The number one question I get when clients book a session is ‘what should we wear?’ Today, I am sharing what clothing and colors pair well together. 

Mood Collage

Say yes to the dress! Dresses are really flattering and photograph very well. Long, full-length dresses bring beautiful movement to the photos and make it easy to move around. Click here to view my Pinterest board for more ideas. 

Choose a color palette

When putting together your outfits, I recommend selecting, lighter tones and more muted shades. Avoid ultra-bright and bold colors as we want our main focus to be on your eyes and faces. Softer color palettes fits beautifully in outdoor settings.
