Here's one maternity dress option for mom to try for the photoshoot:
​Kikibell Womens Maxi Dresses for Summer Open Back Dress for Women Boho Maternity Dress for Photoshoot Orange Red XL at Amazon Women’s Clothing store

3. Dad’s Outfit: Jeans or Khaki + Neutrals to complement mom’s look:

• Bottoms: medium or dark wash jeans, or khaki / beige chinos.
• Tops: cream, oatmeal, olive, chambray, or a soft plaid shirt. Keep it simple and avoid bold prints or logos.
• Accessories / layering: a knit vest, textured sweater, or a casual jacket in taupe or tan.
• Shoes: brown leather boots, desert boots, casual loafers.

4. Kids’ Outfits (Girl & Boy) Let’s keep the look sweet, cohesive, and not overdone.

• Girl: a cream or soft blush knit sweater + a muted floral skirt or skinny corduroy pants. Add a simple cardigan or tights if it’s cool.
• Boy: a knit romper, soft cable knit sweater suit, or a muted plaid shirt with beige pants.
• Baby: If your little one will need to be held for all the pictures, it is a good idea to look for one-piece items like a romper that won't ride up or get bunched
• Keep kids in solids or simple textures if mom’s dress is the print focus.

6. Tips for the Day of Session​

• Have a spare neutral layer (cream cardi or scarf) for color balancing.
• Try the outfits on ahead of time to be sure everything is a good fit.
• Dress children in layers (easy to remove if warm).
• Keep mom comfortable: avoid dresses that are too tight in the belly or that restrict sitting/posing.

This handsome little man came to the studio from Denton, Tx to get newborn photos done, even though he was a few weeks older than the usual. He did great, and we still got some sleepy pictures. And some cute ones with his little eyes open, too. Mom wanted a neutral palette, so we did tan, browns and whites. He brought a special teddy that was bigger than him! So, of course, we got a photo of him napping with Teddy too. He wore his own outfit from home for a casual cozy look.
If you aren't able to get your newborn photos done in the first 1-3 weeks, as recommended, it is still possible to get great portraits. Just know that we can't always do the curled up sleepy poses, or things like getting chin on hands. I have a few bigger props that we can use for an older baby. But, when possible, try to book early in the 3rd trimester to get on the schedule early! If you are in the Denton area and interested in bringing your baby to my home studio for newborn photography, please get in touch!  901-830-9813 Suzanne Barber Images, Denton Newborn Photography

I had the sweetest little visitor at Suzanne Barber Images recently — a beautiful baby girl we’ll call Baby J, and she absolutely stole the show. We had done maternity photos for this family at Adriatica in McKinney, TX. So, it was great to get to meet her finally!
Photographing newborns is always special, but Baby J’s session was especially smooth and serene. From her peaceful expressions to her delicate little features, everything came together beautifully.
She was a little older, since they had gotten sick before she could come in for photos. But, luckily, she was a good sleeper. We were able to get plenty of great shots in props and on the fur background. 

If you are interested in coming to visit the studio, please give me a call. 901-830-9813
