Holiday Photos

 Holiday Photos


I think that we can all agree that the holidays are going to look A LOT different this year! Many of our traditions will look very different in 2020-We wont be going to as many gatherings and the few that we might attend will not have as many people present...and we'll be wearing masks. 

One thing that should remain the same is the beauty of Holiday Family Photos. This year, maybe more so than any other, we should be documenting the year; as well as celebrating our families and all of our health. There are so many people that we have not been able to see and spend time with throughout 2020; therefore, your family photo will play a huge role in connecting and spreading holiday cheer!

So, you have booked the photographer- What's next?

Your Outfit- because we KNOW that Mom's outfit is what sets the tone for the "look" of your photos, that and the backdrop that the photographer provides... So, where do you start?

I like to pick a "LOOK" and start there... Will I go with-

CLASSIC- Think a solid color dress, cute boots/booties and a fun accessory...

GLAM-Think a sleek pair of skinny pants or leggings, a nice textured top- lace or velvet, maybe- and a statement piece of jewelry...

or

COUNTRY/FARMHOUSE-Think jeans, boots or booties, a festive colored top or sweater...

Either way it is so important for YOU to Feel Good- so that while you are wrestling with the kids and reminding them to SMILE you know that the photo will come out beautiful!

My advice is to pick your outfit out first and then match the kids to what you are wearing; your look and your colors. From there- move to your husband. Important tip- color and pattern is great! But don't overdo it! If you are wearing a pattern dress or top keep the kids and your husband in mostly solids. If you are wearing mostly solids; throw on a fun scarf or great statement piece of jewelry and put either the kids in a matching pattern or your husband in a fun pattern shirt or sweater... Blame it on me.  

Here are a few looks that I have put together for Holiday Family Photos to help get you started.  

I would Love to help you pick the perfect look for you and your family for your photos so that you all look awesome and you feel confident that all pieces work together.

New Year Refresh

I t’s that time of year when the holidays are over our holiday Decor is put away, hopefully! Your home is clean & quiet & let’s face it- we’re stuck in the house right now due various reasons. So, it’s a great time to reevaluate and refresh. I find that if I don’t go through my things, refresh and get rid of things that I don’t need or use; think those fancy underwear that you bought that were so uncomfortable that you never wore them!  That being said- Let’s get rid of the clutter and keep the things that we feel our best in! If we learned anything in 2020 it was to live our best lives. I like to take the end of January/beginning of February as a time to go through my things. I start with the most important; my “intimates”… Meaning bras underwear pajamas and of course my robe! This week at Smooth Styling with Corinne we are going to explore all of these! We will talk about underwear/panties (I hate that word)... bras/bralettes/sports bras, pajamas- I will Share with you my fav

What's in My Closet...???

  I have been thinking deeply about how the "staples" of our wardrobes have changed in this past year; as most things have. It is always fun and absolutely necessary to add new trends and have fun with color, texture & pattern within our wardrobe; however, it is essential that we have a foundation for these exciting pieces to be a part of. Think of a new house- the fixtures; like the kitchen cabinets and the bathroom tile are so important as a way to show the homeowner's style & personality. However, you can't have those beautiful "add ons" without the foundation of the house in place.  The "staples" of your wardrobe are the foundation, just like the house, and the fixtures are "add ons," they add character, personality, spice! Wardrobe staples used to be boring-  Black slacks, a white button down shirt, a black shoe They have always slightly differed & evolved with the times- but 2020 definitely pushed us into a whole new wor

Making a list, checking it twice...

Do you have a holiday shopping list? Santa should not be the only one making a list & checking it twice!  Getting & staying  organized around the holidays is a skill all to its own. As we know most Moms have what we call"Holiday Anxiety." Don't get me wrong- I know you LOVE the holidays! The decorating as a family, baking together, visiting Santa, getting the Christmas tree & decorating, drinking hot chocolate together- the whole shebang... BUT we have A LOT to do & most of that "To Do" is behind the scenes. It is the prepping, the shopping, the wrapping, the organizing that the kids, & often others, do not see.  Well, I do not need one more thing to be stressed about. I want to enjoy my hot chocolate & be able to reorganize the ornaments on the Christmas tree in peace :) and I would be LOST without my Holiday Gift Spreadsheet. I am not a spreadsheet kind of girl on the daily. I will admit that lists are my jam & I could not live with
