Hiking at McKinney Falls for Senior Photos
This Class of 2023 High School Senior (and future University of Texas Longhorn) chose McKinney Falls State Park for his location.
He used to hike there a lot as a kid with his grandparents. In fact, his mom even brought his baby hiking boots to show the passage of time.
Please check out some of my favorite images from his portrait session below and contact me if you’d like to book your own photo session.
1. What prompted you to have this photo session? Jake’s a senior, and it was time to schedule his senior pictures.
2. How did you choose your location for your session? We had a few options we were considering, and you were super helpful in throwing out some ideas. Ultimately, Jake decided on McKinney Falls because he’s spent so much time there over the years, and it’s such a gorgeous location.
3. What advice would you give to others planning a similar photo session? For senior pictures in general, consider a location that’s meaningful to your senior, and if you’re stuck, Stephanie has a lot of ideas – take advantage of her creativity! For McKinney Falls specifically, it’s important to consider where wardrobe changes will happen. It’s a bit of a trek back to the car, so consider how you’d like to manage that.
4. Anything else you’d like to add? Ever since Stephanie shot our family holiday pictures 10+ years ago, I’ve known I was going to ask her to shoot Jake’s senior pictures. I appreciated how easy it was to book the session, as well as the timely updates and reminders about the session. Stephanie was fantastic during the shoot, too, creating a relaxed atmosphere that enabled Jake’s to shine.
