What should we wear to our family beach portraits?
No matter who the subject is, wearing white is always a good choice. Pair this with neutrals for a softening yet effective look that goes with any backdrop. Whether you have a cloudy day or sunlight, wearing white will highlight the blue of the ocean. It looks great with all skin tones and hair colors. However, if you do want a pop of color, I would stick with shades of blues as they stand out with the neutral backdrop of the sand.
