WHAT TO WEAR FOR YOUR PHOTOSHOOT?
Style Guide
This is just a friendly guide to help if you’re unsure about what to wear. The goal is for you and your family to feel relaxed, have fun, and truly enjoy the experience—so remember, there are no strict rules here!

1. Wear What Feels Good
First and foremost, pick outfits you love and feel comfortable in. Avoid anything too tight or clothing you’re not used to. For shoes, I recommend comfortable ones—heels or overly formal shoes might make it harder to relax and enjoy.
2. Choose Light and Neutral Tones
For the photos, light-colored clothing like whites, beiges, and soft pastels are great choices. These tones complement Paris’s beautiful settings and ensure a timeless, elegant look.
3. Coordinate, Don’t Match
For group photos, instead of everyone wearing the same color, try coordinating outfits. Pick a color palette or tones that go well together. If one person wears a pattern, the others can wear solid colors to balance it out.
4. Avoid Logos, Neon, and Flashy Colors
Logos, neon, orange, or yellow clothing can create unwanted reflections on your skin and detract from the photos. Stick with simple, timeless choices for the best results.
5. Make Sure It Fits!
For kids, especially newborns, choose outfits that fit well. It’s better to avoid overly baggy clothing. Comfort is key, so a cute onesie will do the trick without needing extra accessories.
6. Layer Up for Colder Weather
In Paris, especially in the fall and winter, it can get chilly! Be prepared with layers. Cozy sweaters, jackets, and scarves can add texture and warmth, and we can remove a few layers during the shoot if it gets warmer.
What to wear for your photoshoot?
for your maternity photo session
Outdoor Sessions:
For outdoor sessions, long flowy dresses are a beautiful choice—they create movement and look stunning in natural light. Prioritize soft, light tones like pastels, whites, or subtle patterns to create a serene and timeless look.
If the weather is cooler, opt for solid-colored pants, like blue jeans or neutral tones such as black or beige. Pair these with a fitted top and layer with an open jacket or cardigan to stay warm and stylish. Layers can add dimension and allow for flexibility depending on the temperature.
Indoor Sessions:
For indoor maternity sessions, you can choose up to two outfits to create variety in your photos. Here are some ideas:
-
Covered Belly: A fitted dress or a pair of pants with a snug top can elegantly highlight your belly without being too revealing. Soft fabrics and neutral tones are ideal for creating a cozy, intimate feel.
-
Bare Belly: If you’re comfortable showing off your belly, a set of underwear paired with a kimono, open shirt, or sweater draped over your shoulders can create a soft, delicate look. You can also opt for fitted pants with a lingerie-style top for a chic, minimal vibe.
Feel free to mix and match these styles depending on what makes you feel confident and comfortable.
Ultimately, the most important thing is that your photos reflect you. If you ever need help deciding or want feedback on your outfit choices, feel free to send me photos—I’m happy to help!
