What should a family wear for winter pictures?
When it comes to winter family photoshoot outfits, there are many options to choose from. You can keep it simple with cable-knit sweaters, shearling jackets, pants, and boots. Or, dress up with a shimmery maxi dress and have the boys in blazers and button-up shirts.
Whether you love the rich, beautiful colours of the season (think deep burgundy, forest green, silvers, and golds) or like to keep it minimal, modern, and neutral, there’s an idea here for you!
The Winter Family Photoshoot Outfits List:
We absolutely love this simple and classy neutral combination for winter family photoshoot outfits. The main colors are black and ivory, with only a subtle plaid pattern on the little girls skirt (it has a touch of green with black and white).
The cozy sweaters mesh wonderfully with casual black denim. And, the sleek, black sweater dress on the mama is just so flattering and chic.
This look is perfect for an indoor photoshoot, but you can easily take it outdoors on a mild winter day!
Burgundy, plaid, and tan.
This gorgeous combination works so well when it comes to winter photoshoot outfits. The neutral tan sweater, burgundy knit, and pop of plaid look polished and classy.
We also love the small touch of plaid under the tan sweater!
We would pair these tops with denim for a casual look, or dress pants on the boys and a black silk midi skirt on mama. If there is a girl in the family, a knit sweater or cream puffer jacket with a plaid skirt and black booties would complete the ensemble (see below!).

Another classic and cozy neutral combination, we love how the light beige, tan, and black works together in this winter family photo. This photoshoot is laid-back but still classy, and the dress and leather jacket with fedora hat is such a great look for the mama.
These colors blend perfectly with the winter scene and everything looks cohesive.
There is so much beautiful color in this winter family photoshoot! We love that the colors are muted but pop against the white snow.
Both mom and dad are wearing forest green and rust red tones, and the girls are in lighter neutrals with pops of mustard, red, and green.
Extra layers of warmth are added with knits and the most precious fur vest on the little girl. And, everyone in brown shoes ties in with the earth tones.
Such a great combination!
Blue linen with black and white gingham.
This is an unexpected outfit combination but it totally works. The bold blue is softened by linen fabric, and the black and white gingham dress is a complementing neutral.
We also love the pops of greenery in the background. It goes to show that this outfit combination would look great for an indoor or outdoor winter photoshoot.
If you have more people in your shoot, you could dress the others in a mix of solid black, solid white, gingham, and similar tones of this beautiful blue.

This is the coziest looking winter family photoshoot ever! While the outfits are subtle with tan pants, brown beanie hats, a black jacket, and grey wool fedora, the key is the Mexican-inspired throw blankets.
These blankets have a boho vibe and are beautiful with the muted colours. Not only do they add warmth to an outdoor winter family photoshoot, they also add a lot of interest.
(If you love bold colors this outfit combination is a great choice. The gorgeous green dress and wool fedora look stunning against the black denim and subtle black and green plaid shirt on the dad.
The little girl is wearing a white sherpa jacket with knit leggings and black boots which looks so cute. We love the addition of a fuzzy blanket to add warmth and texture to the overall look.
For a much more casual, fun, and candid holiday-inspired look, this is the one. We love the cute pajamas on the kiddos and the muted patterned pajamas on the mama.
It’s also a nice surprise that the boys pajamas are not matching, but are all the same theme. This helps to create interest and avoiding the look being too “matchy-matchy”.
If you are looking for laid-back and memorable winter family photoshoot outfits, the “family in festive pajamas” option is really great!
This photography session makes us think of winter in California. There is no snow but the outfits are still cozy and warm and have a great winter vibe.
The mama is wearing a lovely textured sweater with wide leg linen pants, and the little one is wearing a muted linen jumper and leather moccasin-inspired shoes.
To complete the look for a family, we would have the other adult in a neutral linen button up and dark charcoal chino pants. And, any other siblings in a mix of muted coloured or neutral linen and knits.
Bright whites, warm browns, green, and muted floral.
Another one of our favourite looks, is this warm outfit combination. It is perfect if you live somewhere where the winter isn’t super snowy, or if your photoshoot is during the transition from fall to winter.
We love the mix of bright whites with the knit sweater on the mama and the flipped look on the dad. The mix of patterns too. The leopard booties and subtle neutral floral print on the girls dress complements the muted green dress on the other girl.
Such a great winter family photoshoot outfit combo. See how we put a similar look together below!

This winter family photoshoot looks so fun and playful, as if they are simply enjoying a day outside in the snow… with perfectly curated outfits!
We love the combination of the shearling, and brown tones with the touches of blush on all the girls. The scarf, toque, and pink coat add a fun pop of color to the look.
The colors compliment each other so well, and the addition of other neutrals like grey and cream ties it all together.
If you are wondering what to wear for outdoor winter family photos, and you know it’s going to be very chilly, parkas can be a great option too! It is winter after all.
This look is super simple and perfect for a really cold day taking photos outdoors. Everyone can wear a black or neutral winter jacket with a neutral toque, and add little pops of color with scarves or gloves.
If you live in a city that doesn’t get a ton of snow in the winter, this winter family photoshoot outfit combination is a great option. It still has a winter vibe but is less cozy while still looking classy.
The bright white contrast so well with the black, and the the touches of tan and brown are perfect colors to add in.
We are huge fans of gingham, and the neutral gingham shirt looks great on dad. It adds the perfect amount of pattern to this lovely family look.
Greys, browns, and denim with subtle patterns.
For another casual and fun family look, this combination has a blend of grey knits, brown tones, and subtle patterns like stripes and polka dots.
The denim on the bottom keeps the photoshoot looking laid-back, while the tops add some warmth and style. This would be a perfect outfit choice for a time of year when it’s transitioning from fall to winter and the snow is just hitting the ground!
Creamy whites, knits, shearling, and denim.
This is definitely one of our favourite winter family photoshoot outfits on the list. The classy blend of cream and ivory against the white snow, and the little touches of tan on that sweet bambino…what’s not to love??
While we cannot see the footwear choice for the mom and dad, we would recommend muted brown leather boots and heeled booties. If there were another child in the family, we would recommend a muted floral long sleeve dress with matching cream leggings and light brown boots.
See how we put a similar look together below!

Last, but not least, for a classy and dressy winter family photoshoot, this combination has the perfect mix of it all.
We love the beautiful cable knit sweater and gold skirt on the mama along with the sweet white tutu dress on the girl. Both are so pretty and feminine.
The girls look great next to the darker blazer on dad, and lovely knit sweater on the little boy. It’s classy, polished, and great for winter photos that will end up in Christmas cards for friends and family.
