Lights Camera Action

Foto54 is a class act. Arrived at the venue very polished and ready to do. We communicated a few times to make sure the best Astmosphere was captured. The photos look really good with the undertones and editing. The editing was done quickly which is a added bonu as many times other vendors have you wait and wait. My experience was good and our guest enjoyed communicating with him and bringing in front of the cameras.

What to expect

I will work my hardest to give you more in value than I take in payment.

About

Welcome, my name is Kai; I am a professional photographer, serial entrepreneur, and speaker based in Houston, Texas.

As a photographer, exploring, and capturing the intricacies of photography inspires me to be present in the moment. The key is to capture those unique moments in life and anticipate the next genuine image in split seconds.

My diverse range of photography skills has landed me in the Houston Chronicle and Culture Map Houston, to name a few. I have an insatiable appetite to explore photography in all corners of the world. I am available to travel to your corner of the world to capture your unique moments into lifetime memories.

All in all, I am a Dad to Nayeli and Eli, and husband to a super-woman and business partner, Victoria.
