Family Photos at Grapevine Lake | DFW Family Photographer

I’ll never get tired of sessions on the lake—and this family photo session at Grapevine Lake was extra special. Around this same time last year, I photographed this family’s maternity announcement, and getting to see them again, now with their little one in their arms, felt like such a full-circle moment.

This is one of the things I love most about being a family photographer: building relationships and getting to document multiple chapters of a family’s story. From anticipation to arrival, and everything that comes after—it’s incredibly meaningful to be invited back.

Grapevine Lake is a beautiful location for family photos. The water, open space, and natural light create a relaxed setting that feels timeless and peaceful. It’s perfect for families who want a more organic, outdoor feel while still staying close to the DFW area.

This session was laid-back, joyful, and full of those quiet in-between moments that make family photos so special. Seeing how much love and growth can happen in just one year is always a reminder of how quickly time moves—and why it’s so important to document these seasons while you can.

If you’re looking for a DFW family photographer and love the idea of photos by the water, Grapevine Lake is always a great choice. Whether it’s your first session or your fifth, I’d love to help you capture this season of life.
