I have some sessions coming up and I had some moms ask me for clothing suggestions for their little ones.  So I thought of putting something together for the sole purpose of sparking ideas:

Mind you, this is not my original idea, lots of photographers do it. I do have a list of suggestions here but sometimes it’s easier to actually see suggestions.

I like to suggest that you pick one or 2 colors and then coordinate tops and bottoms instead of trying to match everybody. This way there is cohesion but each child will also keep a sense of individuality; you want the emphasis to be on the subjects and not the outfits. Don’t be afraid of color splashes and fun patterns, we definitely don’t want boring. Of course, you don’t have to go and buy all new outfits; sometimes you already have a piece or two that you like and you can work around that.

This would probably work for most ages and most retailers nowadays have clothing pieces that coordinate, so coming up with an outfit isn’t as hard as it used to be.

If you have a specific color palette and age range and genders you would like to see featured, just send me an e-mail.
