WHAT TO WEAR TO FOR NEWBORN FAMILY PHOTOS.

  After scheduling a newborn photo session, the most frequently asked question from parents is “what to wear for newborn family photos.”  Below are some tips to help you feel and look fabulous for your photos!

MOMS, Simple is Best – WHAT TO WEAR NEWBORN FAMILY PHOTOS

First and foremost, moms should wear something that makes them feel beautiful and comfortable (after all.. you just had a little one!).  The best advice really is to keep it simple.

Tip #1: I always recommend starting with a neutral palette. Light-colored top in creams, light grays, and light pastels help in keeping the focus on your expression and the moment.

Tip #2: Wear a simple, solid-colored top or flowy dress is a beautiful option.  Pick a top with a long or 3/4 sleeve is a fabulous choice.

Tip #3:  Flowy and textured tops are flattering are there is movement in the fabric and adds a feminine touch.

Tip #4: Wear clothing that compliments your style and decor… more importantly, wear a top you feel relaxed in.

COORDINATE WITH MOM’S TOP – WHAT TO WEAR BABY FAMILY PHOTOS

The same rules for what to wear for newborn family photos apply to dads or partners.

Tip #5:  Solid-colored tops and long sleeve tops are preferred as they allow the pictures to focus on connection.  Avoid large logos.

Tip #6:  Wear a solid shirt that compliments mom’s top.  A subtle pattern on dad’s shirt can add interest.

Tip #7:  As an added bonus, dads can wear a light pink or blue top according to the baby’s gender.
