What to wear for family photos

NO STRESS WARDROBE COORDINATION!

Pulling together outfits for a photography session… You either:

A. LOVE IT!!

B. HATE IT.

C. GET EXCITED… ONLY TO FALL FLAT. (Because you’re just “meh” about your selections after way too much effort.) 

 

For my B. and C. clients… I so desperately want to help. (A. Clients… I have a feeling you’re going to LOVE THIS too!)

I understand what photographs well and provide all kinds of advice/tips/tricks before we shoot, but new in 2018 – because I want you all to look and feel your absolute best – I’m giving all of my clients something even better than advice. An added benefit, when choosing me as your family photographer, in the form of complimentary access to STYLE & SELECT!

Style & Select is outfit coordination, made easy!! Finally. In 3 easy steps, you can cross “what to wear” off your list.

  1. Fill out a questionnaire. (Provide the number of family members and their corresponding size/gender, the style that fits your family/session, and lastly 1-2 color schemes you want to see.)
  2. Make selections for each family member and view them side-by-side at the top of the results page.
  3. Shop direct from the provided links (from trusted stores like Target, Old Navy, Pinkblush, etc…) OR email the selections to me/yourself so that you can shop on your own or just use your selections as inspiration.

It’s just that easy.

Allow me to prove it… I styled 4 families in LESS THAN 10 minutes (varied kids ages/genders with different color schemes).
So Easy. And it was enjoyable. Check them out below!!

Needless to say, I’m crazy excited to offer this little perk, at no cost to the families I love so much.

Go… look your best. I’m excited to photograph you all looking amazingly coordinated… and so in love with your family!

Where your story is turned into something you can come back to. Photography for the life you’re living and the legacy you’re building.

Life moves faster than we expect. Seasons shift, kids grow, businesses evolve.

My role, on either side of the work, is to handle what gets in the way so you can stay present in your own life. Photography that documents what matters. Systems that protect the time and energy behind it.

You want images that reflect who you are, what you’ve built, and where you’re headed next.  That's the work.

Hi, I'm Melissa.

Maternity sessions, for me, are a celebration of your incredible journey, and the overflowing love you already feel for the little human you're about to meet.

The early days with your newborn are like nothing else. We’ll capture all the precious moments that make the sleepless nights and diaper changes all worth it.

Your family, senior, and portrait photographer in Pittsburgh, PA for every season.

Good stories are worth telling.

Documenting and celebrating, before that next big chapter begins. Senior sessions focus on natural and effortless 'posing' to create confident imagery!

Say goodbye to unnatural photoshoots. I use a child-led approach to guarantee a fun, stress-free experience. Roll with it and we'll make magic.

Your non-profit is making the world a better place, one event or community outing at a time. I'm here to document that so you can tell the world about the impact!

Approachability matters and everyone needs a solid headshot! Your small business or personal brand should have images that speak to what you have to offer.

I'm a mama!

The journey of motherhood is filled with fleeting moments waiting to be treasured. From tips on capturing your little ones' everyday joy to thoughtfully designed presets, my resources are crafted with love for every mama capturing every moment.
