2024 Holiday Mini Session Recap

Our 2024 shoot location was the very exclusive, member-only Hotel Saint Cecilia! If you’re not familiar with Hotel Saint Cecilia, it’s one of the most beautiful venues in Austin, located just off of the iconic South Congress Street.  The hotel’s lush grounds are rich with history. Hotel Saint Cecilia was originally built in 1888 as the Miller-Crockett house, and is among the five remaining Victorian homes of twelve originally built along this stretch of the Colorado River.
