Summer Dress Inspiration : Metro Detroit Family Photographer : chelsie maurer photography

Mamas! I'm talking to you here.

So, you're planning a family photo session to take advantage of our glorious Michigan summer. You've got it all booked with your photographer; pat yourself on the back as you've got it scheduled! Now you're mildly panicking because you're actually doing this and you have no idea what to wear. Have no fear - this is all moms when trying to figure out attire! And I'm here to give you some ideas.

The veerrryyy first thing I tell moms when they are trying to figure out attire is to get YOUR outfit picked out first. We are our hardest and most picky critics, so figure out what you love on you, then dive into the rest of the family.

And since we are talking summer sessions, I've gather some dresses (all under $80, by the way!) for you to check out. I absolutely love to see you mamas sporting dresses in summer because it.is.just.beautiful. and feminine and flowy in that sweet summer breeze. 

I have hand picked some ideas for you and put them on my Pinterest Board to make it easy for you to see and Pin for yourselves!  The dresses are from Vici, Target, Amazon, Fashion Nova, Old Navy and Area Look.

As I tell all my clients, I'd love to help you with outfits. I give my honest opinion if you're torn between a few choices to try and help you feel gorgeous and get the look you want in your photos.

Now lets go out in a field at golden hour for that family session you've been wanting.

xo,

Chelsie
