Fall Engagement Photo Ideas
If you are here looking for cute fall engagement photos to help you get some ideas and creativity flowing for your own engagement photos, then you have come to the right place.
Now that you are engaged and you are rocking that stunning engagement ring, the next natural step is to take those engagement photos.
Engagement photos are a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to capture the sense of joy and excitement before marrying the one you love.
With all the craziness (and cost!) of wedding planning, it’s a great idea to schedule an engagement session to briefly take your mind off the stress.
Your engagement is one of the most exciting parts when it comes to wedding planning, and you should absolutely take the opportunity to document it with a fall photo session if you love the fall season.
I personally love the fall season.
Think pumpkin spice, cute sweaters and warm cozy blankets!
It also reminds me that the holiday season is almost upon us and if you plan to have a fall engagement photo session then you better book it with your photographer right away.
Fond memories of the fall often come back to remind me of this beautiful season when the first leaves start to change colour and everyone starts to plan and make at least one trip to the pumpkin patch.
If you plan on announcing your engagement, what better way to do that with some cute fall engagement photos?
You can then share these on social media such as Facebook for your friends and family to see, or use them on your save-the-date invitation cards.
So whip out that cute outfit and plan out your fall photo shoot.

Fall couple photoshoot outfit ideas
You might be super excited about getting glammed up in those fall colours and capturing the perfect engagement photos.
But you also want to ensure that you are dressed correctly.
If you are looking for some fall engagement outfit inspiration, look no further.
We have you covered.
So what do you wear to an engagement shoot in the fall?
If you are quickly approaching your fall engagement session and are looking around in your closet to find the right outfit, keep reading.
Selecting what to wear for your fall engagement photo session is a big decision.
A lot of it will depend on your style and or theme you might have in mind.
Let me start by saying that the best colours to wear for engagement photos in fall are brown and black.
Neutral shades like black, white, and brown always photograph well, especially in the fall.
A few other fall colour outfit combinations I love are emerald + yellow +rust, maroons + navy blues + khaki, denim + mustard + white and maroon + brown.
Here is what to consider when picking your fall outfits:
- Go for burgundy, purple, black or brown outfits
- Pair this with some ivory
- Jeans can work well too
- Don’t be afraid to wear patterns
- Try wearing a cute hat
- A sweater or cardigan is great for cool weather
- You can never go wrong with a blanket scarf
- A second outfit + more layers won’t hurt
Last but not least, be comfortable.
