Atelier Hébert

HTX Folks! We are moving soon and are unable to take our nearly 40 plants. I decided to create a charity sale that benefits a community that has been so good to us, 50% of all proceeds will go to @southernsmoketx - a nonprofit benefiting hospitality workers in need! LINK TO STORE IN BIO!! All plants can be delivered contactless to you or you can pickup at @bl4cksmith next week. Glad to partner with @greenwaycoffee and @greenwaybarista, thanks to @analogdialog for graphix help.

I first met Simon strangely enough while I was judging a latte art throw down for charity at @morningstarhou. He was living in another city at the time but started commuting to Houston for work soon thereafter. He has since become a dear friend and he’s one of the few people to sit multiple times at the atelier. So just for fun his second frame is from the second sitting. I miss being able to have people into the studio to sit and converse as I make portraits. Hopefully soon covid will pass and it will be safe again. The people that sat with me, the conversations we had, and the art y’all left on the chalkboard truly is a daily reminder how blessed I am to photograph people.

Daily reminder to take a deep breath and center yourself it’s all gonna be fine. Gonna post a couple more of Vita because if she didn’t dress for the atelier aesthetic then I don’t know who has. Not only has she led yoga practices but she also saves lives in healthcare. The portraits glow as much as she does, daily, she is, and has been saving lives. To the true heroines keeping us safe and healthy

@jroloka stopped by @atelierhebert while I was shooting portraits of @jp_nwo and took this video of me shooting (sound on for some @hasselblad ASMR when I hit the shutter button)
