Time to plan your holiday portrait! Coordination is key. Bring out your eyes and skin tones. Compliment you and your family. Wear what you love! If mom looks good, everyone looks good. Go with warm, neutral earthy tones, dark and deep saturations or simply classic. You can always add a pop of color with lipstick and shoes. Layers, textures, accessories all count Jeans for outside, dress pants in the studio. With GAP, Ralph Lauren, Banana Republic and Levi you never go wrong!
Think about a color theme and what best suites your style. Studio or location. Casual or sophisticated. As in paintings, colors are important. Classic: neutral base, but include a bold color. Thoughtful, pleasant expressions. Not trendy. Baroque: Clothing merges into background. Deep tones. Extravagant, ornate, intense. Faces center of interest. Rich, dramatic, elegant. Monochromatic: Closely related colors. Light and mid-tones of the same color. Simple, light, delicate but not boring. Examples: pink, red, maroon or grayscale. What says you best?
