Style Guide
When working with more than one person, you will want to coordinate outfits
If you are scheduling the photos, you pick your outfit first!
Often the leader of the group (mom, wife, girlfriend, etc) is busy planning everyone else's outfit before their own. Plan your outfit first and then coordinate everyone else's to yours. If you are scheduling the photos, you should feel the most confident!
Coordinate with the location/vibe
Based on where you are shooting and the time of the year, certain outfit choices may be better than others. For example, shooting in the fall with the leaves will look different than shooting in the spring with the flowers. Color and layer options will vary.
Most important- pick a color palette!
When looking at your color palette, you want to stick to three- four colors and limit to one- two patterns. For example, you don't want a family matching exactly or wearing all different colors with stripes, polka dots, flannel, etc. Use the one pattern to tie the rest of the colors together.
