October 21-22, 2025.
The Goddard School of New Albany
Your background color this season…
Our Pecan Pie backdrop is cozy, warm, and full of charm — a lighter take on our Mocha background that feels like a hug in photo form. Its warm brown glow flatters every skin tone and makes rich, autumn-inspired colors look absolutely delicious.
Pecan Pie
Naturally Timeless
✅ What to Wear with Pecan Pie
Rich Browns: Chocolate, espresso, and chestnut tones pop beautifully against the lighter background.
Earthy Hues: Rust, terracotta, camel, mustard, and olive add warmth and seasonal depth.
Cool Contrasts: Denim and chambray provide a perfect balance to the light-but-warm tones.
Soft Accents: Dusty rose, muted peach, or deep blush add a gentle sweetness.
Textures that Shine: Knit sweaters, corduroy, linen, and cotton gauze add that cozy, classic feel.
🚫 What Not to Wear
Deep Creams & Ivories: Too similar to the backdrop and may blend in.
Neon or Bright Colors: Pull focus away from your child’s sweet expression.
Loud Prints or Large Logos: Keep it simple for a timeless, polished look.
👟 Finishing Touches
Footwear in brown, tan, or muted tones keeps the look soft and natural.
Accessories like headbands, suspenders, or a single bright floral stem (like a sunflower!) add a charming touch.
✨ Pro Tip: Pecan Pie shines with rich, natural colors and soft textures. Think cozy sweaters, warm layers, and tones that make you crave fall weather — it’s the perfect recipe for portraits that feel as sweet and timeless as your little one.

FAQs
When is picture day?
Your child’s picture day date is listed at the top of this page. If your school has two Picture Day dates, please check with your teacher to confirm which day your child is scheduled for.
How will I receive my order?
Orders placed during the two-week group ordering window will be delivered to the school together at no cost. Any orders placed after that window will ship directly to your home and you’ll be charged a small shipping fee.
What should my child wear?
We’ve created a Wardrobe Guide just for this season’s background color. You’ll find suggestions on what colors and styles look best—and what to avoid—to help your child shine on Picture Day.
What if I miss the group ordering window?
No worries! You’ll miss out on premiere pricing and free shipping to the school, but you can still place an order at any time.
Late orders ship directly to your home instead of being delivered to the school and incur a small shipping fee.
When will the gallery be ready?
Galleries are typically published within 7 days after Picture Day. We’ll send a text and/or email as soon as they’re live.
What if I can’t find my child’s gallery?
Use the “find my gallery” link at the top of the page to look up your child’s gallery access code. Remember you need to use the name the school has on file for your child. For example, if they’re registered as “Samantha,” typing “Sammy” will result in no found galleries.
If you still can’t find your gallery, don’t hesitate to reach out to our team for help. Email studio@colorpopportraits.com or text 330-203-1135 and we’ll help you find everything you need!
