Why hire an event photographer? | The Woodlands Event Photography

Tara Flannery is a Certified Professional Photographer (CPP) based in The Woodlands and Conroe, TX.  Why hire an event photographer?  Because Tara Flannery Photography specializes in event photography.  See more event photography in the gallery.  Contact me to book your event today!

Why hire an event photographer?

When planning an event, the first thing you have to do is to secure the event venue.  Dates and times fill up quickly at popular venues so you want to be sure to get an event on their calendar as soon as possible.  Next, you’ll want to secure catering, flowers, decor, guest list and entertainment.  And of course, a professional photographer!  On the day of the event, you will have meticulously planned every detail.  Every petal and fork have been discussed, rearranged, and secured.  You will want to relax and enjoy the party after all of that hard work.  Let a photographer capture all of those beautiful details!  The smile from a long-lost friend or the loving glance from the friend you saw an hour ago is priceless.  Enjoy those moments and let a photographer hold them so that you can enjoy them long after the lights go out.

50th Anniversary Party for Jean and John

Wow!  Fifty years of wedded bliss.  She had shoulder surgery so John had to fix her hair for the party.  Folks, that’s was marriage is about.  It’s helping your partner when they need it the most.  Just being there every step of the way.  And what a beautiful celebration with family and friends.  Their daughter made all of the arrangements for the dinner at Truluck’s in The Woodlands.  The open air patio was a fantastic spot for photos – we got a photo of the honorees with each couple attending.  A beautiful testimony to their love and friendship.  All my best Jean and John for many more years of happiness to come!

This one is for the corporate admins 👇🏻

Is coordinating individual headshot appointments your nightmare?

Here`s what usually happens:

❌ Chasing down 15+ team members for availability
❌ Booking separate sessions across multiple weeks
❌ Dealing with cancellations and rescheduling chaos
❌ Inconsistent photos because everyone went at different times
❌ The whole process takes MONTHS

Here`s the solution I built specifically for this problem:

✅ Event-based headshot station at YOUR office
✅ Everyone photographed in one efficient session
✅ Consistent lighting and style across your entire team
✅ Private proof galleries so each person controls their image
✅ The whole thing is done in hours, not months

You handle the calendar invite. I handle everything else.

Is your team due for updated headshots? Let`s make it happen without the scheduling chaos.

DM me or use the link in bio to schedule a consultation. Let me walk you through exactly how this works.

There’s a reason I reach for this lens during branding sessions.

I get asked about camera gear all the time — especially during branding sessions — and while the tools matter, how they support the experience matters more.

I love using a zoom lens for portraits because it gives me flexibility. I can adjust framing and perspective without breaking the flow of the session, which helps my client stay relaxed, confident, and present.

That range lets me focus less on repositioning and more on connection, expression, and creating images that feel natural and intentional.

Every technical choice I make is about creating an effortless experience — not just a sharp photo.

If you’re a photographer just starting out and trying to decide where to invest first, remember this: the “best” lens is the one that supports how you shoot and how you want your clients to feel.

📸 Fellow photographers — what lens do you reach for most during portrait sessions?

Drop it in the comments 👇🏻 I’d love to hear.

Looking for a job right now? This matters more than most people realize 👇🏻

In a competitive job market, your professional photo often makes the first impression — before your résumé is read, before an interview is scheduled, before you ever get the chance to speak.

And the truth is, not all photos communicate the same thing.

A strong headshot signals confidence, credibility, and readiness — without feeling stiff or overproduced. It shows that you take your career seriously and understand how you want to be perceived.

What actually works:

✅ Professional lighting that looks natural, not filtered
✅ Images that translate across LinkedIn, email signatures, and company profiles
✅ Guidance on wardrobe and posing so you feel confident and comfortable
✅ A photo that reflects who you are now, not who you were a few years ago

Whether you’re entering the workforce, changing roles, or positioning yourself for what’s next, your professional image plays a bigger role than you think.

If you’re ready to show up with clarity and confidence, I’d love to help.
