Question: What are the best colors to wear for photos taken outside in the fall!?
I will be having photos taken this week with the beautiful fall folliage as my backdrop!. I have dark brown hair and medium skin tone!. I was thinking of khaki pants and an off white sweater so I stand out from the trees but still have some contrast!. Any professional opinions!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think that would look nice but I would consider drawing from the surrounding colors!. Do you want your face to stand out or your outfit!? Using natural, earthy colors would look best!. Take colors from the trees, the yellows, browns, reds etc!. This way the clothes and background compliment eachother and the eye goes right to the face when you look at the picture!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think the white sweater is a great idea, but perhaps tweak it a bit!.

Instead of white, you could maybe do a cream sweater with darker brown pants!. Cream and dark brown are autumn colors, but they will still make you stand out, whereas white and light khaki are more of spring colors!.

also if you have brown hair,the brown pants will accent with your hair nicely!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I think that would look pretty sharp!

Maybe instead of the khaki pants, go with simple jeans!.!.!.that way you'll still stand out, but not JUMP out!.

Or, wear a nice jean jacket with the sweater and khakis!. Again, you'd still stand out, but not literally JUMP out against the darker colors!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Use fill flash to make yourself stand out a little over the contrasting colors too!.

You won't regret having that little sparkle in your eyes!.
