Are you looking for outfit inspiration for your family’s photos? I’ve got you covered. In my recent blog post, 5 Tips on What to Wear for Your Family Photoshoot, I share tips on how to style your family. I recommend reading that post, then come on back so you can find inspiration by yours truly.
Little History on Color Trends
Did you know that ever since the 1950s, designers from around the world have been forecasting trends for fashion, textile, and consumer lifestyle products? I know, crazy uh? Can I’ll let you in on a secret? I just recently discovered this while watching “The Devil Wears Prada”; which by the way is one of my favorite movies.
Well on my hunt for color trends, I came across Next Look’s website where I found the forecast of color trends for 2023. I used their color palettes to create four different outfit inspiration boards that cover all seasons. So whether you are booking a spring/summer or fall/winter photoshoot, you can find inspiration here on the Vanessa Kuns blog. You’re welcome 😉
Spring & Summer Inspiration
Using the color palette in the following inspiration board, I first started with Mom’s outfit. I selected this dress from Baltic Born and then built upon it with each family member. Pulling the colors from Mom’s dress and from the color palette to create a cohesive look. You’ll notice I followed the same process with each outfit inspiration board below. These beautiful blue tones are perfect for a beach or flower field location.
The second look for Spring/Summer includes neutral earth tones perfect for the wilderness, tall grass fields or mountain terrains.

Fall & Winter Inspiration
Honestly, these Fall/Winter outfit inspiration boards make me crave a pumpkin spice latte and a slice of apple pie. Alexa turn on the fake fireplace! LOL. Sorry back to the Fall & Winter inspiration here. These warm autumn and jewel tones can be used in any type of locations; hills, mountains, beach or wilderness.
