I'm Bill Ledbetter and I'm a wedding and family photographer living in Leander, Texas. In 2007 I left my 26-year career in the design engineering and semiconductor industry to pursue photography as a more creative expression of my passions. I have done many things over the years, but I have been photographing since the early 1980's when I got my first 35mm SLR camera.I have always enjoyed the preservation of moments in time, and now with digital imagery we can capture, manipulate and output outstanding creations of beauty with such variety and creativity.
Services
Crafted portraits of people making things, with an emphasis on the act of creation and the context of the making. I work with the maker to determine what we might use and how we might connect the scene together with the person to craft a unique and individual portrait of a moment in time. I am adding new portraits as I finish them, with a goal to have one a month.
A business portrait says a lot about you. We work together to create something that you can use where you need it; your web page, your business card, business marketing flyers or on your wall. I can make a single portrait in your office or my studio or we can arrange for a whole office to get new portraits all at once. Call today at 512-528-9594, or email me at wblj@imageclectic.com to set up a headshot session.
Weddings are wonderful times filled with emotion and blessing and I love to be a part of the special day. I make creative, fun and candid portraits of you and your family and friends as well as important family portraits for the life of the family. I can be as unobtrusive or as immersive as you wish to make are we capture just what you want to keep for the rest of your life.
We photograph graduates with their diploma in a formal portrait setting as well as on the stage as they receive their diploma and awards. Managing the day of the ceremony, with all the different activities and people involved, can be difficult. Let us show you how we can help. Call 512-528-9594 to discuss your school needs.

Overall Bill and his wife make a great team. They conduct themselves professionally. I've used them twice. The first experience was ok, though kinda costly because we ordered so many prints (first year family pictures, etc.). The second time around however, wow, their prices increased noticeably. So much so that I could only afford one picture and he didn't even include the digital image of the print that I bought.
He stated that he didn't want customers to make their own prints, that he wanted his percentage of all prints. I didn't recall that from the first time, but that might have been the case even then. I think he would have included a low-res copy of the digital image that we purchased, but we weren't interested in that. Anyway, they're alright people.
If you're looking for a high quality print photographer and can afford their pricing, then I'd recommend them. If you're just looking for family pictures like we were and don't want to break the bank, I'd (unfortunately) have to recommend that you look elsewhere. They're not family photographers in my opinion, but rather a high-end operation. Good luck whichever you choose!

We used Imageclectic to take my son's senior photos and some group photos with his friends. Bill did a wonderful job in advising us on clothing coordination for the group shot which turned out amazing. He listened to my son and heard what my son wanted for his senior photo and captured several wonderful images. Bill was patient and able to work well given that we were taking outdoor shots on a windy day. I would recommend his work for both individuals and groups.

I got in touch with Bill through a friend because I had to have a professional head shot done. I was anxious because I've never done anything like this before. Bill was great about explaining what to expect, what sort of clothes to bring to wear, and letting me change my clothes. He and his assistant guided me through, and he let me check periodically to see which angle, clothes, etc.
I preferred as we closed in on the winning shot. He was also incredibly patient and flexible with me despite not knowing me. I had to cancel and reschedule on him because of an awful haircut and he still squeezed me in. The photos turned out great, and I have two beautiful, touched up shots to use. Thanks, Bill! :
