senior photographer
Just hop online and do a quick search of senior photography (or any industry really) and you'll quickly become overwhelmed with options for courses, masterminds, templates, resources, and more. It has never been easier to jump feet first into a new industry, niche, or marketplace than in today's digital age. But how do you know what you need, if anything, education-wise? Or would hire an assistant[...]
It's been a wild year here at KDP, rather two and a half years. Let's rewind real quick and take it from the beginning. March 2011: I officially launched Kody Diane Photography, after learning the ropes of my new DSLR camera. I shot one senior session in that period and knew that was it for me. I had a career I was never sure I wanted or needed. For the next 9.5 years, I grew, expanded, and thr[...]

I loved the fun change of pace I got to enjoy with Kara’s session! Kara is actually a college senior who took advantage of our on-location college petite sessions (I offer these when at least four girls book on the same weekend). It might seem like a novel idea to have professional portraits done in college, but I highly encourage every young woman to do so…you change so much between high scho[...]
The perfect outfit...does it really exist? We say yes, it does. The trick is having a ton of staple pieces that you're totally in love with, and adding in accessories to amp up some neutrals that you wear every day. Your budget may not allow for a new top or dress for every occasion in your high school years (hello, you're saving for college!), but you don't need to purchase something new, when th[...]
It’s no secret that here in Texas, we have warm weather for the majority of the year. Even though our temperatures are on the warmer side, we still love the changing of the seasons as much as the rest of the country. My clients love the different scenery and foliage that come out throughout the year, and Payton (being the fashionista that she is), loves the different outfits too! I knew she was[...]
Sweet, joyful, and thoughtful. That’s Ava! Of course, when you look through her session, those are the first things that come to mind. It was such a joy to take pictures of her, and capture her unique spirit forever (or, as long as digital photos last)! The lighting was gorgeous that day, and we made a point of visiting a number of nature spots to take advantage of it. Ava has a wonderful grasp[...]
The first thing you notice when you meet Claire is her amazing, captivating blue eyes! I couldn’t wait to get her in front of the lens. They were simply stunning, and she had a personality and sweet spirit to match their beauty. This senior is from McCallum High School, and she loves living in Austin, saying, "I love the art scene, live music and the quirky coffee shops”. She is very[...]
