Another Fashion Friday

If you haven't been looking carefully over the last few weeks you might not have realized there are some rules to planning clothing for family portraits. As a general rule, it's best to choose two colors for everyone to wear. And no one person in the group should wear one of those colors. Different shades of the same color palette are acceptable and encouraged. Notice in the image below, I've used shades of blue and brown and even though not all the colors match exactly they coordinate well.

Family

Last weekend I had the honor of photographing a family portrait for some business owners here in Nacogdoches. It was a very nice change of pace photographing a family with only grown children. I left the house with a nagging feeling that I'd forgotten something important. Then I realized, it was my bag full of colorful squeaky toys that are necessary to keep the attention of my littlest subjects. Aside from 100% humidity and saturated ground, Saturday was a beautiful morning for portraits!

Fashion Friday in July

Here we are in July! It's hard to believe we'll be celebrating Independence Day on Sunday! I've found are some light summer colors and clothes for those hot July portraits. Enjoy and have a fabulous weekend!
