How to Pose at a Pumpkin Patch – Pumpkin Patch photo shoot – Emma’s Edition

It’s October which means it’s officially pumpkin patch season! Going to a pumpkin patch is one of my favorite fall activities to do in the Pacific Northwest. I swear almost everyone I know stops by a pumpkin patch at least once during October.

My friend Maddy and I stopped by Craven Farms a few weekends ago and we had so much fun! As we were walking through the pumpkin patch trying to figure out how to pose, it dawned on me that I should probably write a blog post on how to pose at the pumpkin patch. We can’t be the only bloggers/girls out there trying to figure out how to pose at a pumpkin patch right?

As a blogger, I’m always looking for new ways to pose with
flowers, foods, and even pumpkins. If you’re heading to a pumpkin patch this
season and want a few posing ideas, this blog post is for you!

How to Pose at a Pumpkin Patch: 8 posing ideas you can try:

1. Sit on the pumpkins

Sitting on the pumpkins is one of the easiest poses you can do. You can sit down by yourself or sit with a friend. It can get pretty rainy in the Northwest so I recommend making sure the pumpkins are dry or at least wipe them dry before you sit.

2. Hold the mini pumpkins to cover one eye

Okay I know this pose sounds absolutely ridiculous. But this
is one of my go to poses when I pose with food and dessert. I have no idea why
this works but this pose always turns out cute!

3. Hold the pumpkins up with you friend

You’re probably at the pumpkin patch to pick out a pumpkin. So when you do find your pumpkin, hold your pumpkin up for a photo.

When it doubt, walk it out. Walking through the field of
pumpkins will also feel natural. Just make sure you watch your step because
there are vines and pumpkins everywhere!

6. Grab an apple cider

If you aren’t sure what to do with your hands in photos, I recommend grabbing a prop like an apple cider. Personally, Maddy and I were just cold and wanted a warm drink. The pumpkin patches around the Seattle area usually have drinks and light snacks you can pick up during your visit.

If you’re looking to mix up your standing and sitting shots,
I recommend bringing one boot up on a pumpkin. This pose will allow you to play
around with leaning forward, backward, and towards the camera.
