Based in Central Texas, with 25 years of experience, I am available throughout the region and beyond, regularly working with clients in San Antonio, Austin, Johnson City, San Marcos, Copperas Cove, Killeen, Cedar Park, Round Rock, Leander, and the surrounding Hill Country communities. I’m willing to travel anywhere your project takes me.

When I’m not behind the lens, you’ll find me hiking, camping and exploring the Hill Country landscape I call home.

Thao is an event and food photographer with 24 years of professional experience capturing moments that matter. Since picking up her first camera at 17, she has developed a keen eye for storytelling through light and composition. Her work has earned her clients across hospitality, technology, media, nonprofits, and higher education, including Whole Foods Market, Southwest Airlines, General Motors, Amazon, the Dallas Morning News, San Antonio Express-News, University of Texas, Texas State University, Zocdoc, Grubhub, and Uber Eats.

Her portfolio spans the full spectrum of documentary and commercial work: corporate events and conferences, fundraisers and galas, sports and breaking news, decadent food images, intimate portraits, and weddings. Over nearly two and a half decades, she has honed a keen eye for the details that matter. This insight comes through years of trial and error on sets, in newsrooms, and across live events. That experience is what allows her to move intuitively through a room, anticipate the shot before it happens, and capture work that resonates.
