There’s something magical about fall in Nebraska — the golden light, the cozy layers, the way the leaves crunch underfoot. It’s the season where family memories feel even sweeter and maternity sessions glow with warmth before winter sets in.
Whether you’re planning updated family photos for holiday cards or celebrating your pregnancy with a maternity shoot, here are a few tips to make your session effortless (and fun).
1. What to Wear for Fall Photos
Neutrals & Layers: Think cream, taupe, camel, denim, or soft earthy greens. Layers photograph beautifully and give you options.
Textures Over Patterns: Knits, corduroy, and linen bring depth without being distracting. Avoid busy patterns that steal the spotlight.
Pop of Seasonal Color: A rust cardigan, deep burgundy dress, or mustard scarf adds warmth without clashing.
2. Timing is Everything
Fall light is a photographer’s dream — soft and golden, especially in the last hour before sunset. If you’re booking in November, keep in mind the earlier sunsets (we’ll likely start your session around 3–4pm).
3. Preparing Kids (and Partners 😉)
Keep it Simple: Don’t stress about perfection. The best photos often come from laughter, movement, and connection.
Snacks + Breaks: For kids, small bribes (hello, gummy bears) work wonders.
Relaxed Mindset: Your partner may not love photos, but remind them it’s about making memories together — not stiff smiles.
4. Lincoln and Omaha Nebraska Fall Family Photo Sessions Cards & Gifts
Scheduling a fall session means you’ll have your gallery ready in plenty of time for Christmas cards and thoughtful holiday gifts (yes, framed photos make tear-jerkers for grandparents).
