Your photos are gorgeous. Question: are colors going to read brighter or lighter on the beach? These pics are in my dark family room. I originally wanted to wear white pants with a blush colored top, but DH is convinced it will read brown and blend with the sand. I can put him in light stone khaki shorts, but don’t have much lighter for the girls without going to white. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861428 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 23:05:34 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 2861428@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Soft fabrics, soft tones and no overly matching outfits. :heart: </p> [attach=3657/18/pjk0pa.337x600.591FA7B0-63DC-4C02-B4E4-3EDFB1BB55F7.png] [attach=3657/18/pjk0pc.337x600.78E9BC30-EDC1-4B0F-95AD-D6E57BC11D0D.png] [attach=3657/18/pjk0pd.337x600.1A390B44-5E85-4CF2-A5C8-5F39F044FB19.png] [attach=3657/18/pjk0pe.337x600.693676DB-B0F7-4073-939E-8CD61072460B.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861427 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 23:03:25 +0000 PinkElephant 2861427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Toad: soooo while I have two coral dresses that could work (albeit they are a bit bright)...They have already been another family photo shoots. Oops! I guess we like coral! The best I could do on coral was the pop of color in that one shirt. Maybe ribbon sashes? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861426 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 23:00:38 +0000 Kaohinani 2861426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: 🤔 Given the new selections, the bottom two choices are my favorite now. I believe your choices look spectacular and have a carefree vibe while still looking very put together and cohesive. 👍😉😊 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861424 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 22:55:33 +0000 Mrsbells 2861424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like all 3 combos just posted </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861421 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 22:49:28 +0000 Mrs. Toad 2861421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think it looks good. I would put one of the two younger in a pink dress to coordinate with your pants. The other could be in one of the white dresses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861420 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 22:37:50 +0000 PinkElephant 2861420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: @Mrs. Champagne: @JennyPenny: @Mrsbells: @erinbaderin: @Kaohinani: better??! Googled a bit to see what works and went another direction. I’m struggling with my middle daughter a bit, but have a few things that what kind of work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861419 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 22:33:00 +0000 PinkElephant 2861419@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@peachykeen: omg adorable!! </p> <p>Sooo, realized DH has limited options and as a good amateur photographer has lots of opinions...so we are moving in a new direction. Here’s where we are now. </p> [attach=2883/18/pjjz70.600x450.DB32153A-277F-47C1-A1B9-E6CADD52F9DF.jpeg] [attach=2883/18/pjjz71.600x450.562F8E26-1AB7-4E38-8789-24080463011F.jpeg] [attach=2883/18/pjjz72.600x450.26589231-8134-4438-A4D0-1B49B045A8AB.jpeg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861399 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 19:58:09 +0000 peachykeen 2861399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: it looked pretty light but ours was a studio session (January) </p> [attach=5030/18/pjjs0y.600x400.stallings4_0123.jpg] [attach=5030/18/pjjs0z.400x600.stallings4_0153.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861392 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 19:01:23 +0000 Foodnerd81 2861392@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: I like either all in different outfits, or all matching. I would t do two matching and one different I don’t think. </p> <p>I really love the striped ones, so I would keep that for one girl, then maybe the pink one for the baby and white eyelid for one of the big girls. </p> <p>That said, I put my two girls in matching dresses for our pictures. They really love matching right now so the pictures just show that part of our lives right now. (I did matching dresses with coordinating cardigans because it was fall, though it randomly was 80 degrees that day anyway). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861389 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 18:39:51 +0000 PinkElephant 2861389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@peachykeen: Thanks! I'm curious, how dark/light did the pink set "read" in the photos? Both that and the rainbow dresses are looking a lot more vivid than I expected in photos taken in my family room (ha!), but I'm hoping the sun would wash out the color a bit to make them lighter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861343 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 15:01:58 +0000 peachykeen 2861343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For beach photos, I'll be unpopular and say option A :happy: </p> <p>The rainbow dresses seem like they would look beautiful with your girls running around the beach or playing in the water. We did that pink set for DD2's 6m photos (not beach, though) and it is so beautiful on! </p> <p>I do like the HA dresses a lot but they don't read beachy to me. </p> <p>To me, option B doesn't seem quite flowy enough for the beach and option D seems too casual unless that's what you're going for. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861319 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 14:05:12 +0000 PinkElephant 2861319@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erinbaderin: @Kaohinani: @Mrs. Champagne: </p> <p>Thanks, ladies! I like your mixing ideas! This is my first time doing outdoor photos as a family. @Kaohinani: hit the nail on the head with the point about studio portraits...we've done those on an all white background in very similar dresses to the tulle skirted ones I posted here and they were fantastic, but I can see how that'd be a bit much for the beach. My husband also can do studio pictures of the girl at home, so that leaves us an option to use the outfits another time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861304 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 13:30:16 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2861304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baby in white from your first pic<br /> Middle in stripes<br /> Oldest in chambray! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861301 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 13:11:49 +0000 Kaohinani 2861301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>All of you choices are adorable, however, I LOVE the denim for your oldest daughter and fresh, crisp, "beachy white" for your littles. I believe it would look coordinated and classic without being over done. The girls and the scenery would be the focus of the photo shoot and not the "matchy-matchy outfits." In a traditional photo shoot in a studio, coordinating/matching outfits (such as Option C) would be perfect. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861278 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 11:50:02 +0000 Mrsbells 2861278@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PinkElephant: I like the 2nd photo best because it is coordinated without being so matchy as the other options </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861274 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 11:33:53 +0000 JennyPenny 2861274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For the beach I like the eyelet dresses with chambray. And then I'd add some more blue/grey into you and DH's outfits. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861262 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 10:49:43 +0000 erinbaderin 2861262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don’t love having everybody be matching, so I’d eliminate options where two or all of the kids were in the same outfit. What about one rainbow stripe, one chambray, and one pink? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/style-us-beach-family-photo-shoot#post-2861242 Mon, 10 Dec 2018 09:36:10 +0000 PinkElephant 2861242@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I need style help for family beach photos! DDs are 2, 4, and 6. Options include:</p> <p>A) big girls in rainbow stripe dresses, baby in pink subsist or white eyelet dress</p> <p>B) little girls in white eyelet dresses, big sis in either solid pink or chambray dress</p> <p>C) all three girls in pink HA swish dresses, or each girl in a different color of that same dress.</p> <p>D) pastel jean shorts and white embroidered tops for big girls; ??? For baby</p> <p>I’ve also got other sunsuit options for the baby, including chambray, so if you don’t like what you see, I’m not limited to these options! I don’t have much time to make new purchases, though (one week).</p> <p>DH will wear khakis/khaki shorts and I white top, I’m plNning on white skinny ankle jeans and a top wow irk with whatever the girls wear (or I could do a white skirt, but didn’t want to risk it blowing).</p> <p>Thanks for any ideas! I’m usually ok at this, but am trying to minimize what I pack since this will be happening on vacation!! </p> [attach=2883/18/pjiz8a.450x600.C181917C-0A00-4898-82A2-677C8EB416C9.jpeg] [attach=2883/18/pjiz8b.450x600.88A22080-9169-4302-AE2D-8693076ED3C1.jpeg] [attach=2883/18/pjiz8d.600x450.8A1D1F6D-F63C-4915-A44D-D9916FC5CCF5.jpeg] [attach=2883/18/pjiz8e.450x600.A6635FC1-2083-4372-BACB-C214628810BE.jpeg]
