You look great—you just haven’t seen it yet. As your headshot photographer, it’s my job to position you perfectly and capture your best look. If past photos haven’t done you justice, it’s because you haven’t had the right photographer. Be yourself, and I’ll handle making you look incredible in your headshot session.
Looking great in photos is all about natural direction and avoiding forced poses. As your headshot photographer, my goal is to create a comfortable environment where you can be yourself. A great headshot isn’t just about the camera and lights—it’s about the experience. I’ll guide you, keep the conversation light, and together we’ll capture your genuine expressions, not the staged ones. I won’t ask you to “smile” or “say cheese” because that’s not the real you. My aim is to capture your true personality and natural reactions, which make for the best headshot photos.
Our headshot session times vary depending on your needs, but typically last around two hours. This allows ample time for multiple outfit changes and different looks, giving you a wide variety of headshots to choose from. After the session, we’ll review the photos together to select the best headshots that perfectly meet your requirements.
You’ll select your favorite headshot photos during your session before you leave. Our camera is tethered to a computer, allowing the images to be displayed on a large monitor for immediate viewing.
I work with an incredible headshot retoucher who will expertly remove blemishes and minor imperfections, and even soften wrinkles if desired. Our goal is to ensure you still look natural after retouching. We don’t use heavy airbrushing or filters—every image is carefully retouched by hand. We’ll discuss your specific retouching preferences during your session to achieve the best results.
You can expect to receive your retouched headshot images within 5–10 business days. Often, the turnaround is quicker, depending on our retoucher’s current workload.
