Our Story

Welcome to Photography by Marc Meyers. I began my love of photography as a year book photographer for my junior high school. I was fortunate to be accepted to and attend Houston's acclaimed High School for the Performing and Visual Arts. I studied Media Technology with a focus on photography and film. The wonderful staff and teachers at HSPVA instilled a love of the arts that has followed me my whole life. After graduating PVA, I study photography and worked at the University of Texas Heath Science Center and Baylor College of Medicine. I mentored under some of the best medical photographers and film makers in the world. I truly learned what light does to silver halide. I quickly discovered my true talent was photographing people and began shooting portraits and weddings. After relocating to Austin TX in 1985, I joined the staff of Accent Studio. A year later I bought the studio and began a 12 year career in Austin where I shot thousands of portraits and weddings and became one of the premier outdoor portrait photographers in Texas. I switched careers in 1997 and have missed photography every day since I quit. The finance and insurance industry was good for the bank account to but horrible to the soul. For the past 17 years I have been shooting for myself and a few close friends. I have recently made the decision to return to shooting professionally and once again offer my creative, professional, and artistic services. Photography has always been my first love. I believe in capturing the essence of a person in a portrait and not just a reflection of light. A portrait should evoke emotion and feeling and say something about the person being photographed. Wedding photography should capture the emotion of the day and elicit feelings every time the images are looked at. And the images should be technically perfect. So many photographers today rely on technology and volume to capture a few good images but photography is so much more. it is an art medium which takes years to master and a tremendous education in the field to truly achieve the ability to capture not just light, but art, emotion, passion, and the true essence of a subject. Like music, a photograph should say what words can’t. If you have any photographic needs in the future, please consider giving us a shot so to speak.
