March 19, 2026Fantastic photos
Billy was an exceptional photographer and great to deal with. His attention to detail and all the photos he took was amazing. Couldn’t recommend Billy enough. His style of photography was exactly what I wanted captured, in the moment, action shots versus posed traditional style photos. Hire Billy, you won’t regret it. Can’t wait to work with him again.

July 22, 2024Amazing job went above and beyond!!
Billy was amazing and so flexible. Our cosplay took a long time to get on and he was so patient and took photos of us getting ready. Our photos looked so amazing and we found the perfect spots and then Billy did the rest. He found great angles and shadows that really accentuated our Halo cosplay. He suggested great poses and was interested in listening to our lore and backstories. Great professional photos and such an amazing job. Will definitely book Billy again next time we’re ready to take pictures!

June 30, 2024Beautiful baby photos
We hired Billy on a couple of occasions to take photos of our baby. The photos he took of our baby are some of our favorites. He captured the magic in every day moments. We will definitely hire him again.

June 28, 2024Incredibly talented and very easy to work with
Baque photography has gone above and beyond. If you want a great photographer that can be a fly on the wall and still capture your special moments, then, you’ll get that from Baque Photography. On time courteous and accommodating. When I was sent the photos after a very important gathering of the minds I was very happy to see the quality of the images at such a high standard. I was very happy that he was able to capture the feeling of the event with a deeply emotional touch while capturing all the action. He delivered on time and above expectation. Two thumbs way up!

What to expect
I’ve photographed all sorts of events. From first birthdays to government functions. Before the event I’ll have you tell me an overview of exactly what you want photographed and what to focus my attention on. I always try to be as invisible as possible and not to disturb the flow of the event. In a portrait session I’ll want to know what the photo will be used for to tailor the final photograph for that purpose.
About
Hi, I’m Billy Baque. I’m originally from a tiny town in Southeast Texas. I learned to take pictures selling five dollar Polaroids in bars and restaurants in Austin Tx, then I did corporate photography in the Bay Area before getting into BTS work in Hollywood. Now I’m mostly doing high end parties and events. If you like what you see, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
