PORTRAITS

Oh my goodness we love the pics and can’t help but to keep looking at them constantly w a BIG smile ??? thanks so much Tara for your vision and helping to capture a very special moment for us!! ~ Shyla

“…we just love her [senior] pictures! You did a great job and we really appreciate everything you did! The prints and canvas print came out just beautiful! ~ Lisa Moncrief

Only word that comes to mind is WOW!!!.  The pics you took are just stunning.  You have such a vision and drive, I admire you for what you’ve accomplished.  Thanks for the wonderful job you did. ~ Ryan Zabriskie

The pictures are WONDERFUL. You are an AMAZING PHOTOGRAPHER!  Thank you for the time you spent with us photographing us.  You captured the true essence of who we are in those photos.  Thank you. ~ Christa

We had such a wonderful experience with Tara! I have very active, young children. Tara was able to adjust and be creative to get those perfect shots. She was also very patient and kind. We absolutely love our photos and will be back for more! ~ Pamela Hagg

We LOVE the pictures Tara took of our family. As always, time gets away from me and I find myself trying to schedule our annual pictures last minute. Due to an unexpected vacation, illness, and the hurry of the season I was even later than usual. Tara found a spot for me and though I was sick, she was able to reschedule, take our pictures, get them to me sooner than anticipated, and I had our cards back and mailed out in PLENTY of time for the holiday season. She went over and above and I suspect this is just how she does things. I’m so thankful for my friend’s referral and plan to continue to use her in the future. ~ Amy Wallace

Tara is beyond awesome and I have recommended her to everyone that asks about the pictures we proudly display in our house, the cards we sent out at Christmas time and really in any conversation. Her professionalism is a gift, her attitude is positive and her patience is virtuous. She is great with kids big and small, young and old! ~ Jeff Mechler and Mark Vines

I have used Tara many times over the last couple of years. She is always able to capture the personalities of my children perfectly! She is great with them and took as much time as we needed to capture the perfect pictures. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer, especially if you have children! ~ Rachel Barzilla

I wasn’t sure how the session would go especially when my 3 yr old son introduced himself as “I Batman”. But, Tara did an amazing job capturing my children’s spirit and fun, loving attitudes. She made them…well, the whole family …feel very comfortable. I really love how our family pictures are very casual, natural and relaxed instead of “posed”. Thank you Tara ! ~ Michelle Combs

First, Tara took some incredible pictures of me to use for professional reasons – not so easy to flatter me in the seventh decade of my life, but she did it anyway – I am so grateful to have those photos any time someone requests one. Then, this spring, she took pictures of my three-year-old granddaughter among the bluebonnets and they were really precious, though it wasn’t all that easy to get her to pose – Tara was very patient with her and just waited until the pose was right – Plus she took so many that some were bound to be good. I will continue to use her for our family’s portrait needs. Thanks, Tara, for two jobs well done, so far! ~ Linda White

Tara was wonderful taking my daughters senior pictures. She brought several friends & siblings with her, Tara was more than accommodating with the large crowd. Her styling of the pictures turned out just beautiful. The final product turned out much better than I could have hoped for! She made her old mom look good! ~ Kristin Roach

Tara was amazing! She took our family photo including my 18 month old nephew. There wasn’t a single picture she took that I didn’t love. The images she captured of my family was so incredible. She captured images that I thought would be hard with a 18th month old but she captured them beautifully. I have never had such a fun and memorable experience while having pictures taken. I would recommend her to anyone. She is truly talented and one of a kind. ~ Laura

My children (including a 10 week old) had pictures taken by Tara. I wasn’t sure how they would turn out seeing how my baby can’t even sit up. Well…they were great! She is very patient and good with the kids. Fun times! ~ Sada Winter

Tara is a rare gem! She was patient with our three boys (and me!) while taking our family photos. We love all of our photos. The comment was made about our framed portrait that “it looks like one of those paper inserts that come in frames when you buy them.” This is totally a testament to Tara’s skills and not our rag-tag bunch of boys!! ~ Reagan Fox

HEADSHOTS

Tara was so flexible when it came to times and worked with us for our corporate headshot shoot in the office. She was so supportive and kind, giving great direction to everyone. The photos turned out fantastic and I would definitely recommend her! ~M. Clendenen, Blue Spruce Capital

First of all thank you, I had fun!  Secondly, they turned out awesome!!! So awesome I can’t decide!!! ~ Devlyn Emilio

I’d completely recommend using Tara for your next photography needs. Based on her portfolio and the work she’s done with me, I can verify it’s completely worth your while. Tara brings great experience, professionalism and fun to what some would consider to be a very nervous setting. She brings out natural confidence in the client through out the photo shoot. I first found out about Tara’s work through the collaboration she does with Pink Petro and I’d highly recommend her services for not only professional head shots, but personal events and family photos as well. ~ Catherine Cavazos

Took a new professional headshot by Tara Flannery Photography. She was extremely pleasant with a magnetic personality and very accommodating to our company’s needs. Overall wonderful experience. I highly recommend her services if you are in the greater Houston area and in need of an updated headshot. Thank you Tara Flannery! ~ Aarren Snowney, Dressander

Thank you so much, Tara.  I will sing praises of your fabulous work to all my friends, family and colleagues.  I will also keep you in mind if I need more photos in the future.  I suspect that once folks in my network see my LinkedIn photo, they will promptly delete their profile photos, and ask me where the heck I got mine done.  There’s just no substitute for a quality photo.  I personally think it is a pound foolish to put anything up at all unless it is done professionally.  ~Stephen Peterson

EVENTS

 

Tara took pictures at my son’s graduation party. She came and blended in with the party goers. She did an outstanding job! So much so, that I had her take pictures of my family and of a friend’s going away party. She is now like one of the family! I will use her again and again! ~ Christy Dillard

Coordinating team photos shouldn’t feel like scheduling a board meeting. 😅

That’s why I love using group composites. Instead of trying to get everyone in the same room at the same time (nearly impossible for busy teams, especially doctors!), here’s how it works:

📸 Each person comes in individually

⏱️ We capture their headshot + full-body shot

✅ They’re done in minutes and back to work

🖼️ Later, I combine everyone into one seamless, polished group photo

No stress. No waiting around. And everyone looks their absolute best.

Here are my top tips for creating photos you’ll love for years to come 👇🏻

🎨 Choose a soft, coordinating color palette — think blues, burgundy, and warm earth tones that look gorgeous in outdoor settings.

👕 Stick to classic, solid pieces without big logos or bold patterns for a timeless look.

😊 And most importantly — keep everyone comfortable (especially the kids!) so we can have fun and capture genuine smiles.

Fall sessions fill up fast — let’s plan your perfect family session now so you can relax and enjoy it when the leaves start to turn. 🍁

Want a flawless team photo every time? Here’s the secret ⬇️

Group Composites.

Unlike a traditional group photo — where someone inevitably blinks, looks away, or just isn’t loving their angle — a composite lets me select the best shot of each person individually.

Here’s how it works:

✔️ I photograph each person separately

✔️ Pick their most flattering image

✔️ Edit each headshot to perfection

✔️ Combine them into one cohesive, polished group portrait

The result? A picture-perfect team photo where everyone looks amazing — no retakes, no stress.
