Frame Worthy Family Outfits (Bluebonnet Edition)

For Frame Worthy family portraits in the Texas bluebonnets, there are a few absolutely beautiful ways to go: Wearing complimentary colors, neutrals, and whites. Keep reading below and decide which color palette works best for your family and home décor (because you’ll want to frame these)…

Below are outfit groupings that will absolutely elevate your finished family photos. Each grouping comes with links (in the photo description) so you can purchase online (or look for something similar in your closet or even on Amazon).

Complimentary Colors (Inspiration #1)

Complimentary Colors are opposites on the color wheel, and therefore truly “pop” when paired together. Bluebonnets photograph as a very soft blue (leaning more blue violet), so the complimentary color for blue violet is a soft pale or acid yellow. (A nice example is the pale yellow shirt for the little boy’s outfit below.)

As you’re coordinating your outfits with your family, keep in mind that your outfits will look the most cohesive on camera when the color palette and wardrobe pieces coordinate, but don’t actually “match.” In fact, I recommend that you avoid thinking about “matching,” and instead think about what “fits” together. This will create more visual interest, and allow each personality to shine through.

Frame Worthy Family Outfits

When it comes to investing in a portrait session, keep this in mind: There’s no such thing as too dressed up!

When choosing colors for your outfits, I recommend selecting softer, lighter tones and more muted shades which will help bring all the attention to your faces and let the eye focus on the way you feel about each other. The camera loves shades of soft pink and muted blues, mixed with sophisticated light neutrals like heather gray, creams, leather brown and white. That softer color palette fits beautifully into almost all natural outdoor environments, and especially complements our native Texas landscape.

When it comes to investing in a portrait session, keep this in mind: There’s no such thing as too dressed up!

When choosing colors for your outfits, I recommend selecting softer, lighter tones and more muted shades. By avoiding ultra-bright, bold colors, it will help bring all the attention to your faces and let the eye focus on the way you feel about each other. The camera loves shades of soft pink and muted blues, mixed with sophisticated light neutrals like heather gray, creams, leather brown and white. That softer color palette fits beautifully into almost all natural outdoor environments, and especially complements the open fields in Texas!
