

❌ Things to Avoid

• Neon or overly bright colors (they reflect onto skin).
• Big logos or text on clothing.
• Exact matching outfits (white shirts + jeans for everyone).
• Distracting accessories (giant bows, loud jewelry).

✅ Quick Checklist Before You Leave

• Clothes steamed or ironed.
• Backup outfit for kids (just in case).
• Coordinated but not matching.
• Layers and textures packed.
• Neutral shoes ready.
