King River Ranch

With its storied Native American roots, country land at King River Ranch in Austin evokes an air of enchantment. 

Nestled on the banks of the great Pedernales River, this slice of raw, natural beauty resides on the flourishing Texas wine trail between Austin and Fredericksburg. Twenty-five lush acres of manicured grounds offer breathtaking views and picturesque pastures for Austin engagement photography. 

The land upon which the existing ranch was built tells the story of prosperity and well-being. It’s on this site where generations of Comanche settlements chose to live and thrive. In more recent history, the land was first developed by a direct descendant of Texas Rangers. 

From vivid fields of wildflowers to desert prairie and soothing waters, there’s an abundance of scenery to get lost in - perfect for your Austin engagement photographer to find the ideal backdrop. 

Bordering a half-acre fishing pond, the namesake King Barn is crafted from solid Ponderosa pine for an authentic Texan feel. Bringing every shot to life, the ranch is surrounded by expansive meadows filled with grazing horses, miniature donkeys and St. Croix sheep. 

Perched on the rocky banks of a private quarter-mile section lies the River Terrace. The walkway along the riverbank is paved with genuine Texas flagstone and is beautifully landscaped with an organic garden. And if you really want to go wild, venture to the adjacent petting zoo!
