What to Wear-Spring 2012 {Sacramento Family Photographer}

Spring is coming! I’ve had a bunch of inquiries regarding what to wear for upcoming family sessions so I thought I’d put together a little post with some ideas. When deciding what to wear for sessions with multiple people, the ideal goal is to compliment each other with coordinating color palettes. Try to stay away from “matchy matchy” and “all white or all black” as everybody will blend together and will detract from individual personalities. Neon or very bright colors do not photograph well either and surely take away from the subject matter as they can easily overwhelm and draw the eye to the clothing instead of the person or people being photographed. A wonderful link for researching color palettes can be found here. This next link is generally used for wedding planning but has amazing color combination ideas as well. Check out The Perfect Palette for a million ideas. And because there is no way on Earth I could blog a post about clothing choices without pictures, here are a few samples to help you get started. Happy shopping and color coordinating!
