Want to know what colours look good for a photoshoot in a lavender field?  Read on! 

Think through what you would like everyone to wear and plan in advance.

A great place to start when thinking through what to wear for your photo shoot, is to choose a theme.  So this could be smart, formal, casual or smart casual. 

Within this theme, it’s a great idea to choose a couple of hues to develop your colour scheme around.  Use your brightest choice of colour sparingly and blend in the rest of your clothing choices accordingly. 

Layers!

Layers are a great way to add visual interest; a jacket, a shawl or a thin scarf can be added or taken away to change up the images.

Colours & Patterns!

It’s best to stay away from big, busy patterns which draw attention.  However, gentle stripes, subtle spots or understated florals can look lovely.  Darker colours can be slimming, but as we’ll be in the lavender fields in the middle of summer , don’t go all goth on me!! 😊 

Accessories!

Don’t feel the need to leave accessories at home though!  Boy children look so cute in braces or a flat cap!  What little girl doesn’t love a floral headband!  Earrings, necklaces, hats are all welcome.  And if your child has a favourite (small, preferrably neutrally coloured) teddy – feel free to bring them along too!

Be comfortable

Arguably, the most important thing to remember is to wear what is comfortable and in which you feel at ease.

Little girls look lovely in a dress and boys scrub up nicely in a shirt – but if they aren’t comfortable on the day of your photo shoot they are unlikely to enjoy the experience and we want your pictures to reflect a happy time!
