Austin Senior Photographer Specializing in Outdoor Portraits at Golden Hour

When it comes to senior photography in Austin, Texas, there’s nothing quite like capturing this special season in nature, surrounded by golden sunlight, earthy textures, and wide-open skies. Whether it’s a girl twirling in a sunlit field in her favorite sundress and cowgirl hat, or a guy proudly holding his fishing pole by the water, nature brings out something raw, timeless, and truly authentic in every senior.

As an Austin senior photographer specializing in outdoor portraits, I love capturing seniors during golden hour when the light is soft, dreamy, and oh-so-flattering.

Why Work with an Austin Senior Photographer Specializing in Outdoor Portraits?

Austin is home to some of the most stunning outdoor locations, from the glowing fields of Commons Ford Ranch to the tree-lined beauty of Bull Creek, and the hidden gems near Lake Travis and Brushy Creek. I love using natural light (especially during golden hour - that soft, glowy light just before sunset) to highlight your personality and make your photos feel straight out of a dream.

Golden hour is more than just good lighting - it’s a feeling. It’s the kind of light that makes your skin glow, your eyes sparkle, and the entire image feel warm, nostalgic, and magical. That’s my happy place. That’s the Tishy glow.

My Style: Natural, Ethereal, and Always You

If you're looking for stiff, overly posed studio portraits… I'm probably not your girl. But if you want natural posing, soft movement, laughter, and images that radiate confidence and connection, then let’s make some magic together.

For the girls: We might chase the sunset in a floral dress, barefoot or boots in a field, with wind in your hair, sun at your back and wildflowers in hand.

For the guys: Think wide-open skies, your truck parked under an oak tree, or casting a line into the water with your dog nearby. Whether it’s hunting, fishing, hiking, or your favorite sport at sunset, we’ll build a session around your vibe and your story.

Every session is customized to your interests, your style, and your location. That’s why no two galleries look alike, because you’re not like anyone else.

What It’s Like to Work With Me

I know how vulnerable it can feel to be in front of a camera (especially if this is your first real photo session). Every session with Tishy Photography is tailored to you—from location scouting to outfit styling. As an Austin senior photographer specializing in outdoor portraits, I make it my mission to highlight each senior’s unique personality in natural settings that feel authentic.

My job is to make you feel beautiful, confident, and celebrated - for exactly who you are right now. And spoiler alert: you don’t need to be a model to look like one. I’ve got you.
