Fall Family Photos: What to Wear


As the leaves start to turn and the crisp air sets in, it's that time of year again – fall family photo season! One of the key ingredients to achieving those picture-perfect moments is choosing the right outfits for your family. Fall provides a beautiful backdrop with its warm and rich colors, so it's essential to ensure your clothing complements the season. Here are some tips to guide you on what to wear for those memorable fall family photos.


1. Embrace Solid Colors and Neutrals:

Fall's natural beauty shines best when your family's outfits blend seamlessly with the surroundings. Opt for solid colors and neutrals like deep burgundy, forest green, warm brown, or classic beige. These hues not only harmonize with the autumn scenery but also lend a timeless elegance to your photos. Avoid overly bright or clashing colors that may distract from the natural beauty of the season.


2. Add Texture and Layers:

Fall is the season of coziness, and you can incorporate this into your family's attire by choosing textured fabrics and layering your outfits. Think chunky knit sweaters, tweed blazers, or corduroy pants. Layers not only keep everyone warm but also add depth and interest to your photos. Don't forget scarves, vests, or cardigans for a touch of style and comfort.



3. Accessorize Thoughtfully:

Accessories can elevate your fall family photos to a whole new level. Consider hats, scarves, and gloves in complementary colors and textures to add visual interest. Coordinating accessories can tie the whole family look together while allowing each member to express their individual style. Be sure to choose accessories that match the overall theme and ambiance you want to create in your photos.

In conclusion, dressing for fall family photos is all about embracing the season's warmth and richness. Solid colors and neutrals blend seamlessly with the autumn backdrop, while textures, layers, and thoughtful accessories add depth and style to your family's ensemble. By following these tips, you'll not only look great but also capture the essence of fall in your cherished family photographs. So, don your best fall attire, head outdoors, and let the natural beauty of the season frame your family's love and togetherness.


4. Take advantage of my client closet!

I have a full client closet of mainly kids and women's clothes! I am working on a full comprehensive photo gallery of everything, but for now I can send you photos of items in your size or you are welcome to swing by and check things out and try them on. When using items from the client closet, wear/bring a change of clothes and prepare to make a quick change in your vehicle on the day of the shoot!
