The MHP Experience

 

Your photography experience should be about more than showing up, smiling for the camera, and receiving a gallery of images.


From choosing the perfect location and planning outfits to helping you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera, I'm here to guide you through every step. My sessions are relaxed, natural, and focused on capturing genuine moments that feel like you.


And the experience doesn't end when the photos are taken. I also offer custom wall art, professionally designed albums, and beautiful prints to help you enjoy your favorite images beyond a digital gallery.


My goal is simple: to make the entire process easy, enjoyable, and personal while creating photographs you'll love seeing in your home for years to come.

Your Photos Deserve More Than a Screen



Your favorite photographs shouldn't spend years sitting on your phone or computer.


At Mary Hickman Photography, I offer custom wall art, professionally designed albums, and beautiful printed photographs that turn your images into something you can enjoy every day.


Whether it's a statement piece for your living room, an album documenting your senior's final year of high school, or framed portraits throughout your home, I'll help you choose pieces that fit your style, your space, and the moments you want to remember.

Hi, I'm Mary



I'm the photographer behind Mary Hickman Photography, based in North Texas. I've been photographing seniors, families, couples, and all the milestones in between since 2017.

My approach to photography is pretty simple. I want you to feel comfortable, have fun, and walk away with images that actually feel like you. I'm all about natural interactions, genuine expressions, and a little movement rather than stiff poses and forced smiles.

Over the years, I've also come to appreciate how important it is to do more with our photographs than leave them sitting on a phone or computer. I love helping clients turn their favorite images into beautiful artwork and albums they can enjoy long after their session.

Whether we're celebrating your senior year, updating family portraits, or documenting a new chapter, my goal is to make the experience relaxed, personal, and something you'll genuinely enjoy.

Mary was incredible to work with! We had never met before, but she quickly had my son at ease and enjoying the photoshoot! We are beyond pleased with all of the photos! Could not be happier!!!

Valerie - Allen TX

Holy cow! You guys, Mary is AMAZING! I regret nothing about choosing her. Best decision!



Jessica - Allen TX

Mary captured the essence of our family in the most beautiful way. We were so pleased with her pictures, that we couldn't decide and wound up purchasing the entire gallery, as well as some prints. We will definitely be using Mary's services in the future! Highly recommend

Yvonne - Plano TX

Mary did a fantastic job on our family Christmas photos... even managing to wrangle our out-of-control dog. So many good choices from the shoot and we couldn't be more pleased with the results.

Thad - McKinney TX

We had the best first time experience with Mary. The amount of quality photos she was able to get in a short amount of time before the kiddos start getting antsy was truely impressive. Highly recommend! We will definitely be using her skills in the near future.
