One of the most common questions I receive is:“ Is there a certain color I should wear?” For photo sessions, muted colors are your best bet! In other words, colors that have a grey or beige undertone!
I suggest muted colors for all of my sessions, because they don’ t distract from my beautiful clients! Now, before you start thinking“ I don’ t like anything oatmeal color!” please do not worry!! The last thing I want is for you to look washed out for your session!
There several examples of muted colors in different shades below, and I encourage my clients to pick the one( s) that best accentuate & enhance their features! For example, if you have fair skin, fair hair, and blue eyes, beige might not be the best choice, but light or dark blue might work well. While ultimately the color you choose wear is up to you, I’ ve found that blues, grays, cream, lavender, and blush pink photograph best!
For newborn sessions I encourage my clients to wear softer, lighter colors as they photograph best in lower light conditions inside the home. Also, textures work great to create some visual interest in your images. Some common textures that work great when mixed and matched are cotton, lace, chiffon, chambray, woven sweaters, cableknit sweaters, etc.
