A fabulous headshot provides an unforgettable first impression. And in a crowded business landscape, you need a headshot that’s authentic, captivating, and will stop people in their tracks.
One of the most important aspects of my portrait work is the trust my clients have in me. Trust is important so that clients know that I’ll be working with them to bring out only their best. Sometimes that means trying something the unexpected, or even silly, to create something fabulous and unique.
Finally when it comes to posing–leave your worries at home! The vast majority of us are not professional models, so of course, posing isn’t second nature. If you’re a modeling pro, awesome. But if not, trust me! I’ve got plenty of guidance, tips, tricks, and ideas to ensure you are posing like a boss throughout your session.
Posing and Wardrobe
Wait, so you’re not a professional model? No worries. You’ve come to a professional photographer, so let me put your mind at ease. I’ve shot hundreds of headshots and will use this experience to make sure you’re at ease and have plenty of guidance along the way. (Did you know I am also a yoga teacher? So yeah… I am a kind of an expert at the art of relaxing.) You’re in trustworthy hands, so just enjoy the experience.
Have questions on what to wear? Have no fear, because I’ve created a guide called 5 Pro Tips for a Fabulous Headshot that is available by clicking here. I’m also happy to provide guidance on outfit choices in advance of your session so you are dressed for success.
A word about retouching
Rest assured, retouching is a part of every headshot I deliver. Because one of the reasons you are coming to a professional is to get the highest-quality service–which includes the work I do after your session is finished! Think of our headshot sessions as baking the cake — we put all the ingrediants together — the pose, the outfit, the most flattering light. And then I’ll give you the icing on the cake with a meticulous retouch designed to enhance all your qualities so you feel great about your final image.
Teams and Organizations
If your company has a whole team that needs headshots, then let’s talk! I can develop a custom package that brings everyone in the studio, or brings my mobile studio to you! Depending on the number of individuals, we can move everyone through very efficiently and create a clean, consistent, and professional look for your company or organization. There is nothing that enhances an organization’s online professional marketing better than showing your team behind the scenes.
