How to Choose Family Photo Shoot Outfits That Aren't Too "Matchy-Matchy"

If you're going for an eclectic but coordinated look, be sure you're not throwing it together at the last minute. Lay out outfit options on the floor or on your bed to see what works together visually (you might be surprised). Then, once you've settled on favorites, have your family members try them on in advance to make sure everything fits and — if you have a picky dresser, like me — feels good enough to wear for at least an hour or two. Also, don't forget accessories. Shoes, hair bows, cool tights, and even a purple popsicle can add a sense of playfulness to your photos.
