The Complete Guide to Fall Engagement Photos

During the fall season, the weather is so lovely for outdoor photos. Regardless, of where you live in the country – this is the best time of year to include nature and not be concerned about sweating or freezing.

Our team has put together a list of our favorite fall engagement photo ideas including locations, style ideas, and ideal time of day.

Fall Engagement Photoshoot Ideas:

Fall Harvest: Find a corn field, apple orchard, or vineyard.

Bed of Leaves: An overhead photo with you cheek-to-cheek is super cute.

Engagement Ring Close-Up: Select a few colorful leaves and place your engagement ring on them to get a close-up.

Hiking Trail: Wander around the hiking trail for a sweet and simple backdrop.

Among the Trees: Walking through the trees with the sun peeking through makes for soft, lovely photos.

Blue Skies and Autumn Leaves: Whether it is an overcast or a sunny day, finding a place where the blue sky meets the autumn colors makes for beautiful photos.

Dancing in a Field: Putting the focus on the bride taking a little twirl among a neutral palette.

Rustic Barn Doors: If you are having a barn wedding ceremony or reception, this is a great photo for your website. Find a weathered worn door or a rustic back drop.

String Lights: Create a romantic ambiance placed among the grass and fall foliage.

Bring a Blanket: This brings a pop of color along with an area to sit or cozy up on.

Golden Hour: When scheduling your photo shoot with your photographer, make sure to check the sunset or sunrise for that day. The golden hour is the last hour before sunset or the first hour after sunrise. This time provides the “perfect” light to capture stunning photos.

Painted Sky: If you have selected the evening time for your photos – the pinks and blues of the sunset blend together beautifully and compliment the fall colors.

Fall Reflection: Even rainy days spark creativity. Find a pond of water with colorful leaves to get a photo of your reflection in the water.

Animals: Incorporate horses or your fur babies in your photos. The photos will be cohesive and dreamy.

On a Bridge: Find a foot bridge for a romantic photo setting.

Depending on where you live, some things are easier to find than others. Consider your relationship and be sure to incorporate your personalities and most cherished times together when making your photo list.
