A fun fact you probably don’t know about me — I was a professional photographer in Atlanta for 15 years! 📸 Even though I focused on newborns, I was always helping families style their fall portraits. Here’s the secret: the magic happens when you coordinate, not match. Start with mom’s outfit (she sets the tone), build the family around her colors, and mix textures + layers for depth. Think nubby knits, ribbed tights, suede shoes, and cozy plaids. 🍂 Avoid all-matching looks — they’re cute for a card, but mixing complementary tones creates timeless photos and beautiful gallery walls. Save this for your fall family photo outfit inspo and shop coordinated looks for the whole crew at jcathell.com. ✨ FallFamilyPhotos FamilyPhotoOutfits FallStyleGuide FamilyPhotoInspo FallFamilyPortraits WhatToWear CoordinatedStyle FamilyPhotography FallOutfits JCathellStyle Fall outfit, fall look, family photos LTKFamily LTKMens LTKOver40
