With summer coming to an end and evenings getting cooler August is the perfect time to do family pictures.  If you do your family pictures in the fall every year I challenge you to mix things up and this year get your pictures done in the summer.   Take advantage of the how GORGEOUS green grass and trees look in pictures.

What to wear:

1) Pick a color tone and pick clothing from those tones. For example, bright summer colors, fall tones or grays and naturals, spring tones.

or... 

2) Pick your a favorite outfit and draw the rest of the colthing colors from it. 

3) Lay your clothing out on  neutral carpet, white bed spreed or better yet...green grass or fall leaves (depending on time of year) if it looks good then so will your family pictures!

4)  You have kids, your life (MIGHT) be a little crazy so shop online.  I love The Children's Place for that reason. They have clothing for every age range and Dad too and they have good sales.  You will look current without looking crazy trendy (feather hair extensions are the super trend right now)

and lastly don't stress.  I'm a strong believer that nervous energy will translate to your children and the pictures.
