Voting only takes a minute or two and starts on Monday, Nov 17th – Dec 12th 2025.




That’s it—easy peasy. Your vote is in, and it truly means a lot. 🙏
If you’re part of a team I’ve photographed, please share this with your colleagues—every vote counts.
Thank you again for all of your support this year!
After successfully casting your vote for both categories, you should see this.

As I look back on this year, the thing I’m most grateful for isn’t an award or a number on a spreadsheet—it’s the people I’ve had the chance to photograph.
I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve heard some version of, “I’ve never liked a photo of myself,” right before we start. And I’ve lost count of how many times those same people have left saying, “I didn’t know I could actually take a good headshot.”

That shift—from doubt to confidence—is the reason I do this.
One moment that will stay with me forever is a client who lost his eye in a tragic bottle rocket accident as a child. With his permission, we created a headshot that honored who he is today—strong, professional, and fully himself. He told me it was an image he never thought he’d ever see. That kind of trust is something I don’t take lightly.

This year alone, I’ve created hundreds of headshots where people finally saw a polished, professional version of themselves that actually felt like them. Not overly retouched. Not fake. Just confident, clear, and real.
It has been an honor to help each and every person who has stepped in front of my camera—whether it was for a single headshot, a full team, or a corporate event. I’m deeply thankful to God for the opportunity to do this work and for the clients who allow me to keep doing what I love.
No matter what happens with the Best Business of West Austin awards, I’m excited to keep serving more people and more teams in 2026 and beyond.
But if my work has made a difference for you, your vote truly would mean a lot.

If you’re a company or a business leader in Austin looking to upgrade your team’s visual presence — that’s exactly what I specialize in. I don’t just take photos. I create brand-ready imagery that makes people stop, look, and trust.
Let’s talk about how to bring this level of quality to your team.
