Photographers can’t wait for the calendar to flip to fall in New England. Here are the top reasons why photographers love to photograph in the Autumn season.
Foliage
No doubt the number one reason photographers love Autumn in New England is the brilliant display of colors put on by nature each year. Trees explode with reds, orange, yellows and browns.
The fall color show is a great excuse for photographers to get out in nature and the display happens every where so there are local spots as well as distant spots to explore.
Harvest Time
Farms in New England really shine in the fall season as some of the best New England crops are harvested. Colorful pumpkins, corn mazes and apple picking provide great photo opportunities each fall.
Halloween
Halloween decorations, haunted houses and cute kids in costumes provide a wonderful festive time to photograph. Zombie walks, pumpkin festivals and even witch conventions in Salem, Ma provide all kinds of photo opportunities.
Fewer Crowds
Fall means back to school time which means no more family vacations and time to get back to work. For the landscape photographer, Autumn means less crowds on the roads and at special locations. Fall is the perfect travel time for empty nesters, retirees and photographers who can break away to explore – crowd free.
Special Events
Fall often means special events time. The heat of the summer is gone and out come the car shows, reenactments, country fairs, food related events and even brewery tours.
