Elisabeth contacted me asking about a head shot session. She explained that she was going to try out for the Houston Texans cheerleading squad. I was thrilled to help her and so set the date for a shoot. When I arrived at our location, she had a whole bag of outfits, props, and accessories for...
My friend Wes Phelps has a new book coming out called A People’s War on Poverty. He asked me to take a head shot for him for the book cover. Here is the write-up for University of Georgia Press Spring/Summer 2014. I’m so excited for him that his book is finished! Here is the link...
Brad Leigh, of The Leigh Law Firm in The Woodlands, was a great model! We took some shots of the family and then got some new photos of him for the upcoming January issue of LIVING Magazine. He also needed some updated images for his website and promotional materials. http://www.woodlandsinjurylawyer.com/
What happens when you normally take a group photo? Yep. There’s always one person (and sometimes two) that don’t realize you’re taking a photo. They’re looking someplace else or blinking or just not ready for the shot. So instead of taking an awkward group photo of all of Dr. Paige’s patients, he had a great...

Class of 2026... this is your moment. ✨
You`re not just graduating — you`re stepping into who you`re meant to become. And that person? They deserve to be celebrated.
This year isn`t about fitting into someone else`s idea of what a senior should look like. It`s about showing the world exactly who YOU are:
🎸 The musician who finds peace in melody
🏐 The athlete who never gives up
📚 The scholar who asks the big questions
🎨 The artist who sees beauty everywhere
💫 The dreamer who`s about to change the world
Your senior portraits should tell YOUR story. Not a generic version. Not what everyone else is doing. Yours.
Because in 10 years, when you look back at these photos, you should see the exact moment you started believing in yourself.
The moment your story really began.

Be honest—when was the last time you felt completely prepared for a photo session? 📸
For most seniors (and parents!), the biggest stress isn`t posing—it`s wondering if you brought the right things. Will this outfit work? Did I forget something important? Should I have packed differently?
Here`s the truth: your senior session should celebrate who you are right now, not create anxiety about what to wear or bring.
I`ve photographed hundreds of seniors, and the best sessions happen when students feel confident and prepared—not overwhelmed by choices or worried about forgotten items.
Swipe through for my go-to checklist that takes the guesswork out of prep. Because when you`re prepared, your authentic personality shines through naturally. ✨

Be honest—when you think about family photos, does choosing the location stress you out more than getting everyone to smile at the same time? 📸
Here`s the truth: The right location isn`t about finding the most Instagram-worthy spot. It`s about finding where YOUR family feels most comfortable and authentic.
Swipe through my guide to Houston`s best family photo locations → each one creates a completely different mood and energy for your portraits.
The goal? Photos that actually feel like your family, not like you`re trying to be someone else.

I hear it all the time… ⬇️
“I want to lose a little weight first.”
“I’ll do it after I get my hair done.”
“I just don’t feel ready yet.”
But the truth is… most people never feel 100% ready.
And that’s okay.
You don’t need to be “perfect” to show up confidently.
You just need the right space, the right support, and someone behind the camera who sees you as you are—right now.
✨ If this is the sign you’ve been waiting for… I’d love to help.
✨ Your headshot isn’t just for LinkedIn.
It’s showing up in more places than you think—email signatures, websites, press features, proposals, even business cards.
The question is… does yours still represent you the way you want it to?
📸 A polished, up-to-date headshot builds trust, strengthens credibility, and makes every interaction—online or offline—more personal.
