Hi, I’m Zed Hawthorne: photographer, problem-solver, and the face behind A to Zed Photography. I help small and growing businesses stand out with bold, authentic brand imagery that captures more than just the product - it captures what makes your brand unforgettable. I’m based near Houston, TX, but I work with clients wherever they are, whether that means shooting on location or collaborating remotely.

The right photo doesn’t just showcase your brand - it feels like your brand. It captures that spark your audience connects with, sometimes before they even know why. My job is to find that spark and make it shine - through lighting, mood, and the little details that make you unforgettable.

What Sets Me Apart

• Tailored to You: No cookie-cutter shoots here. I work closely with you to understand your brand, your vibe, and your goals - then build a custom shoot plan that brings it all together with clarity and impact.

• Photography That Pops: I combine pro-level gear with deep lighting know-how and a sharp creative eye to deliver high-quality images that grab attention and elevate your brand’s presence.

• Creative Collaboration: From concept to final shot, I bring ideas to the table that help your brand stand out. Whether it’s inventive styling or bold compositions, I craft visuals that feel fresh, intentional, and unmistakably you.

• Stress-Free Experience: I keep things professional, punctual, and painless - so you can focus on what you do best, start to finish.

Partnering with business owners, entrepreneurs, and brand builders is just as rewarding to me as the photography itself. I love helping people grow their visibility and reach through bold, strategic imagery that elevates their brand. When your business thrives, that’s a win for everyone.
