Seventeen years ago, Debbie Porter, mother of three, got into photography
by taking her children's pictures for an acting agency. Her daughter
was involved in modeling and commercials, while Debbie kept getting
assignments from her children's agent to photograph other talent.
Within two years she was working for commercial clients in Texas and
locations across the states. It wasn't long before she was working
with some of the best talent in the industry. Although she had a serious
interest in photography in high school, she has had no other formal
training in photography. Ms. Porter went to college to study commercial
art and went on to get an Associates Art Degree. A degree that definitely
contributes to successfully creating images that sell. She is best
described as an unconventional photographer, with a versatile style.
