I love this beautiful time of year!  With the leaves changing from green to golden yellows and oranges, there is a certain elegance that is portrayed in the scenery of our everyday lives.  Not only are these colours beautiful to look at, but they also make stunning backdrops for family photos.  Some of the best Christmas cards I have received were ones that included a family picture that was taken during the fall.

Need some inspiration for where you can take fall family photos?  Here are five location ideas for you to consider.  A professional photographer can help you find the perfect location!

In a park – Find a park with trees.  The leaves can still be attached or they can be on the ground; either way, the photos look great!  It makes it a lot more fun for kids when there are leaves to play in!

In a field – Wide open, grassy spaces can be great for group shots, or action shots, if the kids enjoy running around.  Corn fields are also fun locations to shoot fall photos!

By a river – The reflections of nature in the water create a beautiful backdrop for your photos.

At a farm – Live in the country or know someone who does?  Opt to take your photos in the country by a big red barn, with some horses, or simply along a wooden fence.

At a pumpkin patch – Some of the cutest photos are found taken at a pumpkin patch.
