This spot had caught my eye at the very end of October last year. I’m so glad I took advantage of it in early November because just a week or two later, the color was gone. The leaves had fallen, and the magic had passed.

Why Mid-October to Mid-November Is Prime Time for Fall Photos

🍁 Peak leaf color in North Carolina typically only lasts 3–4 weeks.
🍁 The window can shift each year depending on weather, but the sweet spot is generally mid-October to mid-November.
🍁 Waiting too long risks bare branches and chilly temps—and nobody wants that in their family photo!

Thinking About Fall Photos? Now’s the Time to Book!

If you want those golden leaves, cozy vibes, and the perfect blend of autumn color—it’s better to book now than wait. My schedule fills quickly for October and early November, and once the leaves are gone, they’re gone until next year.

📅 Grab your spot for a fall family session before they’re all gone!
