Leaves changing color, cooler temperatures and finally pulling out our cozy fall jackets — time to take pictures! Here are some must see places around Lincoln that are beautiful on their own, but also make the picture-perfect backdrop for fall photos.
Roca Berry Farm
Located just about 20 minutes from City Campus, Roca Berry Farms is filled with all kinds of fall festivities. Swings, corn mazes, harvest barns and so much more — there are plenty of photo-worthy spots for you and your friends.
City & East Campus
It’s no secret that both City and East Campus are Instagram-worthy 12 months out of the year, but campus only gets more beautiful during the fall months. Some of the most stunning fall colors highlight the Nebraska Union and the Arboretum on East Campus. Whip out your phone the next time you pass these fall colors — you won’t want to miss it!
Sunken Gardens
The Sunken Gardens are a fan favorite year-round, but the yellows, reds and deep auburn hold a special place in our hearts during autumn. Whether you are looking for a fun fall photoshoot with a group of friends, a new professional headshot or a landscape shot for your new background, Sunken Gardens has it all.
Pioneers Park
Pioneers Park is the perfect place to not only take a few photos, but also enjoy the fresh autumn air with a picnic, yard games or a stroll. Next time you are looking to crack open a new book or get some homework done, consider taking in the fall foliage at Pioneers Park.
Vala’s Pumpkin Patch
Nothing screams fall in Nebraska quite like Vala’s Pumpkin Patch! From apple cider donuts and a warm cup of coffee to hayrack rides and the spook shed, there’s a little bit of everything for everyone. Plus — the fall colors, pumpkins and caramel apple in hand makes for a social media-worthy post. Make the trip, you won’t be disappointed.
