I'm Reed, a photographer, educator, and strategic communications expert.

I started my photography business at just 15 years old. I didn’t have a driver's license & my mom had to drive me to every session. But despite all the challenges, I’ve grown RGP into something I could have only imagined for myself! Now, I have developed a team to serve Houston seniors and document their biggest milestones.

My goal is to help you feel confident whether you are a senior in front of the camera or a photographer behind the camera looking to grow your business.

I'm so glad you're here!

Hey there!

Years ago…

I walked into Costco and bought a $300 camera when I was 15 years old. Between homework assignments & tennis matches, I developed my brand as a senior photographer.

Growing a business is no easy task, especially when you are a student. Not only was I a student in high school, but I became a photography student in my free time - investing every penny I made from shoots into developing my education as a photographer and business owner.

Now in 2022, I have a team that helps me serve over 60 seniors every year and I help photographers grow their senior program and business.

Whether you're a senior or photographer:

I'm here to help you take that next step, create something special, and celebrate along the way.

Aly not only is a photographer, she is also a Private Editor for the RGP Team. She has always been a lover of all things photography-related, so back in 2017, she decided to take the plunge and officially join the industry. Aly has been head-over-heels in love with the industry since then. 
 
She started her career as a photographer and quickly found a passion for editing. Aly noticed that many photographers were wanting extra assistance with editing to ensure consistency and speed for their clients' wedding galleries.

As a former ballerina, she discovered two years ago a passion in photography that she never knew she had, largely because it reminded her of her dancing days. Posing is like choreography to her, and composition relates to the careful placement of her arms and legs as she moved her body, creating beautiful lines and shapes. Jordan truly cherishes the tangible memories photography produces and desires to gift others with images that will contribute to the legacy they leave behind. She also is passionate about making others feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera because she has been in their shoes and knows how hard it can be! When Jordan isn’t busy with photography, she absolutely loves to hit up local coffee shops with her husband, Chase. She also enjoys rewatching The Office on the couch with her fluffy labradoodle, Pippin. If you want a photographer who can also be your personal cheerleader, Jordan is your girl!

At some point in your RGP journey, you will receive emails from Cameron and maybe an encouraging text to cheer you on. She will tell you the highlight of working at RGP is attending senior sessions and being there for the experience.. Rest assured when you are in front of Reed’s camera your necklace will be straight, she will remind you to take that scrunchie off your wrist and she will carry all your belongings so you can relax and enjoy your session. 
 
When she is not working, you will find her on the tennis court. She enjoys reading and curling up to Council of Dads or Friends with a blanket and a mug of hot chocolate. She has been married for 22 year and loves to travel! She loves Jesus and has poured out every ounce of her being into raising her two children. Cameron promises that the RGP team will welcome you into their lives, treat you like family and capture all your special moments along the way!

Brittani has been photographing weddings since 2015 and loves how rewarding this job is. She loves that she gets to document the best day of her couples' lives and hopes to give them beautiful photos that they can look back on even in fifty years and still remember every feeling they felt that day. Being what most would call a hopeless romantic, her favorite moments to document on wedding days are the sweet, intimate moments between the couple... and she may or may not be known to cry during the toasts. On a Friday night when she's not out shooting a wedding, you can probably find her on the couch cuddled up with her fiancee and their pup, with a glass of red wine in hand, and a One Tree Hill or Grey's Anatomy marathon running on the TV.

Our Unique Approach to Your Senior Experience

Our storytelling approach to photography turns the moments we share today into a story that lives on, so you can revisit the details and emotions of your special moments + leave a legacy that is worthy of being passed on. 

With this philosophy, I get to capture one of the moments of life for high school (and college!) seniors in Houston, TX and help them intentionally craft a legacy that is worthy of being passed on. 

Because I believe your unique story is meant to be shared and cultivated. And I consider it a pure joy to share your legacy of happiness, laughter, faith, and love of celebrating.

THE RGP SENIOR

Personality

We want your senior photos to represent YOU. Our goal is to bring out your personality & capture a true reflection of you in each photograph.

Stylish

Confident

What you wear is a big part of who you are. Our seniors show who they are through their outfits, whether it is hot pink boots or their senior letterman jacket.

First time in front of the camera? No problem. We make sure all of our seniors feel their absolute best during their sessions so they can show their confidence.
