What did you decide on? Some great ideas here.

Make sure no colours are clashing and there isn’t too many patterns on clothes.

Some photos look affective with u all in jeans n white tops!

How did it go Lots of tips

Usually the photographer will tell you what you should wear depending on their shots. often it is all in white

It’s nice if you all match. Jeans and white shirts would look fab. Lighter colours for the beach.

Nothing that will date if its going to be kept for a while!

basic/ casual and matching is the best to go for for family beach pics

For a beach shoot…do not go in party wear please. Go in swim wear….neutral colours, hat and flip flops…take a tube as well

I think a lovely casual/classy look in neutral colours is the way to go, nothing to fanciful that when you look back on you might cringe, but then again they can be great to relive in later years and have a chuckle

is your wanting black and white photos, black tops and jeans always work well, or white tops.

Shorts and button down tops ??

or for something really fun.
All dress up as super heros. The kids would love it.

I like the simple look my kiddies myself and hubby in jeans and a white top.
No shoes . Causal but looks great

If its a beach shoot use bright airy colours, like yellows, oranges and blues. I would suggest may you and hubby wear maybe one colour and the kids another colour. We did that with one of our shoots and it looked fantastic. In another shoot, our colours were red and brown, so all of us had brown bottoms and the adults used a beige colour.

we wore blue jeans and white tops, the photos came out brilliant!

I think coordinating colours looks nice. Styles can be individual but try to choose colours that look nice together and perhaps won’t date too quickly.

I dont think it matters too much. Obviously you dont want colours that clash too much but otherwise wear whatever you think best suits you.

Would love to hear what you ended up doing. We went for whites and blacks for my husband and I, and the kids wore similar outfits.

We colour co-ordinated our outfits. I started with choosing our smallest childs clothes and then picked plain colours out of his outfit and dressed everyone else in these colours. Don’t use too many clashing patterns though
