Welcome to Kevin Gourley Photography  -  Austin, Texas

Celebrating the beauty of this world through photography.

I offer a wide variety of services ranging from high quality portraiture, to professional headshots and talent portfolios, as well as event photography, commercial and product photography, real estate / architectural photography, and special assignments.  

I strive for excellence in all of my work.  The best way to judge any photographer is to look at examples of their work.  I have provided many examples of my photography throughout my website.  Please check out my example photos below as well as the many galleries I have posted on this website.  Note both the consistency in quality, creativity, and diversity in my photography!  I want to be your photographer!

         
 

About Kevin Gourley

Photography is not just my interest, it is truly my passion.  I guess you might say "It's not what I DO, it is who I AM."  For the past 30 years, I have loved photographing people, nature, architecture, scenics, and still-life, capturing the beauty and wonder of the world around us.  I have also been involved with and/or started numerous photographers' groups and clubs over the years, and have taught courses in photography ranging from basic to advanced photography, portraiture. lighting, color and B&W darkroom work, composition, low light photography, and studio photography.

My "Style"

I'm not really limited to one particular "style" of photography, but I do tend to create images with rich color, dramatic lighting, and simple composition.  

I love the challenge of encountering a subject and "seeing" the beauty in what I encounter, and then capturing that in a photograph.   While photographs can be "created", constructed and contrived from a pre-planned envisioned image, I prefer to rely on my ability to "see" the image as I encounter it.   That's not the only way I work, but it is my preferred method of working. 

'"It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see."
  - Henry David Thoreau

My practice of watching for "the" photograph in any scene, has given me a greater awareness and appreciation of the world around me, even beyond my photographic endeavors.  Even if I don't have a camera with me, I tend to see the world through photographic eyes.
