The colours you wear on your Family Photoshoot during Autumn can make such a difference to your pictures.
Here are some autumn clothing tips for embracing the gorgeous countryside that we are lucky enough to have around us in Sussex.
As always, I’ll advise you to dress for the weather – we’re not going to get great pictures if your children are cold and miserable and are complaining of soggy feet. ‘Earthy’ colours work well – greens, blues (including denim), burgundy and browns. A ‘pop’ of mustard yellow, orange or even a little red could make a really big difference to your final pictures. When planning the shoot below I suggested the young girl wear a yellow cardigan – you can see how the colour brings out the background of the image and creates a lot more impact. I’ve pulled out all of the colours from the image and made a colour inspiration pallet for you too – see below!
Generally I’d say stick to plainer clothes and avoid too many patterns or logos. A little bit of pattern/check is fine but patterns can be distracting if the whole family are wearing them. If you are unsure, lay all of the outfits out on a bed and you’ll get an idea of what they will look like together.
Zara always has great clothes, especially for younger children – here are some I’ve pulled off their site for the Autumn season. Gillets & scarves are great for adding a bit of colour or texture and boots always looks fabulous too. I especially love the olive green dress below.
I’ve also created a Pinterest Board with some autumn colour ideas – head over to PINTEREST for more inspiration!
I hope this has been helpful, autumn really is such a wonderful time to have your family photoshoot! Head over to my family photography page for more infomation including pricing.
