Family Photo Ideas

Hello y’all! If you’ve been following along for any length of time you know I’m obsessed with the holidays AND family! I thought it would be fun to show you how I select outfits for our Christmas photos each year. Here are a few family photo ideas and tips!

TIP 1 : BLEND, BUT DON’T MATCH

This pic is from last year and it definitely one of my favorites. We added a bit of color but not too much. I like for our photos to be able to be displayed in our home and since the house pretty neutral I make sure there is not too much color.

TIP #2 : SUBTLY MIX PATTERNS AND TEXTURES

We got super dressed up for these pics because we decided to kill two birds with one stone and have family pics taken before my husband’s company party. It worked out perfectly!

TIP #3 : ALLOW EACH PERSON TO HAVE A STATEMENT PIECE

Sometimes the girls will outshine the boys because they get to have fun accessories. Well, the boys can too! A cute tie, hat, or suspenders keep them in the game as well. I have to admit I miss these babies SO much!

TIP #4 : MAKE SURE EVERYONE IS COMFORTABLE

Sometimes being comfortable means sitting down! I remember for these pics our kiddos were running around like crazy until we put them on our laps. They loved taking pics that way, they felt more secure being with mommy and daddy.

TIP #5 : HAVE FUN

Natural smiles are always the best smiles, so have fun!

I save a copy (or 3) of our Christmas card each year and I hang them all together each Christmas. It is so fun to look back and see how everyone has changed and grown. I will continue this tradition as long as possible!

Do you do Christmas pictures every year? I’d love to hear any fun traditions!

Have a great week y’all!

A few months ago I decided to use this *crazy* yea A few months ago I decided to use this *crazy* year to focus on my family and reassess where my time and energy is spent. Y’all, I’m so glad I did! I’m learning to stop stressing about all of the things we can’t do (due to Covid) and focus on what we can do! One thing we can do is help others. Our family decided to become a licensed foster family (again)! We could get a call for a child any day! The thought of a child needing to be placed with us is terribly sad, but we are praying to be a soft place to land. How have y’all used 2020 to learn and refocus? I’d love to hear! ❤️

Welp. Here it is. The only clean room in our house Welp. Here it is. The only clean room in our house! And that’s because I don’t let my kids use this bathroom!! 🤣 Our kiddos still have 3 weeks before school starts and hopefully we will get back into some kind of routine before this mama loses it! I love them but we need structure 🖤 How are y’all hanging in? I know lots of y’all have already started school! http://liketk.it/2UH6z #liketkit #LTKhome @liketoknow.it @liketoknow.it.home Shop your screenshot of this pic with the LIKEtoKNOW.it shopping app

The look I give when people tell me I have to know The look I give when people tell me I have to know by Friday if my kiddos will go to school in person or virtually! 🤷🏻‍♀️ Y’all we are in CRAZY times, but let’s not act crazy! I’m a firm believer that mamas do what’s best for THEIR children! There’s no right and no wrong!
