Planning family photos is exciting… until you have to decide what everyone should wear.


Don’t worry — I’ve got you covered. As a family photographer serving Destin, Crestview, Niceville, and Fort Walton Beach, I’ve photographed hundreds of families on the beach and in our beautiful local parks. The right outfits make a HUGE difference in how your photos look and feel.


Here’s exactly what works best 👇



1. Start with a Soft, Coordinated Color Palette (Not Matching Outfits)


Instead of everyone wearing the exact same white shirt and jeans, choose 3–4 coordinating colors and mix them throughout the family.
