austin family photographer

authentic, lifestyle family photography for every milestone

Those everyday moments with your family are layered with meaning, shaped by laughter, closeness, and the love that grows deeper with time.

As your Austin, TX family photographer, my experience is rooted in capturing those honest, beautiful interactions with your loved ones— the way your child's hand reaches for yours, shared glances, and the connection that tells your family’s story just as it is.

Serving families in Austin, TX and nearby communities

Lydia was an absolute joy to work with from start to finish! Her planning session was incredibly helpful in bringing our vision to life—she took the time to understand exactly what we were hoping for. She also offered thoughtful guidance on wardrobe and helped us consider the final images, sizing, and how they'd work in our space. And the photos? WOW. Each one is a true work of art. We can’t wait to get them up on our walls.

Lydia was amazing! My two young kids were pretty difficult and yet she still worked absolute magic and captured beautiful photos of our family! She is so kind and patient and helped us tremendously with posing. 

She was absolutely amazing to work with! She arrived right on time, kept up great communication from start to finish, and even sent helpful guidance beforehand so we knew exactly how to prep. During the session she was so patient with our kids and made everyone feel comfortable, especially those of us who don’t know how to pose.

Lydia was wonderful. She was accommodating as we had to reschedule our photo session due to illness. She not only looked for a place to take our pictures the first time, but also keep us posted on other location options as the weather changed. Have only received a sneak peek of the photos thus far, but already really excited to see how they all turned out.

My photography style strives on authenticity. As your Austin, TX family photographer, I rely on simple and natural aesthetics to ensure your family's true beauty remains at the heart of every image. You can expect photographs that are light, airy, and filled with warmth, focused on bringing out the real love that surrounds your family. 

Through fine art portraiture, I create moments that are meant to be more than mere images on a screen. Together we'll build something lasting with beautiful photo artwork you'll be proud to pass down to your children for generations to come.

frequently asked questions

what austin families often ask about their family pictures

when should we book our family session?

I recommend reaching out 3-4 weeks prior to your desired session date to ensure availability. Simply fill out my contact form, and I'll be in touch!

what should we wear for family photos in austin?

As a mom, I know how busy life can be and finding coordinated outfits for the whole family can be quite the marathon. You're in luck! I provide all my clients with a complimentary style guide with plenty of tips and outfit inspiration for every member of the family.

do you offer extended family sessions?

Yes. My regular family sessions include up to 10 people. If you have a larger family to photograph, there will be a $25 fee for each additional person participating in the session. This covers the additional time needed to ensure we capture all of your favorite images.
