Welcome!
I’m Courtney, the artist behind Courtney Mitchell Photography, a boutique portrait studio located in historic downtown Sherman, Texas. I specialize in high-school seniors, families, children, and professional headshots, creating portraits that feel authentic, refined, and timeless.
Photography for me has never been about chasing trends or filling phone storage. It’s about creating tangible artwork, portraits that live on your walls, rest on your coffee table, and become part of your family’s story for generations. Printed photographs are more than images; they are daily reminders of connection, confidence, and the people you love most.
I hold a Master of Photography degree and am a Certified Professional Photographer (CPP). I am an active member of Professional Photographers of America, Texas Professional Photographers Association, and Dallas Professional Photographers Association. Continuing education is a cornerstone of my work, and I regularly attend advanced workshops and conventions to refine both artistry and technique. My work has been recognized with multiple national and international awards, but the greatest honor is the trust families place in me to preserve their memories.
My studio experience is designed to be personal, guided, and full-service, from planning and wardrobe to image selection and designing custom wall art and albums. Every session begins with the end in mind so your portraits are created with purpose and intention.
If you value artwork that feels timeless rather than trendy, and photographs that will still matter decades from now, you are in the right place.
Simple. Beauty. Forever.
Courtney
