Classy Christmas outfits

With Christmas just around the corner, you may be thinking about getting a great updated family portrait.  And what better time to do it! Christmas is such a beautiful season! My favorite look for Christmas is always classic reds, greens, and whites, yet it’s easy to go cheesy fast. How can you dress your family to not look like they are in an ugly Christmas sweater contest?

Upscale outfit inspiration for Christmas portraits

Here is some inspiration for outfits for your family session at Christmas time. These boys look totally chic, yet also classic and timeless at the same time. Take a look at the youngest. His deep red velvet jonjon is precious! Building off of that, the older boys have maroon tones in various shades in their outfits, complemented by navy. They have added a touch of formality to their outfits by wearing blazers, yes also keep things whimsical with the patterns on their shirts. And how handsome do they look!

Christmas tree farm photos in Tennessee

Our location for this particular session happened to be at a Christmas tree farm. There was already tons of green textures and tones in the background from the trees, so they avoided bringing any more green into their outfits in order to stand out from the trees. When Mom joins in, her white sweater acts as a perfect neutral to compliment the colors in her boys’ outfits. The result is a perfectly classic, holiday look, without being overly Christmas themed.

Perfect outfits for Christmas cards

With such great style, these photos will look amazing on a wide variety of Christmas cards, from a more traditional look to totally trendy designs.Are you still in need of Christmas portraits? I have a few dates left, email me now before it's too late!
