Ever consider it's just coincidental interference?

Always thought matching fabrics was key for group photos. Your denim reunion story showed me how wrong I was. Now I see that picking colors like green and tan for a backyard shot makes everyone look good without forcing a style. Have you used this trick for holiday pictures too?

Actually did that with seashells from the beach last summer. Just having them in a bowl on the coffee table makes them feel like real treasures instead of just stuff. It totally looks neat and makes me smile.
