Portraits & Headshots
Distinctive portrait sessions that capture personality and presence — whether it's an actor's headshot or a personal-brand set for social media.
A headshot people are willing to have on the website.
Team headshots, individual portraits, actor and performer shots, and the environmental portraits that go with a profile piece — at your office, on site, or somewhere that says something about the work.
Most people dislike being photographed because most portrait sessions are uncomfortable. I keep it quick and conversational: a few minutes each, a look at the back of the camera if it helps, and a set of frames to choose from rather than one take you are stuck with.
A whole team can be done in a morning, lit consistently so the website does not look as though it was built from twelve different phones. Retouching is light — a tidy, not a different face.
What a shoot covers
- Individual headshots on a consistent background
- Environmental portraits at a desk or on site
- Team and department groups
- Informal working portraits
- A matching set sized for LinkedIn and the press
