Session Locations

 
 

Choosing the best location for your family…

When choosing a location for your session, you’ll want to consider the ages and needs of each family member. Some locations offer room to play with lots of walking and movement while others offer urban settings with less nature. Kindly remember to have your family members use the restroom PRIOR to your session, as many of these locations do not have facilities nearby.

 
 

Parker Rose Garden

Parker, Texas.

Parker Rose Garden (with NO ROSES!) offers sprawling fields, wide open golden sunsets and a historic wooden barn as a backdrop. The terrain is flat with some walking required.

*Gravel parking lot and trails, pets welcome.

Prairie Creek Park

Richardson, Texas.

Nestled along a creek, this location is fairly close to street parking and has grassy areas alongside the rocky creek bed. There is a contemporary bridge a short walk away with some walking in the grass.

*Flooding is common with heavy rainfall and creek levels vary seasonally. Pets welcome.

Arbor Hills Nature Preserve

Plano, Texas.

With over 40 acres of sprawling nature, this is a wonderful location for the whole family ready to explore. It offers plenty of shaded tree areas, open grassy fields and hiking trails (concrete and dirt). While this location requires a good amount of walking, it also offers a widest variety in backdrops during your session. It is wonderful for explorers of all ages.

*Pet friendly, lots of exploring and walking!

Maxwell Creek | Sunset

Murphy, Texas

Nestled in a neighborhood there are paved trails, a variety of trees and a quick sunset. This location is minimal walking and easy to get to, pets welcome. A long bridge is a short 2 minute drive away, further down the creek.

Maxwell Creek | Sunrise

Located near a parking lot, this trail and nature area is a great corner of nature nestled in the city. There are trails that lead into the woods if you are feeling adventurous (with dry weather conditions, can get very muddy). We can also venture to a bridge a short walk away.

Private Property

Maybe your own property provides an abundance of natural light, plenty of room to move about and is deeply meaningful to your family.

Retzer Nature Center

Waukesha, Wisconsin.

With sky high pines and hilly hiking trails, this place has a little spot for every nature lover. The parking lot is within close proximity to the piney forest and open grassy areas.

Mapleton Barn

Oconomowoc, Wisconsin.

This gorgeous barn has been brought back to life and requires little walking. Parking is on location. Dress in layers during cooler seasons as there is no heat or winterized plumbing in the barn.
