Life is always happening and documenting real stories doesn’t need to feel boring or staged. In fact, it shouldn’t.
“Phenomenal photographer”
– Laura A.
AUTHENTIC • SPONTANEOUS • EMOTIONAL
Since 2009, I’ve been capturing real, authentic family moments and as a documentary photographer in Spring, TX, my goal is to see moments within moments, genuine, unscripted interactions that reflect the true essence of each family. I’ve developed my own techniques to capture the most powerful images that come from natural connections. I strive to create memories that families will treasure for years to come – photography you’ll fall in love with!
Nice to meet you. I’m Wendell (my friends call me Dell), a Christ follower, husband of one, father of three and since I was 5 years old, “capturing moments” was an actual game I played inside my head.
It meant that every time “blinked” at a certain object, I was indeed “locking” those moments to live them again in the future… little did I know, that was called “photography” and I was loving it.
Things got really serious in 2009 when I picked up my first Canon T3i and a 18-55mm kit lens and never looked back.
Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to travel the world, got to know and capture amazing family moments I’d never thought possible, photographed some of the most exquisite weddings, documented life in the jungles of Peru and mentored thousands of photographers.
Photography is an extension of what I see and an expression of who I am.
“Beautiful. Amazing. Breath taking. Creative. These are some of the words that come out of my mouth when I see his work. He is so talented at capturing the joy in people. The BIGGEST reason I LOVE his work is because somehow he is able to get “real” pictures. I have always liked candid photos the most and he seems to be able to get the real life, perfect pictures. I would recommend Wendell to anyone looking for fantastic images!”

“I was looking for some unique senior pictures with a creative twist to them and I was not disappointed. He was extremely accommodating when working out schedules and had great communication with me to make sure I got what I was looking for. The shoot went great! We went on a cloudy day and he still managed to make the pictures come out gorgeous. He is a pro and strives to capture personalities and has got “the eye” for getting great pictures out of any location. Couldn’t be happier.”

“My husband and I feel extremely lucky to have had Wendell as our wedding photographer. Not only his style is unique, but he truly is passionate about what he does and his passion shows through his amazing work. He makes you feel very comfortable which allows him to capture real moments and this is what I love most about Wendell. His pictures transmit feelings and they allow you to relive each and every moment of your special day.“

This is the foundation of everything I do, how I see and choose to live life. This has been the cornerstone of any session I get to experience with my friends and what helps me understand people.
The most important aspect of creating amazing imagery is at the core – relationships. From the first message to the emails, calls, day of the shoot and long after. I focus on building true connections.
"Look here and smile" is not what you should expect, far from it actually. My focus has always been to capture moments within moments and those are the ones we tend to remember most.
