Fall photos can be very powerful due to the magical combination of colors found in this season; bright blue skies, deep oranges and electric green grass.

We recommend taking photos from up close (using macro lenses in some occasions) in order to take advantage of these beautiful mix of colors. Shooting at leaves from a proximity can show their amazing texture and color range! Leaves can be used in portraits, having them close to faces, and people stepping on piles of them too.

The wetness of the leaves as well as their dryness can communicate a lot of feeling in just a single shot. Try to shoot in a cold and wet day and you will see how many feelings you can get out of that one single photo!

When shooting try to take a good luck of your surroundings and you will see all the magical elements that you can incorporate in your photographies.
