Fall Family Portraits | Houston Spring The Woodlands Family Photographer

FALL IS FAMILY PORTRAIT TIME!!
What?  It’s summer.  I know.  We just started summer vacation but it’s not too early to schedule your family’s fall portrait session.  Here’s why…the fall portrait season (October and November) is the busiest season for family portrait photographers.  It’s good to get booked early so that you have your choice of date and time and possibly location for your photo session.  By getting the details of payment and signed portrait agreement done early, we can then focus on the other details of the session like wardrobe, location, props, and any other staging for the session.  And who likes to be rushed at the last minute anyway?
Here are some things to consider when booking your family fall portrait session.
1) TRUST – Custom portraits are an investment.  These are documented memories that your family will keep for a very long time.  I am confident in my ability to deliver a quality product and have fun with the family while doing it!  

2) STYLE – The images on my blog and website are the best indication of what your images will look like.  My sessions tend to be very relaxed yet guided and I take subtle cues from the family as to how the session is going and how it needs to flow.  I like to get posed shots done in the beginning of a session while the kids are usually still on their best behavior (I have a rowdy 5-year-old and know how that goes so I can easily go along with whatever comes)!  Then we just let it go and we capture lots of great, what-I-call, “family moments” where you get to just be YOU and I just tag along and capture the whole thing!
3) END PRODUCTS – Think about what you would like as the end product before your session.  This will help us both plan for the images even down to the wardrobe choices.  Are you interested in a gorgeous canvas gallery to hang on your living room wall?  Framed portraits?  Holiday cards?  Digital images?  I will help you see the possibilities with all of these options before and after our session.
So book your FALL PORTRAIT session today!  Contact me at tara@taraflannery.com.

One outfit isn’t enough. Here’s why…

In branding sessions, we plan intentionally—from your wardrobe to your messaging—so your photos work everywhere your brand shows up.

I always recommend bringing multiple outfits: start with your most formal look and end with something more relaxed. This gives you a versatile set of images—perfect for everything from LinkedIn to your About page to your social media.

✨ Pro tip: Think layers, textures, and pieces that feel like you.

💬 Not sure what to wear or how to plan your session wardrobe? Drop your questions below—I’m here to help!

Let’s talk about it 👇🏻

When people land on your website or socials, they want to know who you are.

But when you rely on stock photos, you risk looking generic, disconnected, or even untrustworthy — and that could be costing you real opportunities.

Here are 5 reasons to book a professional branding session and invest in photos that are genuine and authentically you:

1️⃣ Build connection. Real faces build real trust.

2️⃣ Show your personality. Let your brand voice shine visually.

3️⃣ Stand out. Your competition is using the same stock photos. You deserve better.

4️⃣ Get consistency. Custom photos align with your colors, vibe, and messaging.

5️⃣ Boost confidence. When you love your photos, you show up more.

📩 Ready to ditch the stock and show up as the real you?

Contact me to book your branding consultation today! I’d love to help you elevate your presence.

If I had a dollar for every time a client said, “I’m not photogenic”… I could retire.

But here’s the truth:

That phrase? It’s not a fact.
It’s a story you’ve been telling yourself — one of those “little t” truths that feels real, but isn’t.

The real truth?
✨ You are photogenic.
📸 You just haven’t had someone help you see it yet.

Most of us aren’t perfectly symmetrical. Most of us feel awkward in front of the camera. That’s NORMAL.

But with the right lighting, posing, angles — and someone who knows how to bring out your best — that all changes.

You don’t need to look like anyone else.
You just need to feel like you.

And that’s where I come in. 💛

Ready to finally love the way you show up in photos? Contact me — I got you.

Want people to remember you? Start with this 👇🏻

Your face is your most powerful branding tool — and science backs it up. 🧠

We’re wired to recognize and remember faces, especially when we see them consistently. So if your headshot is outdated, inconsistent, or missing altogether… you could be missing out on real connections.

Here are 5 reasons to invest in a professional headshot that aligns with your brand:

1. First impressions happen online. Make yours count.

2. Visual consistency builds trust. People recognize what they see often.

3. A polished photo = instant credibility.

4. It helps people feel like they know you. Before you’ve even met.

5. Recognition = recall. Repetition helps people remember you.

📩 DM me to book your consultation — let’s create a headshot that helps your brand stick.
