Family photos are more than just snapshots—they’re memories you’ll cherish for years to come. We know how important it is for families to look and feel their best during these special moments and also, how stressful it can be! That’s why we’ve partnered with Jeshalee, a local Connecticut photographer, to share three essential tips for capturing stunning family photos.
1. Coordinate Outfits for a Harmonious Look
Select outfits that harmonize in color and style without being overly coordinated. Neutral shades or matching patterns are great choices. Prioritize comfort for everyone, especially children.
At our boutique, we offer a range of coordinating outfits for mom, baby, and kids, making it easy to put together a polished yet comfortable look. Imagine mom in our elegant Long Sleeve V-Neck Tiered Dress in Midnight Plum, while baby and kids wear softer, complementary tones from brands like Noralee and Quincy Mae. Our collections make it simple to create a look that feels unified and stylish without compromising comfort.
2. Stay Relaxed While Posing
Kids are sensitive to your emotions; if you feel stressed, they might too. Maintain a playful and calm demeanor. Don’t stress about achieving perfection—genuine interactions between parents and children often result in the most memorable photos.
3. Prepare for Short Attention Spans
Young children may have limited patience, so I work efficiently and incorporate breaks. Allow me, the photographer to capture spontaneous moments during play or between posed shots. This keeps kids engaged and provides a variety of images.
