Austin Goswick and his alluring models

One of the great tips that I received from our celebrated photographers was to keep the crew as small as possible. Having too many people running around might dissipate the focus on the main elements, which eventually hurts the quality. Photographer Austin Goswick played it smart by bringing just 2 models to his set in stage C and thus having great minimalistic clean shots.

He was recently featured in Real Leaders Magazine, American Gas Association, Houston Chronicle, Heights Magazine in 2015. “

Our stage C features large South and East facing windows, with lots of natural light.
