Styling your session

When it comes to styling your baby, toddler, or kiddo for their session, less really is more. We want your little one’s personality to shine—not be distracted by loud patterns or fussy outfits.

My editing style leans light and natural, so soft neutrals and simple textures photograph best. Think: cozy knits, soft cottons, linen, and timeless basics. Bonus points for adorable overalls—they're always a favorite!

I recommend kiddos wear neutral colors for my editing style, white, ivory, tan, taupe, etc. Clothing with texture such as knits, linen, lace, and waffle add beautiful dimension to the images. There will be NO outfit changes permitted as there is not enough time in the short session.

  • Whites, creams, oat, tan, soft browns, muted pastels

  • Textures like linen, waffle-knit, or gauze

  • Overalls, bubble rompers, bloomers, simple dresses

  • Neutral accessories: birthday crowns, soft bows, bonnets

  • Bare feet (yes please!)



  • Bright/neon colors (they cast on skin and distract from the face)

  • Large logos, characters, or trendy graphics

  • Stiff formal wear or anything uncomfortable

  • Loud prints or busy patterns
