Headshot FAQs.

A headshot is just a photo of you! It’s typically tight on just your face, which is the most expressive part of our bodies. In a digital world, a headshot is the first impression you send.

Anybody who wants to portray themselves as knowledgeable or approachable. Anybody who represents the company they run or work for. Anybody with a public-facing job. Anyone looking for a job. If you are still reading, then probably you.

An environmental portrait is one that portrays the subject in their natural habitat. Think of a basketball player photographed on the hardwood, a CEO in the boardroom, or a doctor in an exam room. Environmental portraits are fantastic for editorial purposes, websites, and many other uses. We excel at them!

An individual headshot session is $190 plus $90 for each high-resolution, retouched photo you decide to purchase. We offer other services such as coming to your location and group rates. For more information, check out our pricing page.

Headshot sessions are designed for you to get the images you pay for individually. Branding sessions come with a majority of the images photographed.

Most individual sessions include 15–45 minutes of shooting, depending on how many clothing options you want to do. After, we can provide a gallery or sit down and pick out images together. If you’d like to pick out your image at the time of your session, please plan for another half hour.

Once you’ve picked out your image(s), we’ll have them touched up and delivered within 5 business days (usually 2 or 3). We offer a 24-hour rush service for $40/image.

We use in-camera techniques such as posing and lighting to showcase your best look and alleviate things like double chins. Usually we don’t use heavy-handed Photoshop tricks to drop even more pounds unless you expressly ask us to, in which case — we sure can!

You might have experienced glare issues with other photographers. We can usually finesse our way around this problem using proper angles with our lights, so it’s typically not a problem with us. However, on a rare occasion with extremely reflective lenses, we might have to pull off retouching miracles and charge an additional $25 retouching expense.

We’ve had people wear a shirt and tie on top and board shorts and flip flops down below. Wear whatever you think is appropriate for the audience you want to communicate with. Typically people in finance dress business formal; creative types are generally more relaxed and expressive. Bold colors or patterns may distract. Textures are always nice. For a typical headshot, you only need to be concerned from the chest up. For an environmental portrait, be ready head to toe.

You are your own worst critic. I think you’re beautiful!
