We’ve all seen it. We walk into a studio or a wedding show and we see the most beautiful bridal portrait in a setting you have never seen in a pose you never thought to use. The bride looks so wistful and full of hope. So beautiful and elegant. You stare at the photo just wondering what they are thinking. That is a great photo. It is what you want to achieve with your own photography. You want people to stand in awe of your work, wondering, day dreaming, envious. So how can you create that one of a kind photo in your own work?
Well to be honest, you either have it or you don’t. Simple as that. Creativity cannot be taught but it can be molded, honed, skillfully polished to help you create wondrous beauty. Many of us are naturally gifted in that we can see an image in something that no one else can and thus make it a masterpiece. Others take time to develop that skill.

My name is Robert Hillis and I operate Memories of Your Lifetime Photography. I specialize in wedding and portrait photography in San Antonio, TX. I am an artist at heart and I love to “Paint with my Lens”! I’ve been shooting professionally for about 5 years but I’ve been doing it for fun forever! I truly love what I do and I think that shows through in my photos.
I like to tell my clients that because a wedding is truly a once in a lifetime event, what I offer them will stand the tests of time. Of all of the things that you buy for your wedding, what I offer will outlast them all. The food gets eaten, the cake goes away, the tuxedo is returned and the limo is a distant memory. The dress may stay in the closet out of view for years to come but my images, my photos, will outlast you, your kids, their kids and even their kids kids. I’m not just taking photos, I’m preserving your family history. I am capturing the Memories Of Your Lifetime!
