How to Plan a Fall Photoshoot

Fall is one of the best times of the year for portraits, whether that be of your child, your family, your pet, maternity or any type of portrait! 

That’s because nature creates a fantastic backdrop for us in fall (or autumn in you are in the UK) with the leaves on the trees turning into beautiful shades of red, orange and yellow,  creating a vibrant, warm, cozy look to our portraits.

So in this week’s episode, I’m sharing how you can plan for a fall photoshoot - from when to find the best time of year to shoot,  what to think about when planning your outfits, lighting, practical tips and more.

In this episode we discuss: 

  • How to find the best dates to shoot in the US and UK (starting now from mid-Nov)

  • Location ideas for your fall photoshoot.

  • The best times of day for a fall photoshoot, so you can get the best light for highlighting the beautiful fall colours

  • What to consider when outfit planning, and some accessories that can really help tie everything together. 

  • Practical tips to help your fall photoshoot go smoothly!
