Hi! I'm Madison Avery Somerville, founder and lead photographer at MAS
It all started in 2011 when my dad gave me his used Canon 5D while I was studying at the University of Texas.
In that moment, everything changed. I saw how my camera could be used to connect with others and share their stories. I then proceeded to take a deep dive into Austin's underground music scene, armed only with my camera and flash, to see how I could put this theory to the test.
Those nights capturing performers and attendees at iconic venues like Red 7, Emo's, and Mohawk taught me something invaluable: how to help people feel comfortable being seen.
Then COVID changed everything, and that unexpected break gave me clarity on what to create next. Now, I own Madison Avery Studio, where we help executives and entrepreneurs show up confidently in an increasingly digital world.
I often draw on those lessons from music venues – making people comfortable, capturing authentic moments, and telling visual stories that matter. Because here's the truth: we’re creating more than mere photographs. Together, we’ll make images that help you show up authentically in a digital world. And in business, that makes all the difference.
