A LITTLE ABOUT ME
A little about me - my name is Adolfo Chavez III, but everyone calls me Killy (Kee-Lee). It's a baby name - given to me by my dad as an infant. It stuck. My family has called me this since I was little and I adopted it full time once I got old enough to realize that people had a difficult time with my given name. Killy was easier to speak and spell.
My first camera was a Canon AE-1P back in 1990 and I was hooked, blowing through roll after roll of film. I would eventually blow through about 4 of those bodies through my schooling and college journalism career at Texas State University. From schooling I went straight into photo printing, working at various labs in Texas. Eventually, through ups and downs in life and photography, I would land at MD Anderson Cancer Center where my 20+ year career would eventually blossom into what it is now: Associate Director of Photography. I've spent the last 21 years managing people & situations, strategizing & planning, collaborating & building relationships, solving complex short term & long term issues, and most importantly building the visual brand that tells the story of the institution and it's mission to end cancer.
That is the experience and drive that is behind Killy Photography. Not only a varied and solid portfolio, but a proven track record of collaboration and problem solving. So if you need pictures call ... anyone, but when you have a project and you need someone you can rely on, someone who can make things happen, get in touch with KILLY. I can help.
