Late Summer 2022 FAMILY PHOTOGRAPHY SESSION OUTFIT INSPIRATION: Creams and Whites

August 23, 2022

Late Summer 2022 Outfit Inspiration

Keeping it simple with creams and whites helps tone down the hot weather by inviting a calm. When this color pallet is done well, it can be soft and beautiful. If you see anything you like, don’t wait too long. These may sell out quickly and aren’t updated since I release a new board each month.

Mama Dress
Floral Romper
Knit overalls
Linen overalls
Dad shirt
Textured shorts
Textured shirt
Embroidered dress

If you find these style boards helpful, you can see previous style guides here.

If you’re interested in booking me for your own family photography session in Tallahassee, I’d love to talk with you about my process and how I can help you prepare to make the most of it. I walk you through everything from selecting your location, considering the time of day that will be best for your family, tips on building your family’s outfits for your session, etc. Contact me here to learn more. I’d love to add you to my calendar.

250 years from now, someone in your family will find a photograph.

They won`t know about the chaos of this season — the packed schedules, the grocery runs, the ordinary Tuesdays. But they`ll see a face. Your child`s face. And they`ll know exactly who they were.

That`s what an heirloom portrait does.

This summer — the year America turns 250 — I`m creating Heirloom Portraits for a small number of families. Timeless, simple, and made to last generations. I`m even having them made of my own four
kids for exactly this reason.

Because this season of your child`s life deserves more than a photo on your phone.

July 12th. A few spots remain. Details in bio.

There`s a version of this summer that lives only in your memory.

The age your youngest is right now. The way your kids are with each other this particular year. The trip where everyone finally made it to the same place at the same time.

I`m not saying that to add pressure. I`m saying it because I think you already feel it, and sometimes it helps to hear someone else say it out loud.

These seasons are worth more than a blurry phone shot taken between sunscreen and dinner reservations.

If you`ve been sitting on the fence about booking a vacation session - or about Heirloom Portraits for your kids this summer - I want you to know that the planning is simpler than it probably feels right now.

Reach out. I`ll walk you through everything.

Our country turns 250 this year. I was in the middle of editing a gallery when that number actually stopped me.

I have four kids - 6, 11, 15, and 17. And I have spent years telling other families that childhood is fleeting, that these seasons pass before you`re ready, that photographs are one of the most meaningful ways you hold onto them.

I`ve said it hundreds of times.

And then I sat there and realized I needed to take my own advice.

So this summer, I`m photographing all four of my kids in what I`m calling Heirloom Portraits. Not elaborate. Not trendy. Just simple, timeless portraits that show exactly who they are right now, in the year America turned 250.

Because someday I want them to be able to show these to their own kids and say, `This is who I was that year.`

That thought made the decision easy.

I opened up a small number of spots for other families to do the same. Details are linked in my bio if this is something you`ve been quietly wanting.

A family vacation checklist as I understand it:

Pack sunscreen. Forget to pack enough sunscreen. Buy more sunscreen at the gas station.

Wrangle the toddler.

Realize the cousins haven`t all been in the same place since last summer and someone should really get some photos.

Spend three days saying `we should really get some photos.`

Go home. Look at seventeen slightly-blurry phone shots taken at dinner.

I`m not judging. I`m just saying there`s a better version of this story available to you, and it doesn`t require much more planning than you`re already doing.

A vacation session works exactly because everything is already set up. The people are there. The place is special. All you need is someone to actually capture it.
