We’re Willie & Kim, a husband and wife portrait and film team who make fun, professional, authentic photography a priority for every client. We believe that every photo and frame should capture the memories you’ve created and communicate the true essence of who you are. We love to take a super customized approach to all of our senior portrait photography. After all, this is about YOU.
Cost is the first thing that most people ask about. Don’t let the price be a roadblock to getting the look and experience you want! These are your photos. Make a choice that won’t leave you with photo envy or regret.
"Wow, you will be blown away by the photos that Mr. Howard captures in his sessions. My son's senior pictures and his baseball pictures are moments captured that will be treasured forever. He goes above and beyond to get that perfect shot and absolutely caters to what you want from the photo session. We challenged him to include my son's dog in some of the photos and those are some of the sweetest pictures that I have ever seen. Mr. Howard's photos tell a story in a chapter of my son's life and show his personality perfectly. The passion that Mr. Howard has for photography is 100% evident, he is a true artist and I truly appreciate the time and photos that he took of my son. Definitely, 5 Stars!!!!!"

"Willie Howard is our “go to” photographer! He has a great eye, is very professional and very personable. He allowed us to add an impromptu family session in with my son’s senior pictures being taken that day and we had a great time during the shoot! ALL of our images turned out GREAT and we’re looking forward to our next family session this year."

I am always amazed at how beautifully and truly he captures the individuals and the moments. His thoughtful approach and attention to detail has resulted in photos that we will treasure always. Thank you, Willie Howard, for helping us preserve and share our milestones and memories!"

In order to reserve a date, you will sign some paperwork and pay a session fee of $150. If we haven't already, the easiest way to compare calendars is for you to email or call us with a few dates that work for your family - We always try to be as flexible as possible, and once we find a date, booking is 100% online and takes just a few minutes. As you pull out your calendar, here are a few things to consider:
• Given the beautiful colors and temperate weather, spring and fall are the busiest times of year for senior photos in Texas. If you'd like a session during one of those times (ESPECIALLY if you want a weekend spot), please get in touch as soon as possible!
• If you have a particular date or holiday by which you need prints or gifts (Mother's Day, Father's Day, Hanukkah, Christmas, etc.), be sure to book a date at least one month in advance of that date to ensure sufficient processing and printing time.
• Beautiful photographs can be made in any kind of weather, but we understand that there are some downsides to being photographed in the pouring rain or the freezing cold. We can and do reschedule sessions for inclement weather, but are also happy to use your home or recommend indoor locations if sticking to the schedule is a priority. Many of these locations require a rental fee.
Once we've decided on a time and date and officially put your session on the books, we'll send you a getting ready guide that will walk you through everything from choosing outfits to strategies for getting seniors to cooperate. That guide has been created and refined over years of experience, so it typically answers 90% of the questions that come up, but we're always happy to set up a time to chat if you want additional help.
A few days before our session is scheduled, we'll reach out to confirm our time and location... at that point, if the forecast is questionable or someone seems to be coming down with the flu, we can talk about our rescheduling options. Otherwise, that's the perfect time to ask any last-minute questions or let us know if you've come up with a fun idea we haven't discussed.
The day of the session, please block off 2-2.5 hours. Typically, we're done within 90 minutes or so, but we don't charge by the hour, so if there's some kind of wardrobe malfunction or meltdown, we like to stay flexible.
Finally, take a breath and relax... we promise to make the session as painless as possible for everyone involved.

Choice of 10 high resolution digital files with print release
Within just a couple of weeks of your session, you'll receive an email from us letting you know that your photos are ready. Once you've had a chance to see them and marvel for a bit, you'll let us know which collection you want to purchase. After that, you'll have a full month to select the specific digital files and print items you want to use to fill that collection... zero pressure!
What you're going to do with your images is perhaps the most important aspect to consider when you're planning for a photo session, but it's all too often the aspect that's overlooked... all that time and money invested deserve a better return than photos gathering dust on a hard drive somewhere. You'll never get the same feeling looking at your photos on a screen as you will seeing them on your wall or flipping through the pages of an album, so we include a substantial gift credit with every collection.
Below is a sample of some of the items you can choose among:
Printed on Fine Art LexJet paper and set under a clear acrylic with a glossy finish, featuring polished edges for
a modern looking display.
Your favorite images are professionally printed on archival quality photo paper with your choice of a semi-gloss or deep matte finish. These full bleed prints are available in a variety
of sizes, and are perfect for framing and hanging on the wall
or giving as a special gift.
These beautiful hardwood frames will protect your prints from damage and help them look their very best in a spot for everyone to enjoy. Frames come in your choice of white, black, walnut, natural, or barnwood, and arrive ready to hang with all necessary hardware included.
These premium albums are printed on high-end matte photo paper with thick, lay flat pages. Layout and design options are limited only by your imagination, and can be further customized with your choice of linen covers
and custom foiled letters.
These fine art canvas wraps are printed directly onto museum-quality canvas using archival ink. A sleek natural wrap creates beautiful image continuity, adding dimension to your photo.
These canvases arrive ready to hang with black paper backing, sawtooth hangers, and bumpers.
