Chairman’s Ball for The Woodlands Area Chamber of Commerce

Chairman’s Ball

The Woodlands Area Chamber of Commerce had the annual Chairman’s Ball on August 18. I had a great time photographing the event. The theme, as you can tell, was Star Wars. All of the tables were elaborately decorated to the theme. Some of them went way beyond what I thought was possible for table decorations! Candy and gift bags and goodies smothered the tables and waited for guests to arrive. It was a fun evening of dinner and dancing!

News from The Courier of Montgomery County

Excitement could be sensed in The Woodlands Saturday night as hundreds of people in black tie attire and Star Wars costumes applauded the outgoing and incoming chairmen for The Woodlands Area Chamber of Commerce.

The attendees entered the 40th annual Chairman’s Ball at The Woodlands Waterway Mariott Hotel and Convention Center by walking through plants recreating an Endor-like jungle scene before sitting at tables with Chewbacca, Yoda, and more decorative toppers.

Some attendees dressed in R2-D2 and C-3PO droid tuxedos, others could be spotted as Jedis and even Queen Padmé Amidala while enjoying dinner and a show that included a live lightsaber battle and recognition for those who have served as chairman in the past and helped bring the chamber success.

One of the biggest reasons people put off booking a branding session?

They have no idea what to expect.

And when you don`t know the process, it`s easy to talk yourself out of investing.

So here`s the truth👇🏻

I`m not just showing up to take photos. I`m walking you through every step so you feel confident, prepared, and like you`re working with a partner who actually gets your business.

No guessing. No awkward posing. No "figure it out yourself" energy.

If you`ve been waiting for the right time to update your brand imagery, let`s talk. Link in bio to book your free consultation. 📸

My photography style is leaving my client with a photo they love to show off 🤍

Every session is designed to create images that feel elevated and effortless, capturing who you are now and where your brand is going next.

Photos that make a statement without trying too hard — and still feel relevant years from now.

If your brand calls for imagery that feels confident, cohesive, and unmistakably you, you’re in the right place.

This is why you should NOT ask ChatGPT to turn your Facebook photo into a professional headshot 👇🏻

AI can do a lot of things… but representing the real you isn’t one of them.

In the AI version of my headshot:
❌ My hair was changed
❌ My makeup disappeared
❌ My face shape was different
❌ The lighting + posing weren’t tailored to me at all

On screen, it looked “close enough”…
But in person? It looked nothing like me.

And that’s the problem.

Some poses might feel a little silly in the moment and that’s okay. 📸👇🏼

One of the biggest secrets to great photos is being willing to experiment.

What feels “unnatural” in real life often looks confident, effortless, and polished on camera. That’s why posing is such a big part of what I do during every session.

I’ll guide you through adjustments, test different angles, and fine-tune details so we find what truly works for you.

You don’t need to overthink it or worry about how you look — trusting the process is where the magic happens.

You show up. I’ll handle the posing.

Updated branding photos aren’t just about looking polished — they’re about having the right tools ready when you need them.

A branding session creates a full library of images you can use throughout the year — for your website, social media, emails, speaking opportunities, and everything in between.

When you have those visuals ready, showing up online feels easier and more intentional.

Instead of scrambling for content or reusing outdated photos, you’ll always have on-brand images you can confidently pull from — whenever your business needs them.

That’s why branding photos aren’t just an expense.

They’re an investment in consistency, confidence, and long-term visibility.
