What to Wear for your Family Mini-Session

Family photoshoots and mini-sessions are a great way to capture you and your family at this moment in time; a way to treasure memories for a lifetime.

“What should we wear?” is always the first question my clients ask when scheduling their photoshoot. Planning your outfits is important to give a cohesive look to your family, but also, don’t stress out too much. Following a few simple suggestions below will help make you and your family shine!

Tips on what to wear to a family mini-session

Renauld Family Photo Session - Kerri Ann Garfield Photography

I had the pleasure of photographing the Renauld family in the park recently. I had photographed the boys when they were much younger, so it was fun to see them almost all grown up now. The park provided a beautiful backdrop for our session, adding a touch of nature to the family portraits. It was a wonderful experience seeing the family again, and I am grateful to have been a part of preserving these precious memories for them.

I love it when a sibling comes back from college, and we can get a family photo of everyone all together again! We headed to the park just as the leaves were starting to turn making for some nice background color. Enjoy these photos of this wonderful family.

As I finish up my 2022 Family mini sessions, I thought I would give a little shout-out to one of my families from last year - the Winscotts. A crisp, sunny Fall day is my favorite for walking through the woods!

As I prepare for my upcoming mini-sessions this weekend, I thought it would be a good time to share the Hoffman Family from their mini-session last year. The colors were so bright - I love it!

Kayla and Jenna, West Linn Portrait Photographer

These sweet sisters surprised their Mom with the gift of portraits for Mother’s Day. We headed out to the park on a rare sunny spring day and laughed and played in the grass. I love the dandelion flowers in their hair! The photo shoot was great fun, and I know their Mom appreciated their thoughtful gift and will treasure these photos for always. Nicely done, Kayla and Jenna, you made your Mom proud!

Court Family Photos, West Linn Family Photographer

I am blessed with wonderful neighbors who ask me take photos of their beautiful family. I can’t believe Anaya is already over a year old, here are some awesome photos from when she was just 3 months old. Baby Anaya and big brother Austin have the most adorable expressions and you can see the love in all their photos. Austin just got a big boy haircut too, he was so proud of his new hairstyle - and look how handsome! Wishing you all lots of love & laughter!
