Finding Magic in the Mundane: A Snow Day in Austin

Austin rarely sees snow, but when it does, it transforms the ordinary into something extraordinary. As an editorial photographer, I’ve learned that the most compelling stories aren’t about perfect locations—they’re about vision, creativity, and the ability to see potential where others see limitations. 

I rolled out of bed and ran out as soon as I saw our backyard glistening in winter. A fun fact about me is that I’m an Austinite that enjoys the cold and layering. While most adults saw another cold morning, I saw an opportunity to experiment. It’s a perfect metaphor for my approach to photography: taking what’s given and elevating it beyond expectations.

Why Creativity Matters in Photography

My background has taught me that photography is about perspective. Whether I’m working with advertising agencies, magazines, or personal branding clients, I bring:

  • An experienced eye for transforming mundane scenes into extraordinary narratives
  • Deep understanding and love of color theory and matching colors up through fashion and props
  • Professional adaptability that turns constraints into creative opportunities

What Sets Me Apart

As a creative branding and lifestyle photographer in Austin, I am a storyteller. My professional experience has honed my ability to:

  • Collaborate seamlessly with teams
  • Understand and exceed client expectations
  • Create playful visual narratives

Saturation Actually Matters (And No, Gray Isn’t Always The Answer)

Let’s talk about the elephant in the room since 2020: that sea of gray, white, and black in photography we’re drowning in. And no, I’m not talking about black and white photography. 

As an editorial and advertising photographer in Austin, I see it everywhere.
And here’s the thing – choosing these colors just because “that’s what professional looks like” isn’t doing you any favors.

I’ve seen countless business owners choose this route and still miss the mark on looking professional. 

Want to know why? Because it’s not about the colors – it’s about who’s capturing your story through that lens.

This isn’t me throwing shade at other photographers (pun intended). This is about finding someone who can tell your authentic story, whether that’s in vibrant color or sophisticated black and white. 

Your visual choices should be intentional, not just a run-of-the-mill web designer said was “standard.”

It’s 2025, folks. Time to ditch the mindset that muted tones automatically equal professionalism. 


What actually makes you look professional? High-end photography that captures your essence and leads people to engage with your message and with YOU.


Fun fact: A fashion industry friend told me these neutral palettes gained popularity because they felt safe during uncertain times. And that’s valid – when it’s intentional. 

You’re not just a neutral feeling. You’re vibrant. You have layers. Yes, like Shrek.

This is where I come in. As an Austin-based editorial and fashion photographer working with both local and national publications, I specialize in:

  • Uncovering those genuine layers of your brand
  • Creating intentional set design with strategic props and locations
  • Implementing color theory before the shot (because getting it right in-camera beats post-processing every time)

P.S. If you’ve read this far – I’m dropping a special New Year’s refresh offering next week in my newsletter.

Crafting Magic Through the Lens: Your Austin Fashion + Editorial Photographer

Happy 2025! I’m buzzing with excitement after updating my website to share how my photography has evolved to serve Austin’s creative community. My sweet spot is editorial photography, where fashion, advertising, and intentional branding merge into visual storytelling that makes you FEEL. 


What Sets My Photography Apart

I’m that Austin photographer who is known for creating magazine-worthy images. You might spot my work on Austin Woman magazine covers or in other Texas publications, where I use my secret sauce in every shot – whether you’re a celebrity or just an amazing human being with a story to tell and an established business and brand on your shoulders.


I’ve given my portfolio a thoughtful refresh through intentionally selected work:

Projects: Where my favorite fashion, lifestyle, and editorial photography live.

Portraits: Editorial-style branding and headshots with an extra dose of extraordinary.

Assignments: Real-world magic for amazing clients like Anthropologie and the Greater Austin. Asian Chamber of Commerce. Think editorial event coverage for established brands and organizations.

Publications: My published work and gallery features that make my heart sing



Here’s a quick run down of the professional photography services I offer:

  • Fashion Campaign Photography: Bringing your clothing collections to life through lookbooks and campaigns that make hearts skip a beat.
  • Advertising Photography: Creating eye-catching highly-conceptual photography for advertising agencies and PR firms seeking that special something or a little of that wide-open sky, ranch, and cow magic.
  • Brand Photography: Weaving backstories and a brand owner’s story together to create a vibrant set of images they can use for their websites and social media. Established businesses shine even brighter when they choose to do a rebranding photography session with me.
  • Editorial Photography: Strategic storytelling is one of my superpowers. I can tell your story in ways words simply can’t whether there’s an assignment you need coverage for, profiles for people you need featured in a magazine, local Austin eateries and restaurants you need coverage for, I got you covered. You can also think streetstyle fashion photography and event coverage for magazines.
