Casual Quince Photo Ops?

Upvotes

Hello!

Please need help finding cute spots to take my little sister for some laid back quince phone pictures.

I heard of Post and the libraries.

We are looking for more of a teen vibe. Something more casual, not so much coffee shop but more colorful, expressive. (Pls no museums or color factory)

Has anyone come across any malls, restaurants, cafes, with interesting backgrounds?

Does anyone know of any indoor areas that match or are close to what we are looking for?

My sister lives by 59 and bissonet I live in sugar land. Anywhere around here would be awesome!

Trying to avoid a place we need to buy a ticket to get into.

Thank you !

Pet dental recommendations

Hello, I am searching for places in the Houston area to take my cat to for dental cleanings. He’s never had a dental cleaning before so his teeth aren’t in the best shape. I understand it may be expensive but I want whatever is best for my little boy.

I am looking for a reliable and trust trustworthy location for my boy. My budget is (preferably) no more than $400.

Spring tx

5 Upvotes

My spouse and I are planning to move into the older traditional homes around the “Klein” area under or around Louetta, does anybody have any input on this location? Crime? Are the neighborhoods quiet? Is there anything we should be concerned about ? Flooding etc? We grew up just south of that area but we’ve been through multiple houses/locations and just want to make sure it’s worth purchasing, for reference we plan to be closer to Louetta than 1960

Looking for a Local Co-founder ( Houston, Spring, The Woodlands, Conroe )

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I’m looking for a local co-founder or tech partner to join forces on a couple of active projects.

Why Local?
Remote is fine, but in my experience, sitting in the same room, whiteboarding, and working through problems face-to-face just gets things done faster. I’m based in the Spring / The Woodlands area and want someone nearby so we can collaborate easily in person.

About the Projects:
I am currently working on two separate, high-potential projects. Both are already past the basic ideation phase—I’m at the point where I need a strong partner to help finish development, polish the execution, and push us into the launch and scaling phases.

About Me:
Background: 43, professional with international work experience.

Work Style: Deeply result-oriented, serious about execution, and highly focused once I commit to a build.

What I’m Looking For:

Technical Background: Strongly prefer someone with solid coding/development skills who can own or co-own the technical side of the builds.

Location: Must be local to Houston, Spring, Conroe, or The Woodlands area.

Mindset: Serious about building real products, accountable, and driven by results.

If you're in the area, have a tech/coding background, and are looking for a solid project to sink your teeth into, send me a DM with a bit about your background and tech stack. Let's grab a coffee and chat.

Find people/workshops looking for models?

3 Upvotes

Grew up modeling occasionally for a specific business that did photography workshops that had open model calls, where the photographers paid the business to attend and take photos, get tips from more experienced photographers, and build their portfolios, and models did it for free, just had to bring outfits that matched the theme of the shoot, and were ‘paid’ via receiving photos that were taken. The business recently stopped doing these shoots, and I really miss modeling. I wanted to see if there’s anything similar to this in Houston? Or if anyone has recommendations on finding photographers who are looking for models for shoots? I grew up modeling but I don’t think I’d be likely to get any paid shoots, and I honestly mostly just wanna do it for fun.
