Tamara contacted me for a family session and I’m so glad that she did! We got some beautiful photos of her family – individuals and as a family. James wasn’t too sure about the animals in the woods. But we were brave and didn’t see any animals, whew! I’m so thankful to have met this...
I see this family twice a year – once for Riley’s birthday and once for family portraits. This year, the family grew by twin boys! I was so excited to meet these guys. Luckily, they liked to be tickled so even though I’m not really that funny, I can tickle. Worked like a charm! Such cuties. Thank...
Favorite food is yogurt – I love it! During the party, Valentina gobbled down some yogurt, happy as a clam! Tutus and Bowties Events contacted me about capturing this birthday party in The Woodlands. The princess decorations were fantastic – from golden castles and armored guards to balloons, face painting, balloons, and crafts. This party had...
Love this adorable family! Grandma contacted me about a family photo session. This little guy was all smiles during our session but when grandpa showed up, you should have seen his little face light up! Grandpa is a seriously funny guy, don’t you know. More smiles, and more great family photos. Thank you Grindel family...

One of the biggest things I hear from senior guys is:
“I don’t know how to pose…”
And honestly—you don’t need to.
That’s my job.
Most of the poses you see here are simple, natural, and just small adjustments that make a big difference on camera. The goal isn’t to feel stiff or over-posed—it’s to look like yourself, just a little more confident.
I’ll guide you through everything during your session so it feels easy and relaxed the entire time.
Senior year is coming up quickly, and sessions start filling up once the school year gets going.
If you’ve been thinking about senior photos, now is a great time to start planning.

But in all seriousness—photographers love a good piece of gear.
And it’s really easy to convince yourself that the next upgrade is what’s going to take your work to the next level.
Sometimes that’s true.
If a piece of equipment makes your workflow smoother, more efficient, or solves a real problem for you—it’s worth every penny.
But if it’s just shiny, new, and replacing something that already works… it can probably wait.
The goal isn’t to have more gear—it’s to have the right gear for how you actually shoot.
🔗 If you’re trying to figure out what’s actually worth investing in, I put together a Photographer Gear Guide that breaks it all down—link in bio.
🤔 Curious… what’s one piece of equipment you’ve bought that was 100% worth it?
A small snapshot of the teams I’ve worked with recently 📸👇🏻
Headshots are one of those things that are easy to put off… until you realize your photos no longer reflect where you are now.
Outdated images, inconsistent team photos, or a mix of styles across platforms can quietly take away from how your brand is perceived.
A headshot refresh doesn’t have to be complicated—it just needs to be intentional.
If your team’s photos haven’t been updated in a while, this is a good time to take a look at what you’re currently using.
📩 If you’re ready for a headshot refresh, you can book a consultation through the link in my bio.
Some of my favorite senior photos always include something personal.
Instruments, sports gear, pets, cars—these are the details that make your photos feel like you.
Senior sessions aren’t just about getting a few good pictures—they’re about capturing this season in a way that feels real and meaningful.
And with senior year right around the corner, now is the time to start thinking about it.
Spots tend to fill up quickly once the school year gets going, so planning ahead makes all the difference.

“Pick something you’d do for free…” It sounds simple—but building a career around it is anything but.
There’s a lot that goes into turning photography into something sustainable—learning your craft, understanding lighting, figuring out your gear, working with clients, and continuing to grow.
But if you’re willing to put in the time, it’s one of the most rewarding things you can do.
If you’re just getting started, I have a few free resources to help you figure out what actually matters (and what doesn’t).

At the end of the day, it’s not about the title—it’s about what the photos actually do for you.
For most teams, the hardest part isn’t getting the photos taken… it’s coordinating everything around it.
Schedules, availability, keeping the look consistent across everyone—it adds up quickly, and it’s usually why it gets pushed off.
That’s exactly why I created a Corporate Team Headshot Planner—to make the process simple, organized, and easy to execute from start to finish.
