Fall Photos, What to Wear.

As the crisp air of fall rolls in, it’s the perfect time to book your portrait session! The vibrant colors and cozy atmosphere make it a beautiful season for capturing special moments. But one question that always comes up before a session is, “What should I wear?” At Braly Studio, we understand how crucial your outfit choices are in creating stunning, timeless portraits. That’s why we offer personalized, one-on-one styling guidance and even provide access to our carefully curated client closet to make your session stress-free and enjoyable.

Here are some tips to help you dress for your fall portrait session:

1. Embrace Fall Colors

The fall season brings with it a warm and rich color palette, and your wardrobe should reflect that. Think earthy tones like deep burgundy, mustard yellow, burnt orange, forest green, and soft neutrals such as cream and beige. These colors not only complement the natural autumn backdrop but also create a cozy, inviting look in your photos.

2. Layer Up for Texture

Fall is all about layers! Incorporating different textures adds depth and visual interest to your photos. Consider pairing a knit sweater with a scarf, or layering a flannel over a simple top. Jackets, cardigans, and vests can also work well without overpowering your outfit. Layers give you flexibility and create a polished, put-together look.

3. Avoid Distracting Patterns

While prints can be fun, it’s important to avoid anything too busy or overwhelming. Subtle patterns like plaid or florals are great, but steer clear of loud prints that can take the focus away from your face. The goal is to keep the attention on you while still showing off your style.

4. Coordinate, Don’t Match

If you're taking photos with a group or family, try to coordinate your outfits rather than matching exactly. Choose a color palette, and let each person’s outfit complement the others. This creates a more cohesive look while still allowing each individual’s personality to shine.

5. Comfort is Key

While style is important, comfort should never be overlooked. You want to feel confident and relaxed during your session, and that starts with choosing clothes that fit well and make you feel good. Stiff or uncomfortable clothing can affect your mood and body language, so opt for something you can move in easily.

6. Don’t Forget the Footwear

Your shoes may not always be in the spotlight, but they can make or break your look! Choose shoes that fit the fall aesthetic—think boots, loafers, or ankle booties. Make sure they are comfortable, especially if your session involves walking outdoors.

7. Accessorize Thoughtfully

Accessories can elevate your outfit, but be careful not to overdo it. Simple jewelry, a cozy scarf, or a stylish hat can add a personal touch to your look without overwhelming the image. If you’re not sure how to accessorize, don’t worry—Braly Studio’s one-on-one styling guidance will help you pick the perfect pieces.
