Bellaire & southwest Houston

Your shop, beautifully seen.

Photography and social media for the bakeries, barbers, salons, restaurants, auto shops, and clinics your neighbors already love. We make the photos. We help run the feed. You stay focused on the work.

What we do

Photos for your shop, and a plan for posting them.

Storefront Studio HTX is a photography and social media practice built for small local businesses. You do not need a big brand team — just clear pictures and a steady presence.

Photography

On-location shoots of your space, your people, and the work you do — food, storefronts, hands at work, and the details customers remember.

Social media management

A simple, consistent presence on Instagram and Facebook: a posting rhythm, a look that matches your shop, and someone keeping the feed alive.

Content and captions

Captions, hashtags, and a monthly content calendar written in your voice — so each post sounds like you, not like an ad agency.

Reels from photos

Short, scroll-stopping clips made from your stills — so your shop can show up in video without a full production day.

Real estate photography

Bright, clean listing photos for local agents and homeowners: interiors, exteriors, and the details that get buyers to book a showing. Booked per listing. Ask about pricing.

Packages

Start small, or hand us the feed.

These are starting points, not a menu set in stone. We can shape a package around what your shop actually needs.

Selected work

What the portfolio looks like today.

Blake’s existing work is sports and action photography. Local business shoots are next — those frames will land here as soon as the first sessions are done. No stand-in client work, no mock logos.

About

A local photographer, starting this with you.

I’m Blake Stomel, a photographer in the Bellaire and southwest Houston area. I started Storefront Studio HTX to help the shops I see every day show up online with photos that actually look like them.

Most of my work so far has been sports and action photography — light, movement, and people in the middle of something. I’m turning that same eye toward storefronts, counters, and the communities around them. You get someone local who shows up, learns what makes your shop special, and treats your page like it matters.

If you run a shop nearby and want a partner for photos and social, I’d like to hear from you.
