We’re walking a little taller in our boots this afternoon. That’s because today we launch See Texas, a visual collage of the best of No. 4 St. James' photography. 

We’ve created See Texas to help you do exactly that: see all of Texas, in its variegated and wonderful and sometimes surprising forms. On a single webpage, it’s a place to browse photos of the Texans we’ve met; the landscapes we’ve passed in our travels; the products we proudly present for sale in our marketplace.

And while the subjects are all a little different in the specific, they’re all essentially the same in the abstract: snapshots of life in Texas, here and now.

They’re also all original to No. 4 St. James. Everything you see within See Texas is the visual product of our Creative Director, Caleb Kerr. He’s quickly developing a reputation as being among the most talented photographers capturing Texas imagery today. Scroll around a bit, and you’ll see why.

Photography is central to our mission at No. 4 St. James. We want to share the Texas experience with as many people as possible. But not everyone can be here, and even Texans can’t be everywhere in Texas. Through photography (and a good Internet connection), we can help mitigate this distance. We can bring everyone closer to Texas, no matter where they are.

To this point, however, our photos have been a little scattered. Some of our greatest photos of Texas subjects are presented in Texas Works, a coffee table book we published about Texas enterprise last Fall. Still others live within our Facebook feed, and similarly others live on the No. 4 St. James Pinterest and Instagram pages.

But some folks don’t use Facebook, or Instagram, or Pinterest. To our dismay, some folks have never purchased a copy of Texas Works.

Which brings us back to why we created See Texas. If we have a photo we want to make sure everyone can see, we’ll publish it there.

Clicking on any image will bring you to a simple description of the subject. From there, you can also share it to your own social media outlet of choice. Our only request, of course, is that you properly credit the photo to No. 4 St. James.

The great George Strait once penned a song called “I Can’t See Texas From Here.” As the song goes, he was in Tennessee, and presumably without an Internet connection.

Well good news, George, and for everyone else who can’t see Texas: You can now see Texas from here.

For Texas, and for No. 4 St. James, we are
