What to wear for spring family photos

We get asked quite often what should we wear for our spring photo session?! We’re here to help an offer some ideas for you. For spring family photos, especially if you’re aiming for a natural, timeless look, here are some tips to help you pull together outfits that photograph beautifully:


1. Choose a Color Palette

Stick to 3–4 coordinating colors (not all matching). For spring, consider:

• Neutrals: cream, beige, tan, soft white

• Soft tones: sage green, dusty blue, blush, muted peach

• Earthy accents: camel, warm brown, rust, mustard (used sparingly)

2. Mix Textures & Layers


Textures add depth in photos:

• Linen, cotton, denim, knit sweaters, or eyelet fabrics

• Layer with cardigans, vests, or lightweight jackets


3. Keep It Comfortable & Season-Appropriate

• Dresses or skirts for mom/daughters look lovely with flow or movement

• Rolled sleeves or layered shirts for dad/sons look relaxed but put-together

• Be mindful of temps—bring cardigans or wraps if it’s chilly


4. Add a Few Accessories

• Hats (for older kids/adults), hair bows, simple jewelry

• Avoid anything too trendy or logo-heavy


5. Shoes Matter

• Neutral-toned boots, sandals, or sneakers work well

• Skip bright, bulky shoes unless they match your vibe

• Mom: flowy cream maxi dress

• Dad: khaki pants + light chambray shirt
