I understand that picking out outfits for your upcoming Maine family session is challenging. Honestly, this is probably the hardest part for most people. So I am trying to make it easy and show you so various options for Moms, Dads, kids and even grandmothers. This is the final post in a series. Recently I posted some dresses for mom , outfits for dad and one for little boys & little girl! I will continue to add more as I find them.
Today I am sharing some of ideas for a ‘Mature Woman’. I was thinking of my mother and grandmother when I saw these. But to be honest, I would wear all of them too at 40. So you don’t have to be older to wear these! I love how many of these are more casual and comfortable, but still look really nice and put together.
This year I have booked many extended family sessions. I couldn’t be more excited to photograph your family and include grandparents. What a special gift!
Because I am located so close to the coast of Maine I photograph many beach family sessions. I absolutely love these. I tell everyone to think about the colors you see at the beach and try to use those as inspiration. Choose 2-3 coordinating colors and go from there. Light colors such as white, cream, light blue, pink, soft green and yellow are fantastic choices.
Colors I try to avoid are Navy, black or very dark shades. Medium blue, middle gray and even a darker shade of yellow or tan can look fantastic as a accent color. Just make sure not to over do it.
Last, try to make sure you are not all in the same color. I tell my clients to try only putting 1 maybe 2 people in the same solid color or print. Then try coordinating the rest of the family.
I hope this helps and I can’t wait to see what you pick out for this summers family sessions!
