A fall family photo session is a great way to capture warm, cozy moments with loved ones. Here are some tips to make it perfect:


1. Location Ideas:

  • Parks & Forests – Beautiful fall foliage as a backdrop.
  • Lakeside or Creekside – Reflecting fall colors in the water.
  • Open Fields – A golden, rustic aesthetic.

2. Outfit Ideas:

  • Coordinated, Not Matching – Stick to a color palette like warm neutrals, earthy tones, or jewel tones (burgundy, mustard, forest green).
  • Layers & Textures – Sweaters, scarves, flannels, and denim add depth to photos.

3. Best Time for Photos:

  • Golden Hour (1-2 Hours Before Sunset) – Soft, warm lighting for a dreamy look.
  • Overcast Days – Even lighting without harsh shadows.
  • Morning Light – Crisp and fresh if you prefer an early start.


I had so much fun with these guys last fall for our annual fall mini session! These kiddos were SO playful and mom and dad had such a good time too!
