Frequently Asked Questions
BEAUTIFUL PORTRAITS, CONVENIENT PROCESS
Where are you located?
My family and I have lived in the Houston area since 2011. Our studio is located in the heart of Houston, where Downtown neets Midtown. Conveniently located just off Allen Parkway, we are minutes from I-10 & I-45. We also offer complete location flexibility and will travel for your photography session.
What is Parking Like?
Don't worry. We have a VIP reserved spot JUST FOR YOU! Pull up right in front of our door into your personal parking space, and one of our team members will be there to assist you from the moment you pull into the parking space.
When can I see my photos?
Depending on the session, we will either review your images immediately after photographing, or we will schedule a follow up appointment to select images the week following your session. Either way, you won't have to wait long at all!
I don't love that I'm getting older. Will you edit the photos?
Yes we will. Your portraits will give you such a confidence boost, even before retouching. Our Posing and Lighting expertise will reduce the need for too much extra work.
Still, every image that leaves our studio receives judicious retouching to ensure we highlight the best of you, while minimiizing the other stuff... We want you to look like the very best version of you!
How much do you charge for a session?
On your discovery call, we can understand which session type is going to serve you best. Our clients typically invest between $1500 to $15,000 or more, depending on taste and budget.
We take time to learn about your goals and desires for how you plan to enjoy or use your images and help you find the best solution to achieve your goals.
Does the session have to be in your studio?
Our studio is where we are most efficient, plus it's very comfortable for those warm or wet Houston days. However, we do offer location flexibility for our custom sessions, so that could include photography at your home, or on location at a place that is meaningful to you.
Our premium experience allows us to photograph in up to 3 locations. This is perfect for personal branding, graduates, or simply having that “Model for a Day” experience.
My family can be a bit rowdy, will you be able to accommodate for my children?
As a father of young children, I am used to a little bit of chaos all the time. Our process is designed to make everyone in your family happy and comfortable, even dad. We work with intention to capture all the special moments, while giving your kids (or husband) space to enjoy the experience.
How can I get more information about working with you?
A phone call allows us to understand your needs best, so we can provide you with just the right experience. So let’s talk! You can schedule a complimentary phone consultation here.
