Athlete Portraits in Frisco & DFW

Sports portraits with studio-style lighting, shot at your field or gym. Good for recruiting profiles, socials, and signing day.

Get in touch

Portraits for athletes, gym rats, and anyone building a brand around their sport. I bring studio lights to your field or gym and tell you exactly what to do, so you never feel stiff. Shot around Frisco and all over DFW.

Senior athlete? A senior-athlete session is the same price as a senior portrait, just with sports gear and recruiting-ready frames included. Start at the senior portraits page if that’s you.

Session types
#

Individual athlete session
#

For athletes who want photos that look as good on a recruiting profile as they do on Instagram.

Media day / team day
#

Fast, consistent portraits of a whole roster, so everyone’s photos match. Clubs, high school teams, and leagues all work. The media day guide covers how it runs, and team pricing is a message away.

Underwater athlete session
#

Probably not something your teammates have on their recruiting profiles. Pair it with a full land session and the combo is $1,000. See the underwater session page.

What you get
#

  • Every good frame lightly edited, plus your favorites fully retouched
  • Vertical and square crops for socials
  • A few shots framed with room for text, for posters and banners
  • The same lighting look across the whole set
  • A private online gallery

More athlete work is in the athlete galleries.

Real questions

Things people ask

Can you shoot on location?
Yes, at your field, gym, or training facility. I bring my own lights, so the photos look polished even in a dim gym.
Do you do recruiting portraits?
Yes. We’ll get a clean set that works on recruiting profiles, plus a few made for your commitment post.
Can I bring my uniform and equipment?
Yes, please. Bring your game uniform and the gear that matters to you: helmet, bat, ball, medals, your lucky cleats.
Are there sports you can't shoot?
None for portraits. A handful for live competition. My insurance won’t cover me shooting rodeo, horseback riding, motorsports, climbing, skateboarding, skiing, snowboarding, bike jumping, water sports, or combat sports like wrestling, boxing and martial arts while they’re actually happening. Your session is unaffected either way. If you wrestle, we still shoot you in the singlet on the mat. I just can’t be there during the match. If your sport isn’t on that list, ask me and I’ll check the policy.
Do you work with teams?
Yes, I’m open to media days and team days for clubs, schools, and leagues. Pricing depends on the roster size, so message me with the details.
Senior athlete? How does pricing work?
Same as any senior session: $400 for the full hour or $250 for 30 minutes. It’s a senior session with your gear and some recruiting shots mixed in.
What about an underwater athlete set?
Yes. Pair it with a full athlete session and the combo is $1,000 instead of $1,150. The underwater page has the rest.
If my athlete is under 18, do I need to be there?
Yes, the whole time. You don’t have to be in any shots. Most parents grab a seat on the bleachers and watch.
Can we keep my athlete's photos off social media?
Yes. The recruiting and highlight shots are yours either way. On my end the default is that I post a few, so tell me you’d rather I didn’t and I won’t. Anything already up comes down if you ask, even after a release is signed.

Got a season coming up?

Tell me your sport, your school, and when you need the photos by.
