Mayfield Park | A Family Photo Session Location

Tucked away in the heart of Austin, Mayfield Park is like stepping into a storybook. With its classis stone pathways, serene lily ponds, and vibrant gardens, it’s a dream backdrop for capturing family memories. The historic Mayfield–Gutsch Estate, with its quaint 1870s cottage, adds a timeless charm to the park. The surrounding gardens, developed in the early 20th century, provide a lush and colorful setting that’s perfect for your next family photo session in Austin.

Peacocks and Ponds and Paths, Oh My!

One of the park’s most popular features is its free-roaming peacocks. These majestic birds add a whimsical touch to any photo session. The park also boasts beautiful lily-covered ponds and winding trails that offer a variety of scenic spots for photos. While I can’t guarantee that you’ll see peacocks or have them join in on your photo session, I can promise that this is a location that you’ll love as much as I do!
