What to wear - Spring | Murphy, NC Family Photographer

Knowing how to coordinate colors for a family portrait can be a bit daunting.  There are those old stand-by rules such as "no patterns" and "no bold prints".  Those rules have their place in a traditional portrait.  If you want a family picture that is very traditional in nature, then follow them.  One other rule for traditional portraiture?  No bright colors.

NOW, what if you want something different than traditional? You want something a little hip, funky and fashion forward - then these color suggestions are for you!  These are a few families I've photographed over the past year who really had their eye on color combos.  Enjoy!
