How to Style a Golden Hour Fall Family Photoshoot

Is there anything more magical than the time of year when summer turns to fall? I would argue that here in the PNW, this is our time to shine! The days are long, the mornings are cool, and the days are warm. Chefs kiss…total perfection. It’s no wonder that this is one of the most sought after times of year to photograph with your family!

We want to share three things to help you style your golden hour Fall Family Photoshoot, so keep reading to learn our top three tips!

01. STYLE ACCORDING TO YOUR SETTING | Are you photographing in the city? Consider wrapping up in chic jackets and patterned scarves. Is your setting a park surrounded by fall leaves? Stand out from your environment with velvet textures, neutral patterns, and warm layers.

Check out our BLOG for more inspiration on Family Portrait styling (we also LOVE to browse Pinterest to get our creative juices flowing).

02. SCHEDULE TO THE SEASON | In the PNW, the best time of year for that gorgeous golden fall light is the beginning of October to mid-November. While many might be tempted to schedule their Fall Family Photos earlier in autumn, you run the chance that the outdoors will still be holding on to a summery look. Check out our online scheduling calendar to find the day that will work best for you!

03. TRUST THE PROCESS | The reason why you can relax and enjoy these special moments with your loved ones is because our Studio B Team knows exactly how to create something magical for you! We will bring the best light, recommend the best locations, and guide you through custom posing to build your confidence! So relax and enjoy the journey.

We just adore the joy and love that the Crooks family brought to their outdoor Fall Family Photos! It was so obvious from the moment we met them that they truly enjoy each other’s company…those smiles brighten the photos from the inside out!
