Your 42nd weekly challenge is a seasonal photo assignment. You can’t take a bad picture in a pumpkin patch. Good assignment, right? Find a pumpkin patch. Go. Take pictures.

Use hay as a background, too.

It is so true, I love going to the pumpkin patch, I guess it is the hue of orange, it is the best lighting. This year I put my youngest in this adorable fall outfit that my oldest daughter wore in her pumpkin patch pictures when she was a toddler, and made a trip to the mountains to find a pumpkin patch. It is my favorite pictures! Even I look good in a pumpkin patch :)

Great suggestion! We went to the pumpkin patch last week and got some of my favorite pictures of the Wee One.

on the list! head to the half moon bay pumpkin patch and prop my kids up on stacks of hay or pumpkins bigger than their head.

Pumpkin patches are the best! I am too cheap to go to any of the real ones that cost money to get into because they have the llamas and hayrides and whatnot, so I just went to the farmers’ market! We brought the Bumbo. Check out our pictures. Feel free to steal the idea.

What a great site. I love the photography tips and assignments, several of which I’ve already employed with my new daughter. I recently posted about 8 photo ideas for new parents and thought your readers would also enjoy. I’m currently working on a follow-up article that includes our pumpkin picture, so be sure to check it out. Keep up the great work! http://www.ordinaryparent.com/2011/11/08/8-photo-ideas-for-new-parents/
