Welcome To Slade Photography

Hello! My name is James Slade. I'm an Austin-based portrait photographer specializing in fine art portraiture. Fine art applies to many things, including family and high school senior portraits, professional headshots, boudoir, and select events.

My work is rooted in storytelling, creating images that are both intentional and effortless. Through my passion for lighting and artistic expression, I work to capture the unique character of each person I photograph. I create art for anything, from memorable family moments to breath-taking fine art portraits.

In every session, my goal is to create timeless portraits that will hold meaning and create a lasting impact for you and your loved ones to cherish for generations to come.

REVIEWS

"James is one of the best talents I’ve worked with!

I have continued to shoot with James for two reasons. He’s extremely driven and takes on my projects as if they are his. Secondly, his ability to maintain transparency and communicate from start to finish is something I’ve never came across. Throughout the entire process he never leaves you guessing about where he is regardless of if that’s on the commute to the shoot, talking about post editing, or even where his head is at in making your vision come to life.

I cannot say enough good things about James and the work he’s done. He has attributed to much of the success that I have had in growing my brand. Not only will I continue to work with him in the future on important projects, but he is also someone who has become a valued friend.”
