Meet the Team

Hey, there!

We believe that the best photographs capture the memories and tell the stories that matter.  So, we thought you might want to hear a little bit of our story.

We are Vaughn Wood Photography: Chris Vaughn and Charles Wood.  We are work-colleagues who became friends and then found out that we were both professional photograpers on the side. We joined our businesses and created Vaughn Wood Photography.

Collectively, we have over 20 years. We specialize in engagements, weddings, seniors, and families.

Our goals for our clients are simple:

First: provide an absolutely incredible client experience from start to finish.

Second, provide our clients with creative photography that matches the vision they have for their photography needs. 

  • My passion for photography began when I was just a kid. I captured most of our family memories on old-school film back when you had to send your rolls of film off and wait for the photos to get developed.

    My favorite memories are shooting photographs of places like Niagara Falls, Costa Rica and Roatan Island, Honduras.

    I created my own coffee table photography book that I gifted to family and friends.

    I have won 2nd, 3rd and honorable mention ribbons at the State Fair of Texas Photography Contest prior to becoming a professional photographer.

    I'm a long time Canon user and I currently shoot with my Canon 80D and my R5. I prefer to use natural light whenever possible, but I have access to portable lighting when needed.

  • Fun facts about

    I have always been a creative type.

    I used to draw a lot as a kid. I actually started in college as an Architecture major.

    Photography has always been a mysterious and beautiful art that I admired. As a professional photographer I love learning the craft and honing my skills. It’s the best career ever.

    When I’m not working, I love traveling So far, my travels have included: Mexico, Belize, Grenada, St. Lucia, Antigua, St. Martin, Cayman Islands, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Canada, Belgium, Netherlands, Scotland, Ireland, Greece, Dubai, Panama, Columbia, Curacao, Bon Aire, Aruba, and Honduras.
