Personalize your Family Photos | Austin Family Photographer
Want a family photo session that captures this unique moment in time? Then bring props that showcase your family’s interests, skills and hobbies right now.
Take a look at some examples below. And here’s a list of ideas to get your started:
- sporting equipment
- bouquet of colorful flowers
- bubbles to blow
- favorite stuffed animal
- toy your kid is obsessed with now
- kite to fly
- musical instrument
- game your family plays together
- balloons
- books to read together
- confetti or streamers to celebrate a milestone number
- sentimental items
- holiday seasonal items (ex. pumpkin, ornament, etc.)
- your pet (not a prop, but something you love and can bring)

Stephanie Friedman first picked up a camera in high school, went on to study photojournalism in college (Hook ‘Em), then worked as a photo researcher in educational publishing for over 20 years.
During all that, she’s been photographing Families and Seniors for the last 10 years. You can count on her to be communicative and organized before your session. She’ll help you feel relaxed and confident during your session. And you’ll have a smile on your face after your session once you see your new photos.
