comfort zone 101…

Filed under: fab families, what TO wear

… get out of it!

it’s the first question everyone asks.  
i give out some advice, and typically nobody takes it!
so i’m just going to assume that maybe you’re like me
and you need the visual version.
 
hold on tight…

here are some myths about what TO wear:
1.  everyone needs to wear the same color top & bottom.
2.  white photographs well.
3.  too much going on is distracting.

in fact, the opposite is true!
1.   matchy matchy is out… coordinating is in!
2.   layer, layer, and then layer some more!
3.   accessories and funky things make the look! 

if all of this is still too much to take in, here’s the easiest motto to go by:
let loose and let your kids dress themselves!

if you think it’s the ugliest thing you’ve ever seen,
i guarantee you i’ll love it… and who doesn’t want a happy photographer?!

anyways,  i love this family and we wanted to reflect the personalities of their vibrant kids and the fun they enjoy together.

we raided the closets and laid everything out on the bed….
and ta-da…. drum roll please…
you should have seen the look i got.  i wish i had a picture of IT!

it’s not easy steppin out of your comfort zone, but i guarantee you… it’ll be worth it.

oh, and one last thing…
when i say ‘just one more’…
you should know by now that i really mean 100 more
and i don’t want to hear excuses like “my eyes hurt”… got that andy?!!

     {clicking on a category takes you to all the posts for a specific type of shoot}

   for those of you who follow these rules -
   your session will be tagged into this limited & elite group of people who got it goin on!

whenever i hear that quote  - this  - is the family i think of.  
i just love how each of their unique personalities shine through.
