VMWare Convention – Hacker Kevin Mitnick Keynote

March 31, 2017 by Aric Leave a Comment

Some say Kevin Mitnick of Mitnick Security Consulting is the world’s most famous hacker.  I was hired by VMWare to photograph one of their recent conventions at which Mr. Mitnick was the keynote speaker.  Needless to say, I turned the wifi off on my iPhone before I entered the event. Here is a brief run down I […]

Dak Prescott and Aric Hoek

One thing I love about being a professional photographer is the access I sometimes receive and the amazing people I get to meet.

A Portrait of My Wife Using The Golden Spiral

February 8, 2017 by Aric Leave a Comment

The Golden Spiral

The desire for a very nice, formal, quiet dinner is something Toni and I have always had in common.  Because of this, we traditionally celebrate Valentine’s Day one week early. We created this portrait last night moments before we left the house to celebrate at one of our favorite restaurants, Eddie V’s.  Without question, my […]

Houston Business Headshot Photographer Solaris Studio

I feel very privileged to have created the portrait of Galveston’s Chief of Police today, Mr. David Smith. But I was also flattered that out of all the professional photographers Houston and Galveston offer, he chose my services and drove from Galveston to my studio in NW Houston. For a professional photographer, who you photograph […]

Headshot of Scenic Houston Execs.

Houston Business Headshot Photographer Solaris Studio

Do you remember a few years back all of the large obnoxious inflatable figures you would see on the tops of buildings as you drove around the Houston area?  There gone now. Do you ever notice how the side of our metro buses do not have advertising plastered all over them? Do you ever see new […]
