Seek Hidden Gems: Explore beyond the obvious spots; downtown Houston is brimming with unique locations. From historic Market Square Park to vibrant Arts District murals, diverse backgrounds add character and charm to your portraits.
Chase the Golden Hour: Timing is key. Schedule your shoot during the golden hour, just after sunrise or before sunset, for warm, soft light that enhances the cityscape. It adds a natural, enchanting ambiance to your images.
Blend Urban and Personal Style: Encourage subjects to mix urban elements with their personal style. Modern architecture complements various looks, creating visually compelling portraits that tell a story about both the individual and the city.
Embrace Dynamic Backgrounds: Incorporate the city's energy into your shots by using dynamic backgrounds like busy streets or blurred city lights. These elements add excitement, capturing the essence of urban life in every frame.
Connect with Your Subject: Build a rapport to capture genuine moments. Engage in conversation, share laughs, and let your subject's personality shine through candid shots. The connection enhances the authenticity of your portraits.
