If your blog post's featured images are fairly low resolution, you may want to delete the top image canvas. Your blog will still look gorgeous, but the top banner section looks best when you upload an image that's 2500px on the long side. You can also use our fave TinyJpeg to make them small so your blog posts still load quickly!

Engagement Session at Mckinney Falls State Park Austin Texas

I can’t get over how beautiful this engagement session at Mckinney park in Austin is! Leslie and Patrick are the sweetest couple, I am so happy that I not only got to capture their engagement photos but I get to photograph their wedding in December. Couples like these two are what remind me of why I love my job so much. The way they look at each other and make each other laugh is just the sweetest thing to watch and photograph.

Mckinney Park is such a beautiful spot for any type of session. I love how Leslie and Patrick were not afraid to get their feet wet and it made for some gorgeous shots! The natural beauty of this park combined with Leslie and Patrick’s comfort in front of the camera made this session a dream. Now I’ll just keep scrolling through these photos and count down the days until these two say “I do.”

Scroll through these photos see just how in love these two are.

I hope you enjoyed the beautiful photos from this engagement session at Mckinney Park in Austin. For more engagement session inspiration click here, to book me and make some memories click here, and let’s chat!

BEHIND THE LENS

MEET lois

Art with soul. Moments with meaning. Work led by intention.

Photography has always felt like second nature—an extension of how I move through the world. I grew up on a country property in Oregon, where most days were spent outside—filming home movies, dreaming up scenes, and photographing whatever caught my eye. I studied viola and piano, and that early love for rhythm and light still shapes the way I photograph today: with presence, intention, and feeling.

I’m the second youngest of eight, raised by Romanian immigrants who taught me to dream boldly and love deeply. Over the years, I found myself drawn to beautiful, refined storytelling—creative in approach and rooted in capturing true emotion. In 2021, I officially launched Lois M Photography. Since then, it has grown into a full-time business anchored in story, soul, and imagery that reflects life at its most honest and beautiful.

Today, I live just outside San Antonio with my husband, our three kids, and Luna, our mini dachshund. I find joy in the everyday—faith, family, music, strong coffee, and the kind of love stories that endure.
