Last year we had an urban background for their yearly photo session, so this time around we headed to Mills Pond in Wells Branch for some nature and fall colors.

Mill Pond has lots of great locations if you’re looking for a setting up north (near Wells Branch) for your own family photo session.

Features include a small wooden boardwalk (where you may be asked to name as many different Boy Scout Popcorn flavors hot-potato-style until you run out):

Great trees:

Plenty of places to sit and snuggle:

Happy exploring!


I hope you’ve enjoyed these sneak peeks from their family photo session at Mills Pond. To see all the (password protected) images, visit their gallery HERE.

1. How do you know Stephanie Friedman Photography?

We have known Stephanie for about 10 years and met through a mutual friend. She’s been taking our family photos since our first child was born.

2. What was your favorite part of your photo session?

All the tricks Stephanie had up her sleeve to coax some wonderful smiles out of the kids!

3. What advice would you give to other families planning a photo session?

Make sure your kids have had an opportunity to run around before the photo shoot (otherwise, they may do it during the photo shoot)!

4. Anything else you’d like to add?

Stephanie is a delight to work with, and is so flexible and open to whatever comes up. At the same time, she is very prepared and has lots of great ideas to make things fun and to capture some wonderful moments.
