Main Character Energy: Choosing The Perfect Look For Your Family Photoshoot

Moms are the heartbeat of the family, and are also probably the reason this photoshoot was scheduled in the first place. So let’s start with your look and build from there. Here are some looks to help you pick your perfect outfit.

Elegant Neutrals

Everyone in the family can dress in different shades of neutral colors like beige, taupe, and cream.
Choose elevated fabrics like cashmere or wool for sweaters and coats to add texture and sophistication.
Mom and daughter can accessorize with delicate gold jewelry, and dad and son can add a touch of leather in belts or shoes for a polished look.

Boho Vibes

Flowy boho dresses in autumn colors for mom and daughters, paired with ankle boots or sandals.
Dad and sons can wear linen shirts or chambray button-ups with khaki or olive pants and casual loafers or boat shoes.

Rustic Chic

The Rustic Chic Look:
Mom: A flowy midi dress in a deep rust color, paired with ankle boots and a wide-brimmed hat.
Dad: Dark-wash jeans, a crisp white shirt, a brown suede jacket, and leather boots.
Kids: A mix of denim and corduroy, with plaid or striped shirts layered under cozy knit sweaters. Finish with cute booties or sneakers.

Comfy & Cozy

Leather & Layers

Monochromatic Magic

Each family member can wear different shades of the chosen color to add depth and visual interest.
Mix and match textures to keep the monochromatic look exciting.
