Our Favorite Fall Themes to Capture Your Memories

If you're like most people, you love using custom photo books to relive your memories. Whether you want to capture special occasions, milestone events, or seasonal activities, there's a fall photo book for you. Check out our favorite fall themes or design your own!

Thankful & Grateful

A classically cozy theme, Thankful & Grateful features green checkers, woodgrain patterns, autumn leaves, and plenty of gratitude stickers, sayings, and quotes to help you express yourself. This book is all about warm tones and fall colors, making it the perfect choice for including professional photos and candid snapshots.

Choose a good mix of full-page photos and collages to completely customize your book. The best part about this theme is that there's space for you to include favorite fall recipes, special Thanksgiving memories, and back-to-school photos - you can cover the entire autumn season on these elegantly designed pages.

Pro Tip: Work in chronological order from the beginning of fall to the end with this template. You can start in September and continue past Thanksgiving to complete your walk down memory lane.

Autumn Memories by Photo Play Paper

Autumn Memories by Photo Play Paper is filled with modern touches that make reliving your fall memories easier. Stick with the adorable animal graphics, pumpkin stickers and designs, and gorgeous patterns that are built into the template, or swap them out for your own to create a completely customized book. Add in great quotes like F. Scott Fitzgerald's "Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall" or complement your photos with quotes from family and friends who appear in them.

This template is full of great collages and full-page photo grids that you can rearrange with Mixbook's simple drag-and-drop tool. Choose your favorite backgrounds from the bevy of options, including whimsical leaves and fall patterns, country-style whitewashed wood, and elegant stripes in warm fall colors.

Pro Tip: This theme is really ideal for indoor and outdoor photos. Choose page backgrounds that match the "mood" of each picture you have to enhance the way your pictures look.

Gratitude Year in Review

If you're looking for the perfect place to display all your Insta-worthy snaps and professional family photos, the Gratitude Year in Review photo book may be the perfect choice. Simplicity rules in this theme so all the focus is on your photos, and there's plenty of space to include captions and stories. Choose backgrounds from a wide range of fall colors, including several neutral and bold colors. Add stickers, quotes and text boxes to really make it your own.

Like some of Mixbook's other fall photo book templates, this one has a specific layout where you can include family recipes (complete with instructions). Our favorite idea: add your family's most treasured recipes, and on the opposite page, share photos of you, your family, and your friends preparing it. Don't forget the finished product! Not into recipes? That's okay - you can mix-and-match pages within the template or create your own style.

Pro Tip: Dedicate a page or two in this fall-themed photo book to handwritten notes from family and friends. Ask everyone to contribute and take photos of what they write.

Happy Halloween by Black Lamb Studio

Gather all your Halloween memories in one convenient photo book. Whether you choose this year's festivities or you're compiling photos from previous years, Happy Halloween by Black Lamb Studio may be the ideal way to celebrate the past. The possibilities are endless with this Halloween-themed photo book; you can choose collages, grids, or full-page photos to customize your memories. Packed with family-friendly Halloween backgrounds featuring ghosts, pumpkins, candy, and more, it's easy to personalize your book.

This book template is ready to go as-is, or you can customize it further with stickers, fun Halloween fonts, and unique page layouts. Choose all the right accents to go with professional family photos, candid pumpkin-carving shots, and your Halloween decor.

Pro Tip: Figure out what to include in a fall photo book before you start planning. You may want to create multiple books to highlight big events.
