Hello, I’m Cat Herndon

Hi Everyone! I am Cat Herndon one of the owners of Whimsy Portrait Co. I’ve been in business since 2011…TEN YEARS! Providing outdoor and studio photography in Corpus Christi, Texas. I absolutely love my job. Over the years I have trained with some of the best photographers in the country including Keri Meyers Photography, Heidi Hope Photography, and lots of others though workshops, mentorships and retreats. I have made it my goal to never stop learning. Did I mention I am also a full-time college student (at 36 years old)? Yes, I keep busy!

I have two kids who are 10 years old and 12.5 years old. They keep me busy as well. My daughter is a competitive cheerleader. So, we’re always traveling to competitions. She loves it! My son calls himself a gamer! He loves Minecraft, Roblox and creating gaming videos for YouTube.

COVID really put a kink in our 2020 year. The kids have been home for a majority of it. My daughter still is schooling at home and my son started back in September 2020. We had COVID in November last year and that was a crazy experience. Completely losing my sense of smell and taste was really strange.

When I am not taking working or going to school, we like to go camping, fishing and head to the beach!
