The collage on the left has a layered, rustic look with torn paper edges and decorative elements. It includes two photos: a vertical film strip featuring a person with a pumpkin and a smiling girl, and a square photo of a couple enjoying a picnic. The collage is decorated with fall leaves and a torn paper scrap with the word "autumn" spelled out. The collage on the right is a simple, modern design with a plaid border. It features a single, large photo of two young girls sitting and smiling. Below the photo, a sticker of a pumpkin spice latte cup is next to the text "I love you a Pumpkin latte."

Fall Collage Layout Inspiration

Different autumn moments call for different layouts. Here are four styles to try based on what you’re capturing.

Grid Fall Collages

When you want to showcase multiple autumn moments with clean organization, grids work perfectly. The structured layout in our example shows how family photos can tell a cohesive story โ€“ each image gets equal attention while the seasonal decorations (like that pumpkin accent) tie everything together.

Scrapbook Style Fall Pages

For a more personal, layered approach, try the scrapbook aesthetic. This style lets you mix photos with decorative elements like film strips, handwritten labels, and seasonal stickers. Notice how “Sweater Weather” and “Fall Magic” labels add personality, while the varied photo sizes create visual interest that feels authentic and handmade.

Minimalist Autumn Layouts

Sometimes your fall photos are so beautiful they need space to shine. The minimalist aesthetic uses clean backgrounds and simple branch illustrations to frame your content without competing for attention. Perfect when you have one standout photo or want to add simple text like “Hello Autumn.”

Photo Dump Fall Styles

Capture the casual, spontaneous feel of autumn with photo dump layouts. This trendy style mimics the way we naturally collect memories โ€“ a mix of sizes, angles, and moments that feel authentic rather than posed. Check out how we framed our fall memories below with photo dump layout!

Key elements such as teacups, books, mushrooms, and seasonal phrases like "Sweater Weather" and "Fall Magic" appear across the different designs.
