Coordinating colors for your family portrait

What should we wear? It is the most common question I get when families book their session with me.  Or, should we just wear white?  The most important thing is that a family coordinate their clothing and represent who they are.  Are they more playful and casual?  Do they want a more formal look, or just be right in between.  Be YOU!   I believe the portraits look more beautiful when the clothing is coordinated, not just all matchy, matchy and that the clothing style matches (casual summer vs. some in nicer dresses and ties, while others in shorts).  Below is a family I photographed this summer that did an excellent job coordinating.  I think they look amazing!
