Pease Park Senior Photos | Austin Senior Photographer
As an Austin senior photographer, I love capturing portraits at iconic locations like Pease Park.
This session for an Anderson High School senior started in Live Oak Meadow, where towering oaks and Shoal Creek create a stunning backdrop. We ended at Kingsbury Commons, known for its Treehouse and Tudor Cottage. Pease Park offers the perfect blend of natural beauty and architectural charm.

Tips for Senior Photo Sessions at Pease Park:
- For more of a natural background, the Live Oak Meadow has lots of tall oak trees, some with beautiful hanging Spanish Moss, as well as easy access to explore Shoal Creek. Certain times of year the water levels may be very low.
- If you want to include some architectural elements, Kingsbury Commons has the two-story metal and rope Treehouse. It aslo has a nature play area and the charming Tudor Cottage.
- In my experience, it’s been easier to find parking by the Live Oak Meadow than the Kingsbury Commons (and it’s about a 7-10 minute walk between both spots so make sure you’re wearing or bringing comfortable shoes)
- Check the Park’s Events Page to make sure there isn’t a conflict during your session
- The Park gets crowded on weekends so try to pick off times to visit for your photo session. (FYI: this spot is very popular for all types of photo sessions, so don’t be surprised to see other photographer’s working there)
- The park has restrooms you can use for Senior session outfit changes

We had the pleasure of working with Stephanie, and the entire experience was fantastic! She was communicative and provided clear directions before, during, and after the shoot, which made the process smooth and stress-free. Stephanie’s professionalism, along with her warm and approachable demeanor, made us feel comfortable from start to finish. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a seamless and enjoyable experience! (Mom)
