Burson Family – Mercer Arboretum – Houston, TX

Chad and I met the Burson family out at Mercer Arboretum in Spring, Texas for their uber fantastic and totally awesome family lifestyle session.  But we didn’t meet them at the pretty and frilly side with all the flowers and what-not.  We traversed through a half-mile of trails finding the murkiest swamps, knobbiest cypress tree roots, Tarzan-ian vines, and we spied on some sunbathing turtles.

Here are a few of my favorites:

The family chose a photo very close to this one for their photo Christmas cards.

Hanging around…

This little guy was a hoot to photograph…

This is one of my favorite family photos ever!

The kids were checking out something in the water…

So I slid under the bench, hovered my head over the water, held out the camera at arm’s length, and captured this little gem.

This family was so much fun to photograph!

Finally, Dad and his boys.

Thanks Burson family!
