Best Headshot Photographer

The best headshot photographer is one that produces the kind of headshot that you’re looking for.  Not sure what you’re looking for?  Take a look at photographers’ websites to get an idea of style.  Not all photographers specialize in headshots!  Headshot photographers need lighting equipment and expertise, posing, and other tips specific to headshots.  Look around to ensure that you find the right match for you!  I prefer to know my clients’ needs for the headshot.  What will you be using it for (social media, company website, proposals, articles, awards, etc.)?  When did you last have a headshot and how did you feel about the experience?  What is prompting you to get a headshot done now?  We work together to create something that is crafted especially for them.

What Should a Headshot Look Like?

Depending on your industry and position, your headshot may not look like your neighbor’s and that’s okay!  The accounting and financial services industries generally prefer to have more formal headshots.  Realtors like to have professional but very friendly headshots.  Physicians also need professional yet friendly headshots.  Many people now are opting for an outdoor headshot – it’s still a professional look but a little more relaxed and casual than the regular studio shot.  Everything from location to wardrobe, pose, and expression affect your final headshot.  I will work with you to identify the best look for you so that you’re confident in posting that headshot on your website, social media, and other marketing materials.

One day, this will be a memory. Don’t miss capturing it.

Senior year has a way of slipping by faster than you expect… and before you know it, they’re graduating.

These photos aren’t just for now—they’re something you’ll look back on for years to come, remembering exactly who they were in this moment.

If you’ve been putting it off, this is your reminder—time is running out and spots are limited.

Shutter speed is one of those things that feels confusing… until it clicks. 😉📸

For headshots, you don’t need anything complicated — just a solid, consistent range and an understanding of how your lighting plays into it.

If you’re a new photographer trying to figure all of this out, I’ve put together a few resources to help you get started — from gear to posing and more.

🚨 QUICK! TIME IS RUNNING OUT 👇🏻

Most people step in front of the camera thinking, “I have no idea what to do.”

That’s where I come in.

Every small adjustment you see here — posture, hands, angles — is intentional. It’s what turns a quick headshot into something confident and professional.

If you want to learn the poses I rely on most, I put together a guide breaking them down.

If you’re just getting into headshot photography, it’s easy to feel like you need everything to get started.

You don’t.

A solid light setup, a reliable camera, and a lens you can trust will take you a lot further than you think.

📸 For me, that looks like a Nikon Z7II mirrorless camera + a 70–200mm lens, paired with a simple lighting setup that keeps things consistent and professional.

It’s not about having the most gear — it’s about having the right setup and knowing how to use it.
