I took the family location scouting on Main Street in Round Rock, TX. Max was full of ideas for poses – from the serious to the silly. On that same set of gray stairs he kept telling me – “you go here and I’ll be here” – and “now you go there – and I’ll look here” and so on. Makes my mama photographer heart proud. That and when I asked “What time is it? ” and the boys sang out “Golden hour!” as we headed back to the car.
If you’d also like to head downtown in Round Rock and eat ice cream/candy as part of your family photos, let me know 🙂

“Do you know of a good spot where we could take Halloween photos when my daughter dresses up like Wonder Woman this year?”
(so glad you asked)
This past weekend, I took my own superhero downtown to visit three spots: Seaholm Power Plant, Austin City Hall and the Long Center.
If you are wanting your own urban backdrop, I recommend all three.

Trying to decide where to have your family photo session take place? Austin has lots of wonderful urban and natural settings – but if you want one that combines both – try the Mueller Development. There’s a new colorful walkway of umbrellas, loads of brightly painted walls as well as a scenic pond lined by trees.










Let’s Go!

We took the boys to Circle C Ranch for some location scouting/hiking. Glad to see some end-of-season wildflowers were still hanging around. There was no water in Slaughter Creek – so we got to explore the creek bed, found a snake skin in a tree and climbed in, out and all over the place.

Saturday Night.
Golden Hour.
Location scouting with the boys.
I have a few family photo sessions coming up at Champion Park on the Brushy Creek Trail in Cedar Park so we went exploring there once again. There was running and stick collecting and climbing (the usual). I had a hard time narrowing down what to share – so it’s a larger than usual lightbox of images. Let’s all go play in the light!

Katherine Fleischer Park in Wells Branch is home to the historical Gault Homestead. It is also surrounded by soccer fields, running trails and a playground.
The boys enjoyed exploring and peaking in all the homestead windows. And they really didn’t want to come out of that green playhouse.
