Best Environmental Portraits

Headshots can be all manner of things depending on your particular brand and usage needs.  If your brand is professional and formal, your headshot should be too!  If your brand is more relaxed and casual, so should your headshot be.  When planning for the headshot session, it’s best to discuss things like branding and style.  We will also discuss how you’ll be using the headshots.  The end usage may determine some factors of how I photograph you.  If you are a realtor and need a long banner image for your website, we will be sure to include a horizontal image that can be stretched for that purpose.  If you are an executive in a high profile firm in downtown Houston, we may photograph you on a clean white background so that your headshot can translated into that scene.

Headshots for Grovas and Payne

Attorneys Grovas and Payne needed professional headshots for their new business venture.  After hair and makeup for both women, we met at their shared office space.  I suggested that we capture some standard headshots and then we talked about environmental portraits as well.  The shared office space had a modern waiting area with lots of texture and light.  Perfect!  We photographed both women for a headshot in this environmental scene and then one shot of them together.  I love the warmth and lightness of these images!  To me, they are friendly and approachable but still professional.  Just the image that you want to portray when starting a new business.  Environmental portraits are a great alternative to the standard studio look.  I like to capture both so that my clients have options for all of their marketing needs.

Let me walk you through a corporate event headshot session 👇🏻

I set up a professional headshot station right at your event—guests funnel in and out in minutes, and here's the magic:

✨ Quick, guided posing (I'll tell you exactly what to do—no awkward guessing) 
✨ Instant proof gallery so you can choose your favorite on the spot 
✨ Polished, professional edits delivered fast 
✨ Cohesive headshots for the whole team (perfect for company websites, LinkedIn, you name it)

The best part? You don't have to schedule separate sessions, travel anywhere, or stress about what to wear. You show up, I guide you through it, and you leave with a headshot that actually represents you well.

No stiff corporate vibes. No feeling lost in front of the camera. Just efficient, professional, and dare I say... kinda fun? 😄

Corporate event headshots = convenience + quality + personality. If your company is planning an event and wants to give your team this experience, let's talk.

Here's the truth 👇🏻

Your headshot has an expiration date. ⏰

If your current headshot is more than three years old, it's time for a refresh.

When someone looks you up before a meeting or collaboration, they're forming their first impression. If your headshot doesn't match who shows up on the Zoom call, it creates an immediate disconnect.

Your headshot should reflect who you are RIGHT NOW. Your current energy. Your current confidence. Your current professional presence. 

✨ THE 3-YEAR RULE:
Update your headshot every 2-3 years, or sooner if you've had a significant change in appearance, role, or brand positioning.

💡 PRO TIP:
If you're hesitant because you don't love being photographed, that's exactly why the right photographer matters. Your session should feel empowering, not vulnerable.

You are worthy of being seen exactly as you are right now. Let's create headshots that feel authentic and work hard for your business.

Here's the truth—these three mistakes are quietly killing your credibility:

1️⃣ Inconsistent visuals across platforms

LinkedIn headshot ≠ Instagram profile ≠ Website photo

This creates confusion and distrust. Your audience needs to recognize YOU instantly, everywhere.

2️⃣ Outdated or low-quality photos

That 2019 selfie or grainy event photo? Not helping.

Professional imagery signals you take your business seriously—so clients can trust you with theirs.

3️⃣ Hiding behind logos or stock photos

People connect with PEOPLE, not faceless brands.

If they can't see the human behind the business, they're scrolling past.

✨ The good news? All of this is fixable.

Investing in professional branding photography isn't just about pretty pictures—it's about building trust and credibility that converts.
