Friess Family Session
Outdoor Family Session in Historic Hyde Park Tampa
The Friess family had an outdoor family session in the historic Hyde Park neighborhood in Tampa and we had a blast! They live in one of the most beautiful neighborhoods, with so much character and charm. We were able to capture all of their photos right around their gorgeous home, making the session feel personal and intimate.
The historic Hyde Park neighborhood near downtown Tampa provided the perfect backdrop for their family photos. From their lovely front porch to the side yard, every spot had that classic, timeless feel that makes Hyde Park so special. We even got to include their fun fur-baby in some of the shots, which added an extra layer of warmth and personality to the photos. You could really see how much this family loves their home and their time together.
Their two daughters, who are in high school, were so sweet and clearly share a close bond. It was wonderful to see how much they care for each other, and that connection really came through in the photos. The sisters were naturals in front of the camera, and you could tell they were having fun throughout the session.
I first met the Friess family while working with Stroll Hyde Park Magazine, where they were featured as the cover family for one of the summer editions. It was such an honor to photograph them for that feature, and these photos were also used in the magazine story that highlighted their family. It’s always exciting to see how photos from a session like this can be part of something larger, like a magazine feature, that tells the story of a family in their own words.
Having a family session in the historic Hyde Park neighborhood is always a unique experience. The area’s historic charm, combined with the personal touches of the family’s home, makes for a setting that’s both picturesque and meaningful. For the Friess family, capturing these moments in the place they love so much added an extra layer of significance to the photos. The result was a collection of images that not only reflect their family’s bond but also the beauty of the neighborhood they call home.
If you’re considering family photos and live in or near Hyde Park, I can’t recommend a family session in the historic Hyde Park neighborhood enough. The neighborhood’s historic charm and beautiful homes provide a stunning backdrop, and there’s something so special about capturing memories in a place that means so much to you. The Friess family’s session was a perfect example of how a familiar, beloved setting can make your family photos even more meaningful. Whether it’s on your front porch, in your yard, or with your fur-baby, these are the moments you’ll treasure for years to come.
