One of the most common questions I get asked is…What is the best season to have my senior photos taken?
There are a few things to consider when determining what season is best for you:
- Your favorite season that fits your personality.
- What season’s clothing do you like to wear the most.
- Your schedule and what season works best for everything you have going on.
- If you are sending out graduation party invitations or announcements and when.
Think about all of those things above and then read below to see my thoughts on why a fall session may be for you.
FALL: School has started and you are getting the hang of being a senior! Fun school activities such as homecoming, football games, other fall sports and more are in full swing! The days are getting shorter and there is a crisp in the air at night. October & November in New Mexico can still be warm which allows you to get a variety in your shoot by bringing an outfit that is more geared toward summer and an outfit that is more fall. Two season looks in one session!
By October, the temperatures are cooling off and the fall colors have officially arrived. If you love the orange, gold, red and green of fall leaves and want that look for the background of your photos, then fall would be the perfect time to book your senior session. Think golden light, rustic settings and vibrant colors as your backdrop.
And what about fall clothes?! If you love the idea of cozy sweaters, jeans and boots paired with hats then this is the perfect season for you. Texture and layers are key elements to fall looks and look amazing in photos!
If fall sounds like the perfect time for you, be sure to book your senior session the summer before your senior year so you can get an upper hand on available dates for your senior session. Fall is a very desired season so it books up rather quickly. In order to capture true fall foliage you should book late October – Early November that is truly the best time to capture all the pretty colors at their peek.
