We've compiled 5 do's and don'ts for your fall family photoshoot.

WEAR THIS:

  1. Coordinating colors
  2. Layer up with colors and patterns that pop*
  3. Textures like wool, knits, and corduroy add warmth to photos
  4. Mix it up with plaids and solids
  5. Utilize accessories: sweaters, belts, jewelry, socks, and hats

*beware of tiny prints, they may cause moire, or a distorted look in photos

NOT THAT:

  1. Matchy-matchy: remember the all denim in the 80’s?
  2. Big brand logos
  3. Neon colors—they create a color cast and do not print well
  4. Large patterns and distracting accessories
  5. Hats that shade or hide your eyes
