Kim Hancock
Kim has never considered herself just one thing. She is an artist, an author, a storyteller, a mother, a hopeless romantic, a Texan, a journalist, an animal lover, a college graduate, a friend, a nice person, a grandmother, a natualist, a computer geek, a wife, a perpetual learner, and the list goes on and on.
So, what sets her apart from other photographers? The answer has to be the wisdom and love that comes from the myriad of experiences she has had in her life and the ability to see that although the kiss is very very important it is the split second before and after the kiss that tells the story.
Emily Roberson
LightWorx Studio creates one of a kind Photographic art using a technique called “Painting with Light”. This technique is done in the camera and not in Photoshop. Using a Tripod, an extended exposure and lots of light painting tools, I will “Paint” a creation that you will love! To be clear there is no actual Paint involved. It is a photograph and the Paint is the Light and the canvas is your vehicle and I will "paint" it without ever touching it.

Wife. Mother. Daughter. Those are titles that people may use to define you, but what’s your name? Who are you? During our time together, we’ll explore who you are. Your session will celebrate the vision that you have of yourself, and show the world that a title doesn’t define who you are as a woman.
