Our Story

1133 Studios started in 2018 as an idea for a motorcycle photography blog. The name comes from the engine of the Indian Scout (1133 CC’s), a motorcycle that played a significant role in our founder's interest in photography.

The blog evolved from a photography project into a full fledged business. In 2019, our founder left his position as a financial auditor at a CPA firm to pursue photography full-time, initially working out of a spare bedroom in his apartment. By 2021, 1133 Studios had opened its first studio location in Houston.

Over the years, we've narrowed our focus to commercial and corporate photography, specializing in professional headshots, corporate events, and branding photography. We work with businesses, organizations, and individuals who need consistent, high-quality imagery for their marketing, communications, and professional identities.

Today, 1133 Studios is more than a single photographer. Our team brings together different backgrounds, experiences, and creative perspectives, while maintaining a consistent approach to the work we produce.

We're proud of how the studio started, the relationships we've built, and the direction we're headed.
