Gah! If only I’d discovered Jamie Kay when my kids were younger. I just love the textures and patterns in these little outfits. Each piece is designed from their studio in New Zealand and so much care goes into each outfit to ensure their designs are exquisite. And the quality of the dresses is outstanding! These stunning dresses are just perfect for portrait sessions.

#5. Little Boys ???
Okay, I'm not going to lie. It’s super hard to find stylish boys’ clothes. I mean, who wants clothes with logos, text, or pictures in their photos?
Yep, it’s hard finding boutique boys clothing stores.
However, as well as Love Henry and Jamie Kay who sell cute, photography perfect outfits for boys, I discovered Three Little Boys and Little Gents Store .
And while they offer some super cute outfits, most of the items have logos and text which isn’t ideal for photos. Clothing with text or logos tends to date so I don’t recommend wearing it for photos.
But you know where you can buy boys clothing perfect for photo sessions.
Wait for it … Kmart, Target, Best & Less and Big-W!
I know right? All these major retailers have gorgeous dressy and trendy outfits for boys.
Just check out the super cute little dude below!
