A handsfree autonomous umbrella assembly for shielding a user from the elements includes an umbrella and a drone module. The umbrella comprises a shaft and a frame, which has a canopy engaged thereto. The frame is engaged to a first end of the shaft and can be selectively positioned in a collapsed configuration and a deployed configuration, wherein the frame has a concave face and a convex face. The shaft extends from the concave face. The drone module is engaged to the shaft and receives commands to selectively provide directional thrust. A control unit transmits commands to the drone module, enabling the drone module to track the control unit. The control unit is positioned to command the drone module to maintain a relative position above a user who possesses the control unit. The canopy thus shields the user from the elements.
