Mountain, Desert or the Beach? Living in California we are lucky to have it all. This stylish family photo session features a beautiful family, background, and coordinating outfits. Outfits can make or break a session, but this family had it all figured out. Mom did well pulling the whole session all together with outfit ideas. She had a variety of patterns, layers and textures which can make a family shoot really cool. I encourage clients to look at current trends for styles but to base their outfits off their personal style. The more layers the better these days, this includes scarves, vests, jackets, boot socks, hats and so much more. These photos are a great example of a styled session with lots of layers. The family’s outfits all compliment each other and the colors of Fall.
I offer styling and help as part of the family photo session when booked with Stevie Cruz Photography. There is so much that goes into planning holiday pictures (kids naps, older kids personalities, dad’s work schedule and so much more) we want to help take the stress off your plate with shopping for the perfect look. Our stylist will help with the clothing choices beginning with your own closet and/or making suggestions from online shops that will send packages right to your doorstep! In addition to styling, for you ladies, the studio offers a professional makeup and hair stylist that can help you achieve the vision you want.
Another beautiful part of this stylish family photo session is the location. These pictures were captured in Palm Desert just East of Orange County. I love how the natural glow and warmth of the setting sun against the mountains really reflects this family’s obvious love for each other, it is just absolutely stunning.
Family pictures look absolutely gorgeous on canvas in your home or in a coffee table album. Its hard for me to select just one or two images that would reflect this session in full, there are just too many great captures! Have you considered pictures as gifts for family as we approach this holiday season? Grandparents love pictures, I mean who doesn’t love pictures?
Kids grow up so fast, which is why I like to take frequent pictures of my little ones. We must document the things most important to us- and nothing is more important than the ones we hold in our hearts.
