Your Photo Session is all about capturing memorable photos of you in gorgeous fields of ranunculus flowers at The Flower Fields in Carlsbad, CA.

Top Tips regarding What to Wear to a Photo Session at The Flower Fields

• Showcase your personality Consider wearing something that you feel comfortable wearing and

may have worn at least once prior. A “tested” outfit. If you’re wearing clothes that make you feel

good it will come through in the photos.

• Weather-appropriate  Mornings may start off cool but as the sun gets higher it could warm up

quickly. Consider fabrics that aren’t too heavy (e.g. light, flowy dresses, shirts, etc.). There’s no

shade out in the fields of flowers. Keep in mind that linen and silk may wrinkle.

• Appropriate shoes for the terrain It is a working farm, and all of the pathways are gravel and

dirt and a little hilly. Wear comfortable shoes for walking. If you want a different pair of shoes

for the photos, consider carrying them in a bag.

• Comfort Outfits that allow you to move easily, breathable, aren’t too heavy. Do you have children

who will be photographed during the session? Make sure their outfits are comfortable too, and

it’s best to bring a spare for young children who may spit up or get dirty quickly.

• Movement Flowy dresses or skirts are a fun option.

What Is the Best Color to Wear to a Photo Session at The Flower Fields?

• Solid colors or subtle patterns are a great option. Keeps the focus on you and can easily be

paired with different backgrounds and settings without clashing.

• Pastel Shades such as soft blues, pale pinks, light mint, lavender, and soft yellow are a nice

compliment to the flowers and natural environment.

• Neutral colors & muted blues and greens allow you to play it safe. Muted and earthy tones

typically complement a variety of skin tones.

• Bold colors or patterns are great if that suits your usual style.

Should Everyone Match in My Photos?

• Colors that compliment but don't necessarily have to match exactly.

• What about everyone wearing a different color? I have seen this work too! Make sure the colors

that you pick are complimentary. Complimentary colors are those that sit directly across one

another on a color wheel. You can search color wheels online, print color swatches, or stop by a

paint store and grab some color cards to help match a grouping of colors before you begin

 shopping.

Don’t Forget the Essentials

• Hat

• Consider a lightweight sweater or jacket when there’s a marine layer and it’s cool.
