For parents
Neutrals and muted tones photograph beautifully: cream, oatmeal, soft gray, dusty rose, or sage. Avoid loud logos, neon, and thin stripes—they draw the eye away from faces.
For siblings
Coordinate, don’t match exactly. Think “same color family,” not identical outfits. Comfortable clothes help big brothers and sisters stay patient.
“We always say: dress like you’re meeting your baby for the first time on the cover of a gentle, modern magazine—not a costume party.”
Studio wardrobe and swaddles are available for baby; you only need to bring what makes you feel like yourself.
