Fall What To Wear : Michigan/Ohio Family Photographer

Well you've done it... you've decided to get fall family photos done. You've committed to it {it has been YEARS for some of you} you've gotten the hubs on board after much begging and pleading, you've promised all the grandparents that great photos are coming soon and you've found a great photographer ME. yippee. 

Now the HARDEST part; What To Wear? I totally realize dressing everyone for photos is the hardest part, it's the hardest part for me too when we do our annual family photos, I feel your pain. But fear not, I have come up with some great little story boards that are really going to help you conquer your photo wardrobe fear. 

Most importantly be YOU! If your family is a jeans type of family, rock the jeans. Wear clothing that makes you feel good. DON'T be matchy, matchy. Please, I beg you don't put everyone in the family in jeans and black shirts or khakis and white shirts. It's just bad.

Here is what I like to do when I am putting together my family's photo wardrobe. I pick 2 colors and make sure that everyone has one of the colors somewhere. Then I buy what I like, cuz if momma ain't happy ain't no one happy, and then build for everyone else. Think layers, think textures, think patterns, think awesome photos.  This year I am LOVING ME some brown and orange. Enjoy, now let's get those photos done.
