25 Fall Photo Shoot Ideas

With the new season upon us, I thought I would share some fall photo shoot ideas for you moms to try with your kids!  As much as I love summer, I think Fall must be one of my favorite seasons – I love the mild, windy weather before it turns really cold, and the beautiful red, gold and orange colors on the trees.  It’s a great season for taking photographs of your child too, so in order to make the most of this beautiful time of year here’s a little checklist of some ideas for fall photos you can try to catch with your little one...

1. Standing or sitting under a fall-colored tree
2. Child’s feet in a pile of leaves
3. Holding out a fall colored leaf
4. Kicking a pile of leaves
5. Out in a street lined with fall colored trees
6. All wrapped up in a cosy sweater and hat
7. Silhouette at fall sunset
8. Your child’s initials carved into a tree or pumpkin
9. Riding bikes down a tree lined street
10. Picking up conkers
11. Throwing leaves up into the air 
12. Looking at the view through your front door
13. Looking at the fall colors through your window
14. Sitting under an apple tree with the fallen apples
15. Lying back with their head in the leaves
16. Visiting a pumpkin patch
17. Write your child’s name with fallen leaves
18. Child doing a leaf angel 
19. Biting into a shiny red apple
20. Photograph your child's fall colored artwork
21. Sitting with / on a pumpkin 
22. Playing in a golden wheat field 
23. With a basket or crate of apples, pumpkins or corn 
24. Running through a patch of dry leaves 
25. Playing out in the first frost

Hopefully this has given you ideas for photos to try for when you are out and about with your children during the fall season, and some ideas for creating a more stylized shoot - maybe by merging some of these ideas together. For example your child sitting under an apple tree, biting into an apple, with a vintage crate filled with apples by their side.  (Actually, I might try that one myself...!)

You'll notice I haven't put any Halloween suggestions in there but that's because I thought it deserved a post on all of it's own! I'll be posting this a little later on this month.

Until then, I hope these fall photo shoot ideas have inspired you moms to get your camera out this fall!
