Senior Photos in The Woodlands

Senior photos are one of my favorite things to shoot because they’re so much fun!  A typical senior photo session has multiple outfits and locations and we get lots of unique, beautiful images!  When planning for your senior photo session, think about outfits, hobbies, and interests that we can incorporate into your session.  This is about you – a celebration of all you have accomplished and of where you will go next.  We celebrate the memories of the past and hope for the future.  It’s exciting to think about what comes next and the next chapter in your life.

Senior Pictures with Addison

I photographed Addison’s sister Avery when she graduated from high school.  Now it’s Addison’s turn to celebrate!  We had a great session starting at The Woodlands High School track.  Both girls ran track at The Woodlands High School and it was great to incorporate this passion in their senior photos.  We met the coach in the parking lot and he asked if he could be in the photos!  Next we went to the Woodlands waterway for more photos and some outfit changes.  It was cold so Addison was happy to change into her jeans and sweater.  The waterway gave us so many great options for photos including a red piece of building that matched her red sweater and red lipstick (thank you Roxana Phillips for the beautiful hair and makeup)!  A beautiful soul and beautiful images – all my best on what’s next for you Addison.

Ever wondered why your headshots look flat instead of flattering? 👀

It all comes down to lighting. In the studio, I use one main light source and strategically placed reflectors to bounce light and fill in shadows. This creates that soft, even glow that makes you look approachable and polished—while still keeping a touch of shadow to add shape and dimension to your face.

Flat lighting can make your features disappear. The right lighting makes you stand out. ✨

Here’s why 👇🏻

Most people wait for the “perfect” moment—when they’ve lost a few pounds, changed their hair, or finally feel more confident. But here’s the truth: there will always be something you’re waiting on.

Your headshot isn’t about some future version of you—it’s about showing up confidently in the season you’re in today. Because this version of you? The one leading your team, meeting clients, building your business—that’s the version people want to connect with.

When your photo feels authentic and current, it builds instant trust. Outdated or staged images can actually do the opposite, making it harder for people to recognize the real you.

So don’t wait for “someday.” The right time to show up as your best self is always now.

🚫 Let’s talk wardrobe no-nos for headshots.

I want you to look polished, confident, and distraction-free in your photos—and sometimes that means skipping certain outfit choices.

For men:

❌ No undershirts peeking through

❌ If you’re wearing a tie, make sure your shirt buttons all the way up

❌ If it doesn’t, we’re ditching the tie

For women:

❌ Skip the sleeveless tops—your arms will compete with your face for attention

✅ A sleeve (even short) helps keep the focus where it belongs—on YOU

The goal? A clean, intentional look that draws people in and keeps their attention right where it should be—your face.

📸 Save this before your session so you can show up ready and confident.

Let's talk... ⬇️

If your headshot isn’t working on your website, LinkedIn, or social media...

👉🏻 it’s probably not the image.

👉🏻 it’s the crop.

Yep, even the most beautiful photo can fall flat if it’s not framed for the platform it’s on.

Here are 3 common cropping mistakes I see all the time (and how to fix them):

1️⃣ Too Close – When there’s no breathing room, the image feels cramped and overly intense.

2️⃣ Too Far – If we can’t clearly see your face, we lose the connection instantly.

3️⃣ Wrong Shape for the Platform – That rectangle you uploaded to LinkedIn? It just became a circle... and cut off half your head.

✨ The fix? Intentional cropping before you upload—so your headshot looks polished, professional, and approachable everywhere.

Want a headshot that works across all platforms? Let’s create one that does just that.
