Portrait Photography

Looking to capture your who you are in a portrait? Lets make this photography shoot about who you are. Whether you are looking for a simple headshot or an evniormental portrait. Lets spend sometime and make images that reflect you.

Family Photography

Time is moving fast. Let’s capture the moment in front of you. I love taking family photos, it’s a special way to look back and remember the changes and growth your family has gone through. Working to capture who your family is and bring out the real you is what I want to do.

Children Photography

Photographing Children is a fun and difficult task. I love getting on the ground and working to get those precious moments. Some of my favorite pictures are the ones that I have taken of my son.

Senior Photography

It’s a special time in your life. You’re figuring out who you are and where you are going in life. Who are you? What do you like to do? This is a moment to show off a little and tell people what you did in highschool and college and where you are going in life.

Who do we have here?

I’m Gabriel Villarreal, photographer from Cypress, Texas

My name is Gabriel and I am a photographer based in the greater Houston area. I am married to my lovely bride Courtney and we have two kids named Owen and Alexa. 

As much as I try to hide it I am a pretty typical guy. I enjoy pizza and wings. Some of my favorite things to do are watch and talk about movies, sit around and talk with friends, try new foods, and I love to read. Also I really love basketball. (Go Rockets!)

Forgetfulness seems like it’s a recurring theme in my life. Truthfully we can all be a little forgetful. I often take for granted the season and time of life I am in.  That is why I love photography, being able to freeze time, the moment and have that memory with you wherever you go. Recalling something in your mind is great but being able to see it really changes everything. Taking those moments and putting them in a photograph is what gets me excited. From telling stories to taking portraits, I want to help you (and myself) remember life.

Based in Cypress, Texas, I specialize in portrait photography that captures the essence of who you are. With a light and natural style, I aim to create stunning images that reflect your unique personality. Whether it’s a family session to cherish the love and growth of your loved ones, a senior session to showcase your achievements, or a simple headshot that captures your true self, I am dedicated to telling your story and freezing memories in time. Let me help you remember your life through beautiful and authentic portraits.

Family Photography

A family session is a special way to capture the love, growth and change your family goes through over time. Photos are a lasting way to remember your memories and special experiences. These are my favorite sessions. Capturing genuine interactions is, by far, my goal for each family! Sessions for Families, Couples, Maternity, Children, and Newborns are included as Family Sessions.

Maternity Photography

There is nothing quite like becoming a mom. Cherish the wonderful body that helps create life.

Senior Photography

A senior session showcases a young man or woman at a special moment in his or her life. Preparing for graduation is a big deal. This is a moment to capture their personalities and interests. This may also be a means to capture some images of them in their cap and gown.

Portrait Photography

Capture the essence of who you are with beautiful and authentic portrait photography. At Gabriel Villarreal Photography, we specialize in creating stunning portraits that reflect your unique personality. With a light and natural style, we aim to capture not just smiles, but also the genuine interactions that make up your everyday life.

I’m obsessed with these pictures

We really enjoyed our shoot with Gabriel! He made us laugh and helped us feel more comfortable which is always something I worry about with professional photos. But throughout the shoot he was flexible, had great ideas, and helped us get some amazing pictures (I’m obsessed with these pictures). He did great with getting photos of our 1 year old too which I know was tricky! I would absolutely recommend Gabriel to anyone looking to get professional photos taken.

very relaxed to spend time with

Just put your confidence in Gabriel and all will be good. Gabriel is an excellent photographer and also very relaxed to spend time with. The combination of these qualities is wonderful. Gabriel was particularly good at locating some rather magical backdrops/locations for the shoot, and he has a wonderful eye for capturing unusual and unexpected moments. His photos are some of our most valued possessions as a family.

Gabriel puts the whole family at ease

Gabriel puts the whole family at ease at once and cares deeply about documenting what you find most precious about your children. He really takes time to discuss what you want to get out of your session. I love the photos, and it was a fun day!

One Year: Fujifilm X100s

I had been looking at this camera for almost a year before I decided to take the leap and explore what the hipster culture of Fujifilm had to offer. For months I had heard about this camera and it was intriguing to me that I could put all of my heavy Canon gear aside and move on to something that would save my neck some pain without sacrificing image quality.

I don’t think many people can argue the importance of photography, but I want to take it one step further… who is in the photos is also significant!
