What to Wear for Fall Senior Photos

One of the most asked questions seniors have is what to wear for senior pictures. I have a few tips to help you choose what to wear for fall senior photos this year. These include the best colors, how to layer, choosing outfits based on location, and accessorizing for a more finished look. I hope these ideas will help you with your upcoming senior photos.

What to wear for fall senior photos: Picking colors

In any season lighter neutral colors like cream and beige look great! For clothing colors more specific to fall and its seasonal landscapes, I jewel tones like maroon, navy blue, burnt orange, emerald green, or mustard yellow are beautiful.

Layering for fall senior photos

The weather starts to get a bit chillier in the fall for senior pictures. Layering can help you stay warm. Layers like light jackets, flannels, shackets, or sweaters work well. Plus, they add more variety to your images. You can do some images with the light layers and some without.

What to wear for fall senior photos based on location

Keep the location(s) in mind when choosing your outfits. For instance, if you are in a more forested area, steer clear of wearing emerald green. This will just cause you to blend in. We want you to stand out in your senior photos!

Additionally, keep the type of location in mind when selecting outfits. A more formal dress might be more suited to a downtown/urban setting whereas a flowy sundress would look great on a beach or in a field.

Accessorize for the photoshoot

A few fall accessory ideas include cute hats, scarves, necklaces, bracelets, and rings. These add a finishing touch to your outfits, so they are photos ready!
