When it comes to photo shoots, one of the most common questions I’m asked is what your baby should wear. I always recommend keeping outfits simple and comfortable. Soft, plain clothing in neutral or pastel shades works well on camera and helps keep the focus on your baby rather than bold prints or logos. If more than one family member will be in the pictures, it can work well to coordinate colours or tones, but there’s no need to match exactly unless you’d like to. Gentle textures like knits or little rompers can add lovely detail without being distracting, and some parents prefer to keep things very minimal, even just a nappy, while others enjoy a couple of outfit changes. If your session is for a newborn, there’s no need to worry about clothing at all. I have wraps and blankets here in the studio that photograph well. For slightly older babies, two or three outfit changes are plenty, and I also have a small selection of simple outfits at the studio you’re welcome to borrow. 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 remember that bare feet and tiny toes always look lovely in pictures. If you’d like to add accessories, a simple headband or hat can work, but less is often more. I’m always happy to advise if you’re unsure.
