About Jason Kittelberger & His Approach to Chromatic Portraiture

About Jason Kittelberger

Jason Kittelberger is a portrait photographer based in Katy, Texas, serving clients throughout Houston and the surrounding region. His work explores psychological intimacy, precision of form, and a cinematic use of color. Each image balances realism and abstraction, creating eloquent portraits that feel both composed and unguarded.

He calls his approach Chromatic Portraiture—a process grounded in collaboration and restraint, where color functions as an emotional language as much as a visual one. For Jason, portrait photography should reveal more than likeness; it should expose a state of being. Subtlety and ambiguity matter as much as expression, and often, and often, what’s left unspoken says the most.

He offers commissioned portraits for individuals, creative professionals, and editorial clients seeking imagery that transcends convention. Each session is highly individualized, designed to express the subject’s distinct presence through cinematic tone, fine-art precision, and deliberate use of shadow and color.

Outside the studio, Jason is a firm believer that few things rival the joy of a black Lab wagging its tail. He has an incurable weakness for French fries, a daily dependency on Coke Zero, and an unwavering conviction that Season 2, Episode 3 of Succession is television’s high-water mark.
