Great funny and patient guy. It was a great experience. He was will guaranteed get an excellent photo of you (no matter how many shots it takes!)
Imagine visiting talented Chris all by yourself—only to discover upon leaving that there are suddenly three of you standing together. How is that even possible? Three versions of you that you had never witnessed, known, or even conceived. Forget The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. For men, you become The Handsome,…
I’ve told every colleague who will listen about Chris! He’s the man if you want to look at your headshot and know that there’s no way you could have looked better.
Not only does he offer great work, he ensures you enjoy the experience! Most analytical photographer I’ve worked with.
Fantastic experience from start to finish! Chris is incredibly talented and has a unique ability to bring out your best in front of the camera. He made the session feel effortless, and the photos turned out better than I imagined. If you’re looking for professional headshots, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.
There’s very few people in any industry who have as much passion for their career as Chris. This shows up in spades through the results from his work. I couldn’t recommend working with him enough. Thank you Chris!

Imagine visiting talented Chris all by yourself—only to discover upon leaving that there are suddenly three of you standing together. How is that even possible? Three versions of you that you had never witnessed, known, or even conceived. Forget The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly. For men, you become The Handsome, the Confident, and the Cool. For women, you become The Gorgeous, the Relaxed, and the Chic. Chris you are the Maestro,,,
So good to see you and your sweet mother, my friend. It was such a pleasure to work with you.

Dude, you are the best. It was so much fun working with you, and I’m glad to know you.
Amazing, amazing, amazing! Great service, attention to detail, and professionalism. I was extremely impressed with Chris and the entire experience. My company was doing our annual photoshoot, and I drove from San Antonio to Houston for the session. I’ve done many professional photoshoots before, and you can immediately tell that Chris has a great deal of experience. From the very beginning, he had excellent recommendations, knew exactly how to keep things moving, and didn’t waste any time. What really stood out to me was that while Chris was taking the photos, he was also constantly consulting, guiding, and giving me recommendations.. He kept the entire session fun, exciting, and comfortable. It was a great experience from start to finish. I highly recommend Chris Gillett Photography and will absolutely keep coming back for all future photoshoots. Even with a 3.5-hour drive, it was absolutely worth it!
Gracias, amigo. I don’t know how I keep getting great guys like you in here, but I’m grateful. It was a pleasure working with you.

You can't get any better than Chris Gillett. He was recommended to me as one of the best of the best because he is. This guy REALLY knows his stuff.
Photographing the man the State of Texas couldn't kill was a career highlight and another great friend made. Thank you, KC
Chris managed to make taking headshots not awkward at all, which honestly deserves more credit than 5 stars.
