I loved helping my cute friend Jules style her family photos. 

I hope it helped make it a little less stressful...

I've mentioned my love for Navy and aqua.. Super stunning in these pics as well.

 I love how the neutral base, and subtle pops of color accentuate their faces.

Thursday Family Photo Tip

Texture:

I know I've talked a lot about color, and what to wear color wise. Today, I wanted to mention texture...I love to add a ruffle, a tweed jacket, a feather, lace, leather, metal, chunky scarf, or even a big beaded necklace... anything that isn't just plain cotton, and mix different textures. It helps make the photo pop, and not seem so one dimensional.

I love this family photo, the hat and the tweed jackets are fab...

 chunky cable tights, and RUFFLES with wool... so much texture it looks like you can grab it!

and love the feathered skirt, with the lace, and metal belt accent.. 

Thursday Family Photo Tip

I Love this family photo! The colors are so fresh and fun for Spring, and no one is wearing the same color!!

Tip:

Where to take pics...  The background is not the most important subject of your photo, so keep your location simple. I love how the background in the photo above is beautiful but blurred so you focus mainly on the family..
Many cities have beautiful parks and natural settings, but don’t forget about your backyard.  Other fun settings are fences, front porches, and even on your master bed – which might be a lot easier for your kiddos to just be at home! 

Thursday Family Photo Tip

Having family photos taken and not sure where to even begin?? Check out this great blog {Creature Comforts} They have an entire section of color stories that I think would be great when looking for ideas on what colors will blend well together in your family photo.  

Here are three of my favorites for Spring...

Thursday Family Photo Tip

Check back every Thursday for a new family photo tip or inspiration..

I love this family photo by Michelle Herrick. People are always trying to figure out what to wear in their family photos, and I love how this is styled. You don't look at it and think, "O they are all in Navy and yellow" or the classic white and tan, or all black. It's just a great family photo and you notice more of the kids personalities than what they are actually wearing.
  LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. Almost makes me want to have 5 kids.. Okay not really, I'll leave that up to my sisters who both have 5!!. Can't believe I'm about to be the mom of 1...2...3!


*Tip: wear things that you love, and not things that match or are even all in the same color family, and dress up a little, you are most likely paying money for this and you don't want it to look like you were all at a family BBQ and decided to snap a picture. Unless of course that was your inspiration.. :)

This is my gorgeous friend Brittany of {brittanygphotography.com} I helped style her families outfits for this photo. What I love most? The fact that no one actually matches but, the colors blend well together.
