My name is Whitney Bowman. I’m a wife and a mother first, but my life wouldn’t be complete without my camera.

I’ve been taking pictures since I was in the third grade and haven’t stopped since. Sure, when I was nine, my (sometimes) willing subjects were a couple dogs, a cat, horse and a crazy little brother, and it was all just for fun, but it was then, my passion was born.

And it’s that passion that nine years later led me to the University of North Texas pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in Photojournalism.

During my time at Mean Green, I served fried chicken to happy patrons at Babe’s Chicken Dinner House (if you don’t know about Babe’s, you should) and interned for several publications and Texas Motor Speedway, snapping shots of everything from local events to asphalt victories.

The best part though? I had the opportunity to travel to Italy. I took photos of every adventure, and came home with wall-worthy art and lifetime of memories -- that place is amazing! I think I ate Gelato every day I was there. 

I graduated from UNT in 2009 and soon after, started taking youth sports portraits for The Sports Section in Frisco, which, above all else, taught me patience is key when it comes to photographing children. When I wasn’t herding kiddos in uniform, I photographed senior photos, family portraits and a small wedding or two.

In 2010, I married my high school sweetheart, Billy. We welcomed our son, Jake, in 2013, moved to Chico, Texas in 2016 and welcomed our daughter, Katie, in 2018! Please find me on Facebook or Instagram to see all of our adventures!
