Houston Senior Photographer

Parents, through every art project stuck to the fridge, every after-school sport or performance, you have watched in awe as your teeny-tiny baby grew into someone spectacular. Now, it’s time to celebrate one more milestone before they leave home.

And seniors! You can laugh at your sappy parents all you want, but this is a huge deal for all of you! You deserve a chance to shine a little light on everything you’ve achieved (and maybe give Mom a tight hug because she’s definitely tearing up behind those sunglasses watching her baby pose for senior photos).

Together, we’ll create gorgeous images to capture who you are and last a lifetime.

First off, you’ve got enough going on, so trust the planning to me. I’ll share guidance and inspo to get you brainstorming, then I’ll customize your senior portrait session totally to you—the locations, the vibe, the season. As a senior photographer in Houston and The Woodlands, I’ve created for more than 15 years, so I’ve got tons of favorite spots and recommendations to make your senior session completely Y O U R S.

Meet maria Snider, senior photographer in the woodlands

Oh hiiii! I’ve got my camera and a whole bunch of excitement to make your session ah-maz-ing

I’m a mom to three boys ranging in age from early teens to early-20s, and let me tell you, there is nothing better than getting to work with teens. For real. I adore how interesting and passionate y’all are about the things you love, and I absolutely jump at the chance to cheer you on and pump you up during our photo session. Plus, getting to work with teen girls lets me bring out my inner teen girl, and I am never ever going to say no to gushing about outfits and makeup and tv and… (you get the picture).

Parents, you can keep scrolling.

Okay, is it just us? I hear this all the time from other seniors like you… 

“I just don’t want to look stupid.” 

I get it. I don’t like it either. That’s why I make sure to give you outfit advice, 

location recs, and easy prompts while we’re in our session to help you feel like 

the most confident version of you. And here’s the important part: if we ever take 

a photo and you don’t like how you look, I’ll delete it. Poof. It’s gone. So let’s 

have some fun and get amazing photos while we’re at it. Deal?

“My son wanted a photographer who took a lot of guy pics and Maria did not disappoint! Maria was very responsive, helped us with outfit ideas, gave us time to do some family photos and made my son feel very comfortable. The moment we got home he wanted to find her on Instagram because he was so excited to see the pics (and he hates getting his pic taken!). Thank you so much for a wonderful senior picture experience!” —Brenda V.
