About Tara Flannery Photography

Portrait Photographer

Hello, and welcome! I’m Tara and I am a portrait photographer serving the greater Houston, TX area.  I specialize in headshots, branding, family portraits, and senior portraits.

The goal of my business has always been to provide exceptional service and high quality portraits for my clients.  I’d like to get to know you and understand what your photography needs are before we start a project.  Let’s discuss the specifics of location, wardrobe, and other dynamics so that we have a plan.  When we work together, we can create something amazing that neither of us knew was even possible!  Starting with a consultation, through the photo session itself, and the final product delivery, I will be with you every step of the way.  And I will be here long after this project so that as future needs arise, you can call me for those as well.

Why Tara Flannery Photography?

Many people have outdated portraits that no longer represent who they are.  As a Certified Professional Photographer, I use lighting, posing, and over 15 years of experience to create new portraits that reflect the very best you.  With new portraits, you’ll feel confident and attract attention, happiness, and success in your personal and professional lives.

Be honest—when was the last time your team photos actually represented who you are today? Most companies wait 3-5 years between updates, but your people (and your business) evolve much faster than that.

Your team's headshots aren't just photos—they're the first impression potential clients, partners, and talent get of your company culture. When they're outdated or inconsistent, what message does that send?

Ready to show the world the dynamic team you've built? Let's create imagery that matches your company's growth. 🚀

I get it—parents worry their kids won’t sit still, won’t smile, or will get tired too quickly. But here’s the truth: that’s exactly what makes the photos beautiful.

✨ We start playfully — no pressure, just letting your kids warm up at their own pace.
📸 I’ll guide you into natural interactions, like walking, snuggling, or playing together.
😊 Expect tickle fights, giggles, and even a little silliness—it’s all part of the fun.
🍂 Kids need breaks? We roll with it. The best smiles usually come after they’ve had a chance to relax.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Every child gets their moment to shine—without forcing fake poses.

There’s no “perfect behavior” required. The most memorable family portraits happen when your kids are just being themselves—and you’re right there with them.

Because this isn’t about stiff poses or saying “cheese.” It’s about capturing the real magic of your family in this season of life.

Here's the hard truth about acting headshots that most photographers won't tell you 👇🏻

If a casting director can't immediately see what role you'd play just by looking at your photo, you've already lost the audition.

Corporate headshots show professionalism. Acting headshots show CHARACTER—and that requires a completely different approach.

Most actors think they need one 'perfect' headshot with a generic smile. But casting directors aren't looking for pleasant—they're looking for types. The lawyer, the best friend, the villain. And they need to see it instantly.

That's why specificity wins:
✨ Confident and commanding for lawyer roles
✨ Warm and approachable for parent characters
✨ Hint of mischief for villain parts

But here's the bigger mistake—thinking one headshot is enough. One headshot = one role. Multiple headshots = multiple opportunities.

You need range: commercial-friendly, dramatic, playful, maybe edgy. When casting directors see variety, they're thinking about how you fit their ENTIRE project.

Not every photographer understands acting industry standards. When I work with actors, we plan multiple 'looks' in one session—because every shot needs to feel intentional.

Ready to create acting headshots that actually get you cast? Let's plan a session that shows your full range.

🎥 Ever wondered what it’s actually like during a headshot session?

If the idea of being in front of the camera makes you feel a little awkward or unsure, you're not alone. Most of my clients come in feeling that way — but leave saying, “That was way more fun than I expected!”

Here's a sneak peak at how I will guide you every step of the way — from how to stand, where to look, even how to tilt your chin — so you never have to wonder what to do. ✨

My goal? To make you feel confident, comfortable, and genuinely like yourself. And the best part is, the results speak for themselves.
