The guys will wear jeans and dark navy polos; DD will wear a pinstrip cardi with tank; mine is above; the baby will be the "diva!"

Navy is not a good color to be photographed in. Google this for other suggestions.

I love it. I think navy or any deep blue photographs beautifully, but of course, I'm not a professional. how will you wear the scarf? love the top...is that a frayed bottom edge?

And consult with the photographer about it if you decide on something else. He or she may also have specific backdrops in mind with that color recommendation that would be altered if you show up in another color.

Thanks, Mocahoney! This top is a J Crew one with a crochet lace front; it is a tee. I own one in white and this is one of the few open necklines that are flattering on me! So, I will wear this one a lot for other things. Yes, the bottom is frayed!!

I think the scarf will just go in the neckline and somewhat soften the edge around my face. If the photographer suggests otherwise (no scarf or tie differently) I will go with what "he" says!

I haven't seen anywhere that navy is not a good color for photos! It's best if not everyone is in the exact same color, but in different shades of that color.
