Fall is the by far the busiest season for family photos, so my hope is that these style boards help take some of the stress OFF of you and make planning your fall family photo outfits a BREEZE. 🙂

As a full-service photographer, I pamper busy Moms with personalized wardrobe styling for their maternity, newborn and family sessions & give access to my client closet of dresses to borrow for their session.

Additionally, my hope is that this blog can also be a great resource for those who have not booked their fall family photos but want to start dreaming up the options for classic, timeless family photo outfits. 😉

From cool tones to warm tones, neutrals and fall tones, take a look below to start getting inspired.

What outfits to wear for Fall Family Photos

When deciding on outfits, think about color “families” or “temperatures” and try to keep everyone in either cool tones (more blue and grey) OR warm tones (camel, sage green, blush, off white, etc).

Adding TEXTURES like knits and woven material will help add variety even in the same color family, and layers are great for adding additional depth to your photos, and warmth, too.

What colors are best for fall family photo outfits?

Most families tend to gravitate toward darker colors and heavier jewel tones with styling for the Fall months.

I recommend balancing the traditional Fall colors out with neutrals as much as possible, especially if you are one of my clients who appreciates my light & airy editing style. Lighter lighter tones will be more consistent with photos I’ve already captured for your family and blend right in with your favorites from past sessions. This is especially important to think of when considering adding framed photos to your existing gallery walls or the annual family album you are already in the process of building with me!

Lighter, more neutral color patterns help us to keep the focus on the EMOTION in the imagery in your portraits, and maintain a timeless look in the imagery.

How to Make the most out of your family photos!

PRO TIP: when selecting fall family photo outfits, keep in mind HOW you want to ENJOY the images you create with your photographer!

• Create a gallery wall of FRAMES with your favorite images. You gallery can grown as your family does by adding one or two frames from each session.
• Create an ALBUM. Can’t select just a few favorite images? Pick ALL of your favorites to create an album! Not only can the heirloom album be duplicated in a mini version that is ideal for Grandparent gifts but they are also perfect for the kiddos who want to flip through their own copy.
• Order holiday cards with the images!
• Holiday Gifts. Ask your photographer about other gift ideas! They may offer unique, curated gifts that you might have not thought of!
