✨📸 Practice what you preach, right?
I always tell my clients how important it is to keep their headshots fresh and aligned with their brand - and I mean it. Over the years, I’ve updated my own headshots as my business has grown & changed (swipe 👉🏼 to see the growth).
Because here`s the truth: your brand isn’t static. Your vision shifts, your confidence builds, and your purposes evolves - and your imagery should evolve with it.
Your headshot should feel like you - not who you were five years ago, not who you thought you had to be, but who you are RIGHT NOW. That’s the person people want to connect with.
So if it’s been a few years (or more, I don’t judge 😉), maybe it’s time for a refresh. Let’s make sure your headshot reflects the amazing, current version of YOU.

Here’s what I would say…
If you`re wondering whether you should reschedule your headshot session, here`s the breakdown:
✨ DO reschedule if:
You`re feeling under the weather 🤧 (no one wants to spread germs or push through when you`re not at your best)
You have a facial rash, skin peeling, or excessive puffiness that affects your overall comfort and confidence
🚫 DON’T stress or reschedule for:
A shaving nick
A breakout or blemish
Puffy eyes or dark circles
Forehead lines or wrinkles
Cold sores or minor irritation
🧼 I’ve got you covered when it comes to light retouching—my editing style enhances without overdoing it. You’ll still look like YOU, just the best version.
📸 Now, let’s talk prep:
✔️ Men: Schedule a haircut a few days before your session (not the day-of!)
✔️ Ladies: Make sure your hair is cut, colored, and styled—I’ve got hair + makeup covered for Executive Headshots if you want to take the stress off!
✔️ Wardrobe: Try on your outfit ahead of time—fit and comfort are key
✔️ Night before: Get a good night’s sleep & hydrate for that natural glow
✨ The best part? We go over ALL of this during your consultation. I’ll guide you every step of the way so you feel fully prepared and confident going into your session.

Imagine this: It’s senior year. You’re flipping through the yearbook, and when you get to your page… there’s no senior pic. Just your name. In plain text. Tragic. 😭
Or worse—your mom has a big empty spot on her wall where your iconic senior portrait should be. Do you really want your little siblings to have better pics than you? Be so for real. 👀
Good news? It’s not too late! Spring is the perfect time for senior portraits, and I’ve got spots open just for you. Let’s make sure you graduate with photos you actually love.

Your expertise is top-tier—shouldn’t your branding be, too?
When Dr. Carpin reached out, she knew her work spoke for itself. But before patients ever meet her, they’re looking her up online - so her branding needed to reflect the same elvel of professionalism and care she provides every day.
So, we created branding images that match the level of expertise and care she provides every day. ✨
We started right in her office, with hair and makeup to ensure she looked and felt her best. Then, we captured a mix of environmental and studio shots—giving her a variety of images for her website, social media, and marketing. And because strong branding goes beyond just photos, our videographer stepped in to film content for her practice all in the same day.
Now, Dr. Carpin has a cohesive, polished brand that:
✅ Builds trust with potential patients before they ever step through the door
✅ Showcases her expertise in a way that feels both professional and approachable
✅ Keeps her marketing fresh and relevant across all platforms
Your online presence matters. It sets you apart, builds credibility, and helps you connect with the right audience. If it’s time for a branding refresh, let’s create images that truly reflect who you are.
