Oconee County High School Senior Portraits In Charleston

Today is my daughter’s last home game of her high school career. It is bittersweet for sure. I remember when she decided to try out and the excitement of making both sideline and courtside squads. To see it coming to a close is very surreal. Don’t blink. It really goes by so fast. Very excited for her as she gets closer to starting her next chapter in this crazy journey of life.

This past Fall, we headed to Charleston to check out the College of Charleston and for my daughter’s senior portraits. Such an honor that she asked me to be her photographer for this big milestone!

Our hotel was close to all the locations she wanted for her senior portraits. We started with some images of her in her cheer uniform before she did an outfit and hair change.

We then headed to Rainbow Row for those beautiful colors that speak to my senior gal! In fact, she has some watercolor paintings of this street on her bedroom wall.

Our last location was The Battery. Perfect place for her green dress. Love that she chose Charleston for her senior portraits. The outfits she chose were very fitting. She tends to wear a lot of athletic wear, but when she dresses up, she opts for classy pieces that are flattering and stand the test of time.

What To Wear For Fall Family Pictures

The most common question I get every year is….

What to wear for Fall family pictures

This family’s portraits taken on their property in the mountains is a great example of what to wear for your own photography session this year. Below I explain why this wardrobe selection works and how you can get your outfits to work for you!

complimentary colors

A good place to start in choosing colors for your outfits is to choose a color palette that has colors that compliment one another, rather than too many of the same or similar colors. It’s also important to make sure colors don’t clash. Sage green, cream, rust, tan, brown and blue all work well together as shown in this family’s portraits. Notice how the youngest family members rust colored velvet bow, cream sweater and brown boots bring in colors from everyone else’s outfits. Great example of how to coordinate in a subtle way.

go neutral

I highly recommend choosing outfits that follow a more neutral color palette. Especially when your session is at location in nature, it’s great to have Earthy colors that compliment, yet pop against the backdrop. Neutral colors are also a great way to make sure your images are timeless and beautiful.

limit patterns and big logos

This tip is especially crucial when choosing outfits, as busy patterns and big logos can be extremely distracting and if there are too many outfits with patterns in your group, can clash. Incorporate mostly solids in your outfits, and include patterns only when the majority outfits are solids, and when patterns are not as distracting. All family members here are wearing solids, except for the youngest sibling whose dress has delicate leaf detailing that is perfectly subtle and pulls everything together.

start with mom’s outfit

Women’s clothing comes in a multitude of designs, colors, and styles, and most times, women are more particular with their clothing than men, so having this as a foundation for the other outfits makes it easier to choose a color palette and style for your outfits. Start with one outfit, and build on it one-by-one. I suggest starting with the hardest person to please and have everyone coordinate to that outfit.

confidence is key

The most important factor in choosing your outfits is to wear something that you feel comfortable and confident in. You’ll want to choose something that fits you well and makes you feel good about yourself!

Nothing like a sleeping baby! Sometimes when a little one is having problems falling (or staying asleep) a swaddle can be a wonderful tool. Gives little ones comfort and a reminder of being in the womb. It is why I do a lot of swaddled images during a newborn session. Plus it is just precious!

A common question I get regarding heirloom sessions is what is the best age for these type of portraits. 

Heirloom photography is a classic way to document your child between the ages of 1-10. Many families choose a specific age depending on when they had their own portraits done as a child or when they feel is most fitting to start the tradition themselves. 

The most popular age I see clients for their heirloom photography session is between three and four years old. This is the age range where the child can take some direction and is attentive. They still have those precious filled out faces and adorable child features that just don’t last. I have quite a few parents bring their one year old in for this timeless portraits as well.

Many families choose to do a few sessions at various ages to show the growth of their child and put together a composite photographic wall art piece.

Still cannot decide when the best age would be for your child/children? Send me a message and I am more than happy to help you out!

We sure have some pretty buildings around here. This is a noticeable landmark in Madison, GA on the square. Love walking around this historic town - exploring the shops, dining in their restaurants and enjoying some French pastries. Lots of local gems.
