Hello From Houston!
A LITTLE ABOUT ME AND MY WORK
I'm a professional fashion photographer based in Houston, Texas and the founder of Image Theory Photoworks. With seven years in the industry, multiple international awards, and a prior career managing large projects, I have the experience to handle jobs of any size.
Our work primarily involves commercial fashion photography and styled model portfolios.
COMMERCIAL FASHION PHOTOGRAPHY
For my clients, including designers and retailers, I shoot lookbooks, catalogs, point-of-sale art, and high-impact advertising images. I've worked for clients based on all three coasts and the Far East. While I am adept at studio work and have extensive knowledge of studio lighting. I am equally at ease shooting on location. My location work has taken me from the stylish streets of the Houston River Oaks district and Galleria to the eerie darkness of the largest laser tag arene in the U.S. to the dusty industrial decay of a century-old, abandoned sugar mill. For one client, I transformed ordinary photos of a fashion model and a framed impressionist painting into the believable illusion of a surreal walk through a fantasy meadow, -- a work published in Forbes, Vogue, and dozens of other publications, worldwide.
If your brand needs creative and dramatic images, I'd love to connect.

While Upwork requires listing an hourly fee, I prefer a fixed rate. For commercial clients, my rate covers preparation, consultation, studio time, and standard editing. An 8-hour commercial shoot costs $2000, and involves at least four days of work. Because four 8-hour days at $75 per hour would be $2400, the flat rate results in a savings of at least $400.
𝐅𝐀𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐎𝐍 𝐌𝐎𝐃𝐄𝐋 𝐏𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐅𝐎𝐋𝐈𝐎𝐒
For my fashion model clients, I work to create portfolios that help advance their careers. We specialize in fully styled shoots that allow models to demonstrate the range and versatility that fashion industry professionals value. The portfolio examples here and on my website will give you a good idea of the range of looks you can expect in a shoot.

Portfolio shoots typically significantly less costly than commercial shoot because the time and demands are less. Portfolio shoots are custom priced based on the model’s needs.
Thank you for stopping by. If you have a few more minutes, please look at my portfolio. If my approach might fit your needs, I'd love to chat.
REVIEWS:
Nearly all my work is from referrals, not from Upwork. Consequently, there is only one review, here.
There are reviews of my work on my Google Business page and on my website. You can locate both both with minimal effort.
