One of the biggest questions I hear as a luxury photographer in Hampton Roads is: “What should we wear for our session?”
I get it- styling a whole family can feel overwhelming since most of the time, choosing clothes for family photos falls on Mom! Between running errands, scrolling endless websites, and trying to coordinate outfits without being too “matchy-matchy,” it can quickly turn into an stress-filled project, on top of everything else on your plate.
That’s exactly why I’ve built a carefully curated Client Closet– to serve busy moms and make documenting priceless family memories easier. It’s one of the things that makes me a love being a full-service photographer in Hampton Roads!
Wardrobe Shapes the Look of Your Photos
Clothing isn’t just an afterthought-it sets the tone for your images. Flowy dresses, soft textures, and neutral tones photograph beautifully against the glowy golden light and natural backdrops we love here in Hampton Roads.
I’ve spent years building a wardrobe collection that elevates your photos while taking the stress off your plate.
Over 80 Dresses Curated for Moms
I start with moms first because, let’s be honest, when you feel beautiful, confident, and comfortable, the whole session flows more smoothly.
My client closet currently includes over 80 hand-picked dresses designed to flatter a variety of body types and photograph beautifully. These aren’t fast-fashion finds from Shein or Amazon-each piece is chosen for its quality, movement, and timeless feel.
Many of my dresses are organic or sustainably made, often from small businesses, with retail values ranging from $75–$300. Some of my favorite brands include:
Wardrobe for the Whole Family
Along with dresses for moms, I have almost 100 pieces for children– adorable, high-quality outfits that are both comfortable and photo-ready. And for dads, I’m building a growing collection of timeless basics that coordinate beautifully without feeling overly styled.
The result? A cohesive, elevated look that feels natural, not forced. Some of my favorite kids brands are
Jamie Kay, Rylee and Cru, Isla and Fraser
