When it comes to photo shoots, one of the most common questions I’m asked is what should my baby wear?

I always recommend keeping baby outfits simple and comfortable. Soft, plain clothing in neutral or pastel shades works beautifully, as it keeps the focus on your baby rather than busy patterns or logos. Textures like knits or little rompers can add lovely detail without being distracting.

If your session is for a newborn, don’t worry too much about clothing at all – I have wraps and blankets here in the studio that photograph perfectly. For slightly older babies, two or three outfit changes are plenty. Think about bringing one classic outfit, something a little more fun or seasonal if you’d like, and maybe a favourite sleepsuit for relaxed shots.

Avoid clothes that bunch up or have big slogans, and keep in mind that bare feet and little toes always make for gorgeous pictures. If you’d like to add accessories, a simple headband or hat can work, but less is often more.
