Spring is in full bloom, and it’s the perfect time to refresh your family portraits! At Dos Kiwis Studio, we’ve seen fashion trends evolve, and this year, we’re excited to embrace bolder choices, playful textures, and even patterns (yes, patterns!)—all while keeping your portraits timeless.
Plus, with Fiesta just around the corner and many families spending time at the ranch, it’s the perfect season to mix rustic charm with spring elegance. Whether you’re dressing up or keeping it laid-back in your favorite boots, we’ve got you covered.
1. Soft Pastels & Earthy Neutrals
Pastel colors have always been a springtime staple, and in 2025, they pair beautifully with earthy neutrals for a warm and polished look. Think blush, sky blue, soft sage, and lavender mixed with taupe, sand, and cream tones.
Style Tip: A sage green dress with nude boots or a light blue button-down with khaki pants looks effortlessly put together.
2. Yes, You Can Wear Patterns!
For years, photographers advised against patterns, fearing they’d be too distracting. But guess what? Fashion has spoken! This year, soft florals, delicate stripes, and subtle geometric prints are making their way into family portraits, adding depth and personality.
Style Tip: Keep it balanced—if one person wears a pattern, let others wear solid colors from the same palette to maintain harmony.
3. Rustic Boots & Relaxed Ranch Style
Here in Texas, spring means outdoor adventures, time at the ranch, and breaking out our favorite boots. Whether you love a Western touch or just want a comfortable, timeless style, cowboy boots, denim, and layered textures are great additions to your portraits.
Style Tip: Pair boots with a flowy dress for contrast, or go classic with jeans, a linen shirt, and leather boots.
4. Fiesta-Inspired Pops of Color
With Fiesta San Antonio happening soon, why not add a little celebratory flair to your portraits? While traditional Fiesta outfits might be too bold for timeless portraits, subtle nods to the season—like a **bright accessory, embroidered details, or colorful earrings—**can make your photos feel uniquely Texan.
Style Tip: A classic white outfit with colorful accents (think: turquoise jewelry, a bright scarf, or a woven belt) can subtly bring in the Fiesta spirit without overpowering your photos.
5. Breezy, Textured Fabrics
Spring is all about light and airy fabrics. Textured materials like linen, cotton, and lightweight knits add dimension to your look while keeping things relaxed and breathable for those warm Texas days.
Style Tip: A linen button-down, a cotton jumpsuit, or an embroidered dress brings in texture and charm without looking stiff or formal.
6. The New "Matching Without Overmatching" Rule
Gone are the days of identical outfits (no more all-white shirts and jeans). Instead, we recommend choosing a color palette and letting each family member mix and match within it.
Style Tip: If your palette is blush, cream, and sage, try dressing Dad in cream pants and a sage shirt, Mom in a soft floral dress, and the kids in coordinating solids and subtle prints.
Final Touch: Accessories & Shoes That Fit the Setting
Whether your session is at the ranch, in a park, or in the studio, choosing the right accessories makes a big difference. Keep it simple but meaningful—a hat, a leather belt, or even a lightweight scarf can add personality without overwhelming the photo.
For shoes, boots work beautifully for a rustic look, while nude sandals or neutral-toned flats keep it classic. If you're feeling adventurous, going barefoot for a relaxed vibe can be a great option too!
