What to wear

 

Oh what ever should I wear?

We get this question… a lot at jelly bean, so we’ve put together this little cheat sheet to help you get the most out of your photo shoot.
For littlies, as we all know accidents can happen so have a range of outfits to choose from. Some ideas to consider:

One set of clothes should be plain (minimal patterns, neutral colours, blue jeans, plain t-shirts, no big logos or crazy patterns) because we’re not shooting a catalogue for Target, our focus is you.
Another set of clothes can be solid funky colours.
Coordinate if there is more than one person having their photo taken. Colour coordinate without matching one another too much.
Find a colour or two and use different shades on everyone.
You can also coordinate without everyone wearing exactly the same (like boys in pants & girls in dresses) If you can try not to overdo the colours you choose, trying have some people in the picture just have a slight colour pop.
How about traditional colours in a trendy fashion?
What about white or black with fun accessories or props?
If there are any props or favourite toys, bring them along – your little one will be more likely to relax with them close by & they make great attention grabbers!
For really, really little people (newborn babies) clothing can be a distraction, so plain outfits are best.
You can also add a bit of style using a hint of bright colours, fun shoes (colourful shoes, impractical shoes, boots) and accessories (hats, scarfs, belts, glasses). 

 

Just remember – be yourself

After all this, remember that pictures are meant to capture you and your family, so be you!

If you are a casual family, go casual. If you love style, go stylish!
Bring props that capture you, your family or your kids. (cute bikes, guitars, skate boards, fun skirts for girls).
