What Folks Are Saying

  • Family walking in a forest holding hands, surrounded by green foliage.

    Caitlin Theobald

    Tex took family photos for us just before Christmas this year and I am in love with every single one of them!!! Not only was Tex extremely professional but he also made the experience feel natural and fun! If you are a parent of young children, you know how powerful that is! After spending just a few minutes together, he took the time to learn about us and even was willing to travel to another location that was significant to our story. With this attention to detail and creativity, he truly captured the spirit of our family!!

    Aside from his talent in photography, he even surprised us by having the photos to us within days despite it being the holidays! I feel that Tex went above and beyond for us and I’m so grateful that he was able to capture these moments that we will never forget.

    I would recommend Tex to anyone looking for any kind of photography or cinematography needs!!! Thank you, Tex!!!! You made our holiday!!!

    Bethany Rogers

    Tex is a brilliant photographer and an absolute joy to work with! He recently took our engagement photos and the final products exceeded our expectations in every way. Not only are the photos stunning, but the entire experience was so much fun! Tex went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera which was so important as my fiancé and I are pretty shy folks. Tex even scheduled multiple sessions at different locations throughout the day that hold special meaning to us, which made both the experience and the photos turn out just perfect. He was great at giving us prompts and pose ideas that felt very natural for us and made the entire process very relaxing. He even shared some sneak peak photos with us the day after and we’re so excited to make a photo album with his work!

    Tex's talent, creativity, and attention to detail shine through in every photo. He has a gift for capturing the beauty and emotion of a moment, and we feel so grateful to have him as a part of our journey. If you're looking for a photographer who will deliver breathtaking photos and make the experience enjoyable and stress-free, look no further than Tex! We can't recommend him enough.

    I was the Executive Director for a Nonprofit and we needed to raise $10,000 in 30 days. I asked if Tex could consult us on how we could implement a marketing plan. We had one meeting and Tex's advice and mentorship gave us the confidence, tools and strategies to achieve the fundraising task. We used his suggested strategies and raised $13,000 in 29 days! The money was used for an international project to buy a school in Uganda. Highly recommend Tex for business consulting! Very knowledgable.
