Styling a Kids’ Valentine’s Photo Shoot with Danny Weiss
When renowned photographer, Danny Weiss asks you to collaborate on a kids’ project, you don’t say no. I was so excited that I didn’t fret about having to charge all these clothes on my card and then have to return and pray that everything credited OK post-shoot…well almost. haha Luckily, all the borrowed clothes stayed in perfect condition and everything went just fine.
We aimed for a Valentine’s themed look, with lots of reds, some hearts and a lot of fun thrown in!
The kids here were wearing a mix of Janie and Jack, Gap, and the Children’s Place. Staying within the black and white + red theme made all these looks cohesive and classic. The below shot just kills me.
I want her to stay this little forever!
Keeping in line with the black, white and red color story, we shot the below series and danced along to some music. The kids were too much!
What was your favorite shot?

Then change up the accessories. Sensible shoes for the day to stilettos at night. Tote bag for the day which hides a clutch for that night. I paired this Calvin Klein baby pink sheath dress with a frilly trench coat, heels and a white enamel hairpin and necklace as my nod to Valentines. It’s a work outfit that is special enough to go from cubicle to cocktails!
Make sure to pair it with heels to avoid looking too prairie like and give it more of a high-fashion edge. This dress from Other Stories has unfortunately sold out but below are inspired items in pink that I recommend for Valentines that you can still shop.
