Cooler weather, Pumpkin Spice Lattes, football, fall festivals, Halloween, Thanksgiving, scarecrows, leaves, and family remind me of Fall. Fall is my favorite season and it is also one of the busiest seasons of the year for photographers! I also love fall attire more than any other season. I start wearing my leggings and sweaters when it gets in the 80s trying to encourage Mother Nature to switch into “fall mode”!
If you’re having your portraits made in the fall, here are some ideas for you to pull inspiration from:
Colors:
- Olive Green
- Mustard Yellow
- Brown
- Cream
- Plum
- Burgundy/Maroon

Attire & Accessories:
- Scarfs
- Booties
- Boots
- Vests
- Long sleeve dresses
- Sweaters
- Felt hats
- Maxi skirts/dresses
***Layering is key for a cute, fall inspired outfit. Don’t be afraid to start in a cute dress or romper, throw a denim jacket or vest on over it and then add a hat or scarf!
Textures and Materials:
- Denim
- Suade
- Faux Fur
- Fringe
- Lace
- Herringbone

Beware Of:
