On this episode of The Life of Phys Podcast, I’m joined by Fred Agho, also known as Fujifred, a Houston, Texas–based commercial and portrait photographer whose work is rooted in connection, creativity, and storytelling.

Fred’s journey into photography began while photographing his collegiate football teammates, sparking a love for image-making that quickly grew into a lifelong passion. Over the years, he has developed a style that blends technical excellence with the ability to capture the essence of his subjects, creating portraits that feel both powerful and personal.

Today, Fred is recognized for his ability to craft compelling images that highlight authentic human connection, whether in the studio, on location, or in commercial work. His approach goes beyond simply taking a photograph, it’s about creating a space where subjects feel seen and stories come to life through the lens.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Fred’s journey from college football to professional photography

• How photographing teammates sparked his creative calling

• His philosophy on capturing authentic portraits

• Why connection is at the heart of every great image

• Insights into his work as a commercial and portrait photographer in Houston

  
  

This episode is a celebration of creativity, resilience, and the art of portrait photography, reminding us that the camera is not just a tool, but a bridge between people.
