WOMEN


Simple dresses, timeless pieces, flowy fabrics that are comfortable to wear ankle or full length so you can be in the moment instead of worrying about rearranging straps or skirts.


Linen pants / collared shirts look lovely soft pattern works (1 person limit) use the colours from your dress to match the rest of the family members (family members in solid colours)


Textures are great too like a texture patterned sweater


Shoes - sandals or flats

MEN


Plain chino pants/shorts

Linen shorts/collared shirts


Shoes - loafers or dressy sneakers


Please avoid wearing tight shirts, wear for comfort & the right fit

KIDS


Girls - pinafore style dresses are gorgeous, timeless pieces, simple designs, flowy, knee or full length


Boys - overalls, chino shorts/pants, white collared shirt or colonial style shirt. Linen is also lovely


Shoes - sandals, boots, leather sneakers


Please also secure hair so it stays out of faces, I love seeing eyes & smiles as much as possible

NEWBORN


Baby rompers


Shoes - barefoot or if it's winter time, some booties


Avoid tight outfits like jeans & chino pants or clothes that are too big, time will be lost rearranging the outfit instead of creating memories

C O L O U R | S C H E M E


Neutrals / earthy colours are best (3 to 4 colours)

Avoid logos, loud prints, graphics or matchy matchy (all in white tshirts & jeans) - coordinate colours so they compliment instead

Yes to accessories like hats, gorgeous straw brim hats or felt ones can add to the shoot

Hair + make up


Highly recommend Lisa Vassallo HMUA

Specialising in mobile hair & make up services for 20+ years.

She personally looked after me for my own newborn session in my own home, made me look & feel like a million dollars.

I also found that most HMUA only worked weekends, she was available during the week as well which was a blessing.

Spray tans


That sun-kissed look is something a lot of people want for their sessions.

Please make sure you have the spray tan done a few days beforehand so it has some time to settle, subtle tones are great.


I highly recommend Skin Haus by Tay, she matches your skin tone perfectly.

Based in Londonderry, please get in touch with her on Instagram
