Of the color neg films now available what is best for autumn portraits?

I imagine early and late in the day the light is generally more like tungsten...

I believe you will find that photos taken later in the day are very blue, something like 5,000 or 6,000 Kelvin or higher. Whereas Tungsten assumes a white balance in the area of 3,200* Kelvin, more or less.

If you have a digital camera to test with, set the White Balance to "Daylight" (not "Auto") and take a series of photos. Put it on a tripod, select a medium aperture such as f/4 or f/5.6 and let the camera set the shutter speed. Later, compare the results.

Forget the negative film and go right to Velveta, then scan it and push the Saturation slider to 11.

I've never shot an image on cheese before.

Velveta is pretend cheese.

The stuff is terrible, even my dog won't eat it, and he loves cheese.
