My friend Katie Mehnert is the founder and CEO of Pink Petro: an organization that promotes interaction and communication of women in the energy sector. “We unite, connect, develop, and grow women.” Her goal is to help women help each other in this industry that is typically dominated by men. I hope that I can...
Tracie called asking about headshots – she wanted something elegant, clean, tasteful. By using the white background, Tracie will be able to easily use the headshots for her new business cards – a clean transition from image to text. To me, each of these shots says something slightly different and I’m glad that she has...
Meet Bret Strong, The Strong Firm in The Woodlands. Like many lawyers, Bret’s schedule allowed only a certain amount of time for photos. I said, no problem! I can get your headshots in 30 minutes and the other photos on my own. We ended up chatting about photography and kiddos (my two favorite subjects) and...
You might remember the Pink Petro launch party where I took headshots of attendees. One of those attendees (a Shell employee) contacted me about taking headshots for the Shell Women’s Event the following week. Of course! I arrived at the United Way building for the event. I set up background and lights and the women...
Ashley contacted me about a corporate shoot for Lead Construction (http://leadconstructionllc.com). Great! More updates to websites, LinkedIn, marketing material, etc. I brought lighting equipment and backdrop to their office in Tomball. We did some headshots and thankfully it stopped raining long enough to take some shots outside – headshots and a couple of group shots....

Your business doesn’t need to be “more established” first.
You don’t need to lose the weight, finish the website, perfect your wardrobe, or wait until you feel 100% ready.
If your current photos no longer reflect the level of business you’re building, that’s reason enough to update them.
A branding session gives you more than a new headshot—it gives you a library of intentional, on-brand images you can actually use across your website, social media, marketing, speaking opportunities, and everything in between.
We’ll plan the looks, the location, the shots you need, and how you’ll use them.
You just have to finally put it on the calendar. 😉

The #1 thing I hear from seniors? “I don’t know how to pose.” 👇🏻
Good news: you don’t need to. That’s my job. 🤍
You don’t have to practice poses in the mirror or spend hours saving inspiration on Pinterest before your session. I’ll guide you through where to put your hands, how to shift your weight, when to move, where to look—all of it.
We’ll mix the classic poses with sitting, walking, twirling, laughing, and plenty of movement so your final gallery has variety without feeling forced.
Save this Senior Girl Posing Guide for a little inspiration, but remember: the best poses are the ones that still feel like you.
🎓 Class of 2027: Senior season is here! If you’re ready to start planning your session, head to the link in my bio to book a consultation.
You’re not supposed to know what to do in front of the camera—that’s my job. 🙌🏼
I’ll tell you where to put your hands, how to angle your body, when to shift your weight, where to look, and yes… I’ll probably demonstrate it myself first. 😂
Good posing isn’t about memorizing a bunch of complicated positions. It’s about making small adjustments that help you look confident, approachable, and like yourself.
And if you want a little head start before your next headshot or branding session, I put together a free guide with 5 Power Poses Every Professional Should Know.
These are simple poses you can use for professional photos, speaking engagements, events, or anytime a camera gets pointed your way.
📸 Grab the free guide through the link in my bio—and save this reel as proof that you will never be left standing in front of my camera wondering what to do with your hands. 😂
I’ve been a photographer for a long time, and somewhere along the way I realized the photos are only part of what I get to create. 🤍
I get to help someone who hates being photographed finally feel comfortable in front of the camera.
I get to help business owners show up confidently for the brands they’ve worked so hard to build.
Yes, I make photographs.
But I also get to create confidence, connection, and something worth holding onto.
And I think that’s a pretty great way to make a living. 📸
Ready to create something of your own? Whether you need updated headshots, fresh branding photos, senior portraits, or family photos, I’d love to have you in front of my camera.

If your team is constantly changing… this is worth knowing. 👇🏼
Group photos can be one of the hardest things to keep updated—especially for businesses with high turnover, growing teams, or people who aren’t always in the same place at the same time.
That’s where a group composite comes in.
Instead of trying to coordinate everyone for one big photo, I photograph each person individually—so you get cohesive, professional headshots—and then build the group image from there.
The biggest benefit?
When someone joins or leaves your team, you don’t have to start over. We simply update the composite—no need to reschedule a full team session.
It’s a much more flexible (and realistic) way to keep your team looking consistent and up to date.
If your team photos have been on your to-do list, this might be the solution you’ve been looking for.

🤝🏼 Meet Danielle Woods
Danielle is a powerhouse in the world of HR technology—helping companies around the globe turn HR into a high-impact, value-driving part of their business. As a Global Director of People Technology and Workday strategist, she’s led digital transformations across 40+ countries and supported companies through major milestones like M&As and IPOs. 🚀
This is Danielle’s third branding session with me—and that’s something I always love to see.
Because your brand isn’t static. As your business grows and evolves, your visuals should reflect that.
For Danielle’s last two sessions, we worked in a professional studio setting. This time, she wanted something more relaxed and personal—so we turned her home into the backdrop.
And that shift matters. Your photos should match not just what you do, but how you show up now.
Updating your branding isn’t about starting over—it’s about staying aligned with where your business is today.
Danielle, thank you for trusting me (again) to capture your brand. 🤍
