Places to take family pictures

[FamilyGal]

Any ideas around the area to take family pictures? I have a family I am taking sometime this week. I am not that familar with the parks in The Woodlands, other than older ones.

Lisa's Portraits took pictures of my kids at one of the businesses up Technology Forest (turn and go North from Research Forest). There is a small pond with some nice rocks & plenty of vegetation.

They actually decided to use my backyard. Now, I am trying to decide the arrangement. Three of the subjects are very tall and slim, one shorter and then a 3 yr old.

I always think that casual looks the best, more natural.

Maybe everyone sitting on the ground?

Thanks Linda! I will check those links out. They are now coming over tomorrow in the early evening. We are going for the casual look. They were going to all wear white shirts, but they rebeled and are all wearing brown/khaki with jeans. We are taking it in my backyard where there is a lot of greenery, so I still think it will look good.

I am going to take a group picture (two sisters and their two children each), then one of just the sisters, one of just the four kids, one of each set of kids, then individual pictures of each person. (These are going to be a birthday gift for the grandfather.) I will have some of them sitting on the ground and some I will include my wrought iron furniture that I "think" will look good too. Nice thing about digital is that I can take a ton of pictures and keep what we like. Only thing is that they waited until the last minute and need the pictures by Saturday! Hopefully, it won't rain, or I will have to find an indoor place!
