ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER
Hello, I'm Payton Vogel!
I’m 24 years old, originally from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, but moved to Houston back in 2011. My passion for photography ignited when I was about 8 years old. I'd gravitated towards any camera in sight, capturing moments big and small.
As my family embarked on journeys and road trips, I became the designated photographer. The camera was always within reach, thanks to my parents who were keen on documenting our lives. At 15, I received my very own camera, marking the beginning of my dedicated pursuit of photography. I immersed myself in the craft, attending photography summer camps, capturing moments at my brother's sports events, and offering my services to friends and family.
My senior year I was the designated yearbook photographer, a new role that was established for my expertise. It meant being present at every significant event, from football games sidelines to front-row seats at concerts and recitals. From there I furthered my love for photography, seeing friends and fellow classmates ecstatic for their photos made me feel happy.
I then attended University of Houston and graduated in 2022 we a degree in Marketing, and pursuing photography on the side and have continued to keep photography apart of my career in any way I can.
Photography will always have a part of my heart and can't wait to see what my future holds.
