Ready to take great Fall photos? Here are some tips from Scrapbook trends newsletter.
1. Set your camera to landscape mode. If the automatic flash triggers, it will wash out all the beautiful color. Set your camera on a tripod if the shutter speed needs to be lower.
2. Morning or evening will provide the best possible light, especially if there are people in your photo. Bright daylight tends to cast heavy shadows across faces. Overcast days are also great!
3. Use the colors as a background – use a tangled old tree, a wooden fence or wandering stream as your main subject and let the fall colors be a beautiful backdrop.
4. Get close to the leaves – instead of trying to capture the entire landscape, find one vibrantly colored tree and photograph the leaves up close.
5. If you're taking family pictures in the fall leaves, dress for the occasion. Warm scarves and knitted hats give the impression of a crisp autumn day. Choose warm neutrals (creams, browns and tans) so that clothing doesn't compete with the vibrant background.
