Emily’s mom contacted me about headshots for Emily’s dance competition. She knew that she needed a white background and a tight head and shoulders headshot to submit for the competition. We got some great shots of Emily – she’ll be able to choose one from the five that she receives to be included for the...
Jo-Ann and I scheduled this photo shoot (just like any other) not knowing what the weather would hold for the day. The weather turned nasty – cold and rainy but we decided to risk it and hope for the best! I’m so glad that we did because we got some amazing family photos that Jo-Ann...
I met Robbye (Mom) during a headshot event with Pink Petro. She contacted me afterwards about family photos, yay! Her three adorable kiddos were the spotlight of this year’s photos. Beautiful kids and beautiful warm sunlight….a photographer’s ultimate combination! The littlest of the littles was not having anything to do with photos when they first arrived....
I did a photo session with my friend Laurie and her extended family. Sister, brother, their kids, and Grandma. LOVE IT! After that session, Laurie’s sister-in-law contacted me about senior portraits for her daughter. Perfect! We scheduled hair and makeup with Roxana Phillips and then met at The Woodlands High School to start the session....
Mary Ann contacted me about photographing the practice’s Christmas party. It would be a Great Gatsby theme. Fantastic, I thought!

One day, this will be a memory. Don’t miss capturing it.
Senior year has a way of slipping by faster than you expect… and before you know it, they’re graduating.
These photos aren’t just for now—they’re something you’ll look back on for years to come, remembering exactly who they were in this moment.
If you’ve been putting it off, this is your reminder—time is running out and spots are limited.

Shutter speed is one of those things that feels confusing… until it clicks. 😉📸
For headshots, you don’t need anything complicated — just a solid, consistent range and an understanding of how your lighting plays into it.
If you’re a new photographer trying to figure all of this out, I’ve put together a few resources to help you get started — from gear to posing and more.

Perks of having a photographer mom?… you get senior photos that actually feel like you. 🤍
Getting to photograph my own son for his senior session was really special — and it’s also a perfect reminder of how important it is to make these sessions personal.
The guitar, the truck… these aren’t just props. They’re pieces of his story right now.
That’s what makes senior photos meaningful — capturing who you are in this moment, not just what you look like.
If you’re planning a senior session, think about what represents you — your hobbies, your interests, the things you’ll want to remember years from now.
Those are the details that turn photos into something you’ll truly hold onto.

🚨 QUICK! TIME IS RUNNING OUT 👇🏻
Senior season is here, and spots are filling up FAST!
This is one of those moments you don’t get back — and these photos become something you’ll look back on for years.

Most people step in front of the camera thinking, “I have no idea what to do.”
That’s where I come in.
Every small adjustment you see here — posture, hands, angles — is intentional. It’s what turns a quick headshot into something confident and professional.
If you want to learn the poses I rely on most, I put together a guide breaking them down.

If you’re just getting into headshot photography, it’s easy to feel like you need everything to get started.
You don’t.
A solid light setup, a reliable camera, and a lens you can trust will take you a lot further than you think.
📸 For me, that looks like a Nikon Z7II mirrorless camera + a 70–200mm lens, paired with a simple lighting setup that keeps things consistent and professional.
It’s not about having the most gear — it’s about having the right setup and knowing how to use it.
