Why August is the Best Time to Book Your Fall Family Photos

Fall is one of the most popular seasons for family photography — and for good reason.
 The golden light, sweater weather, and fall foliage make for the kind of images you’ll want on your walls all year.

But here’s the thing: if you wait until the leaves start to turn to book your session… you might be too late.

1. Fall Dates Go Fast

Most photographers open their fall calendar in summer, and prime weekend spots (especially in October) get booked quickly. By booking in August, you get your pick of dates and times that work best for your family’s schedule.

2. More Time to Plan

When you book early, you can:

* Choose outfits without rushing.

* Coordinate with extended family if you’d like to include extended family in your portraits.

* Plan ahead for any props or special touches you want to include.

3. Flexibility if Weather Changes

Since fall weather can be unpredictable, booking early means your photographer has more options for rescheduling if inclement weather interrupts your session.

4. Beat the Last-Minute Rush

Every year, families realize in mid-October that they need updated photos and they all try to book at once. By securing your spot now, you skip the stress and have your spot secured for your session.

5. Enjoy a Smoother Experience

When you’re not scrambling for a date or an outfit, you can actually look forward to your photoshoot — and that relaxed energy always shows in the final images.
