The Advantage of a Private Headshot Session

A corporate headshot session is great for companies and employees.  The company gets a uniform, professional look for all employees that looks great on the company website or  internal database.  The employee gets a professional headshot to use for social media, email signatures, or other promotional materials.  During a corporate headshot session, I will set up background and lighting equipment in a common area in the office and photograph a team or entire company.

There are advantages, however, to a private headshot session.   Instead of a corporate session with many people, the private headshot session includes only you and me!  First, there is the advantage of being the only one.  Many times in a corporate session, co-workers are mingling in the background and can be a distraction or detriment to the person getting a headshot.  Another advantage is time.  We can spend as much time as needed to get the right pose and expression.  Additional time also allows us to change wardrobe and backgrounds for several different looks.  Finally, a private session affords the advantage of personal attention.  My focus is on you and you get the very best headshot that we can make.

Headshots for Colleen

Colleen needed an updated headshot.  I regularly photograph corporate sessions at her corporate office in downtown Houston.  She knew, though, that a private headshot session would allow her time and attention that the corporate session would not allow.  So, we used the same background that I would normally use for the corporate session so she would have a headshot that matches the rest of the company.  Then we used a natural light setup and different background.  She can use these headshots on other social media or marketing materials.  I love the new look for Colleen and the options that the private session allowed.

These 5 photos will completely transform your real estate brand 👇🏼

Whether you’re a solo agent building a personal brand or a growing team trying to stand out in a crowded market—your photos matter.

Because real estate is personal. People want to see who they’re working with and feel like they can trust you.

Here are 5 must-have brand photos I recommend for every real estate professional:

📸 Professional Team or Solo Portraits
Polished but approachable. Whether it’s a team shot or a solo headshot, these are the foundation of your brand.

📸 Cohesive Headshots
A unified look builds brand recognition and creates a stronger first impression—especially across platforms.

📸 Lifestyle Images
Show yourself (or your team) in action: walking a property, chatting with clients, reviewing listings. These help clients picture the experience of working with you.

📸 Detail Shots
From signage to coffee cups and closing folders, detail shots add depth and personality to your brand story.

📸 On-Location Photos
Highlight your market and your vibe—whether it’s downtown, the suburbs, or somewhere in between.

Let’s be real—getting your photo taken can feel super awkward.
You’re standing in front of a camera, trying to look natural… and it doesn’t always come naturally. That’s where I come in.

My goal isn’t just to take a great headshot—it’s to make sure you feel great while we’re doing it.

🗣 I keep things casual and conversational so you’re not stuck in your head.
🙌🏼 I give real-time encouragement to help you feel supported and at ease.
📲 And I stream your images to an iPad so you can see exactly how things are going—and speak up if something feels off.

Because the best photos don’t happen when you’re perfectly posed.
They happen when you’re relaxed, confident, and feel like yourself.

What is your headshot or branding saying about you?

Because whether you realize it or not… your image is already telling a story.
The question is — is it the right one?

Your photo is often your first impression: on LinkedIn, your website, your business card, even your email signature. And people will make assumptions based on what they see.

✔️ Does your headshot show confidence and approachability?
✔️ Does it reflect your personality, values, and professionalism?
✔️ Or is it outdated, unclear, or totally misaligned with where you're headed?

Your image should tell your story before you even speak.
Make sure it’s the one you want people to hear.

Let’s capture photos that reflect the real you — with intention, authenticity, and style.

How to feel confident in photos 👇🏻

Let’s be honest — not everyone loves being in front of the camera. But confidence in your photos isn’t about being a model… it’s about feeling like yourself.

Here are a few ways to boost your confidence before your next session:

✨ Wear something that makes you feel good.
Choose outfits that fit well, reflect your style, and make you feel like the best version of you.

✨ Practice posture + breathing.
Good posture instantly improves how you carry yourself — and deep breaths help you relax and release tension.

✨ Shift your mindset.
Instead of focusing on how you look, focus on what the photo represents — your personality, your story, your growth.

✨ Work with a photographer who gets it.
That’s where I come in. I’ll guide you through every step of the process — from what to wear to how to pose — so you feel confident, comfortable, and genuinely you in every shot.

📸 Let’s create photos you actually love. Contact me to chat or book your session.
