What should I wear for a Chinese New Year photoshoot?
We recommend wearing colour-coordinated outfits as a family! For a Chinese Year New family photoshoot, auspicious colours like red or pink are highly encouraged! You can match these coloured tops with darker bottoms for a better contrast on pictures.
Kids and toddlers can be dressed in brighter colours, while older kids and adults can work with darker shades and accessories as well. Overall, the goal is to achieve a cohesive look in your family photos.
For the men and boys, shirts with mandarin collar or a formal button-up will look stylish on camera. As for the ladies, dresses like cheongsams, Peranakan-style kebayas or modern two-piece outfits are perfect.
Do try to avoid busy or loud patterns on your clothes, simple is best to help you stand out from the decorations in the background!
“We had high expectations for our Chinese New Year family photoshoot, especially after browsing through White Room Studio’s photography portfolio. And White Room Studio didn’t disappoint
Their photographer was very patient and engaging, despite having to chase after 4 kids. We love how the photos turned out and how they captured the moments. 5 stars
