As the days become longer and the weather becomes warmer in Montreal, it’s time to start thinking about spring photo sessions. Spring brings with it a renewed sense of life and energy, and the perfect opportunity to capture that energy in beautiful spring photos. In this blog post, we’ll discuss some tips and tricks how to plan the outfits for your perfect spring photo shoot. From choosing the clothes according to the location to selecting the right shoes, we’ll cover everything you need to know to prepare for the successful photo session in spring.
1. Clothing should match the location of your spring photo shoot
First, one of the keys to a perfect spring photo session is to choose the right clothing to match your chosen location. For instance, if you are having a photoshoot in Montreal city, you should opt for classic, timeless pieces. The examples: a classic dress, palazzo or other trousers, a blazer, a crisp white shirt. Alternatively, if you are having a spring photoshoot in a natural setting, you should choose more casual pieces, such as a flowy dress, or jeans and a t-shirt.
2. Choose the main colours for your spring photo session
It is also important to consider the colours of your clothing and how they will interact with the environment. Think of a colour palette for your clothes and the clothes of your family. We recommend you to stick to two-three coordinating colours that would look nice with each other. For example, you can choose two neutral colours and one colour that pops and brings life to pictures.
3. Opt for muted colours
Wearing muted colours is preferred for a spring photo shoot in Montreal. They can help to create a more natural and cohesive look. Whereas bright and bold colours can stand out too much and take away from the overall scene, muted colours can help to blend in with the scenery. Therefore, it can help create a more harmonious and balanced look in the photos.
4. Consider the textures and patterns of your clothing
Adding a variety of subtle patterns, such as geometric or floral prints, or dots, can help to add dimension to your spring photos. Additionally, textures such as lace, linen, and broidery can also be used to create a more interesting and dynamic look that corersponds well with spring photo session.
5. Dress for the weather
Spring weather in Montreal can be unpredictable and can change quickly, so make sure everyone is dressed for the weather. You don’t want to get the final spring photos with freezing family. Layering is a great way to ensure that everyone is comfortable regardless of the temperature. Additionally, for younger children, make sure to bring along a few extra sweaters or jackets in case it gets chilly.
6. Add some accessories
Accessories can be a great way to add an extra touch of personality. They can make your spring photos truly capture the essence of the season. Hats, scarves, bracelets, neckless, earrings and sunglasses will make your look more interesting and add depth to your portraits.
7. Don’t forget about shoes
Shoes are as important as clothing as they complete an outfit. As your apparel and accessories, the shoes should be appropriate to your spring photo session location. Avoid wearing white shoes, all athletic sneakers and cartoon characters and sparks on your kids shoes.
8. Try on the outfits before the photo session
Finally, make sure that all your family members try on their outfits before your spring photo shoot. Do not leave it to the last minute as outfit accidents do happen and you do not want to be left with wardrobe malfunction right before your long-awaited spring photo session.
