Bold Color Headshots | Houston Headshot Photographer

Tara Flannery is a Certified Professional Photographer (CPP) based in The Woodlands and Conroe, TX.  Tara Flannery Photography specializes in corporate headshots and I love to see bold color headshots.  See more headshots in the gallery.  Contact me to book your professional headshot today!

Bold Color Headshots

Choosing what to wear for your headshot session is one of the first decisions towards a fantastic session and outcome!  The standard black jacket is never a bad choice.  If you pair that with a colored shirt, it makes for a very professional headshot.  Sometimes, though, it’s appropriate to step outside of the norm and be bold with your color choices for the headshots.  During a branding session, we play with color and background choices and lighting scenarios.  This session offers additional time and final images so that you get a variety of looks for your portfolio and brand marketing.  We can get the standard professional headshot and then we can photograph different wardrobe options like maybe a more casual look or another color or scene.  In the end, you have five final retouched headshots perfect for any marketing needs.

Branding Session for Shiketha

Shiketha knew that she wanted to do the branding session so that she could have a variety of options for her final headshots.  She even sent me some sample images ahead of time so that we were on the same page from the beginning.  Shiketha brought several outfits and we planned the entire photo session around the outfits and coordinating backgrounds and scenes.  We started with her cream blouse on the grey background which is a combination that I adore.  Her gorgeous smile made this a winning choice.  Next, we photographed her in a bright pink jacket on the white background.  I prefer a bold color on the white background to create some pop!  Then, she put on her blue dress and we used the natural light setup with a blue-grey background.  We ended the session in her jeans and jacket for a more casual yet still professional look outside.  What a great set of images!  I can’t wait to see where she goes next…

If your kids are still living under your roof, take the photos. 🤍

You hear people say you only get 18 summers with your kids, and now that mine are grown, I understand just how quickly those years really go. Once college, work, relationships, and their own schedules enter the picture, getting everyone together at the same time gets a whole lot harder.

So don’t wait for the “perfect” year for family portraits. Document the family you have right now—the missing teeth, growth spurts, changing personalities, and even the little bit of chaos that comes with it.

Because one day, getting everyone in the same place for a family photo might be the hardest part.

🍂 Fall Family Portrait Weekend Availability:

September 20
October 3, 10, & 17
November 7 & 15

If family portraits have been on your list, grab one of my remaining fall dates before they’re gone.

📸 Book your session through the link in my bio.

🎓 Planning senior photos? Start with my Senior Session Guide!

I put it together to help you plan your session—from what to wear and what to bring to all the little details that make your photos feel like you. Grab it through the link in my bio!

And one thing I always encourage seniors to think about? Don’t document just one moment of senior year.

So much changes between the beginning of the school year and graduation.

Fall is about who you are right now—your personality, interests, style, sports, hobbies, and everything that made these last four years yours.

By spring, the focus starts shifting toward what’s next—college decisions, future plans, and all the excitement that comes with finishing senior year.

And then comes the cap and gown. 🎓 The final milestone before one chapter officially closes and another begins.

Senior year goes FAST. Take the photos. 🤍

Great headshot lighting doesn’t need to be complicated—it needs to be intentional. 📸

Where you place your light, how you position your reflector, and understanding what each one is actually doing can be the difference between a headshot that feels fine and one that looks clean, crisp, and polished.

And once you find setups that work? You don’t need to reinvent the wheel at every session.

That consistency is especially important when you’re photographing corporate teams and need every headshot to look cohesive—even when people are photographed at different times.

If you’re a photographer working on your headshot lighting, I put together a FREE guide with 3 Lighting Setups for Flawless Headshots that you can reference when planning your next session.

💡 Grab the guide through the link in my bio and save this reel for the next time you’re setting up your lights!
