What to Expect in a Headshot Session

Whether the headshot session is in your office or at my home studio, there are a few things that you can expect from a headshot session.  First, we will talk about your wardrobe choices and what backgrounds will be best for each outfit.  When you are ready to start shooting, I will take a few test shots to ensure that my lighting is appropriate for your height, skin tone, etc.  Minor adjustments to one or more lights can make a headshot go from okay to fantastic!  Once the lighting is where it needs to be, we will start the work of making your headshot.  I will tell you how to pose from your feet to your head so you don’t have to worry about what to do during your headshot.  Again, a slight movement in one direction or a tilt of the head can make a huge difference in your headshot.  Finally, I will show you some of the images that we have gotten so far during the session.  If you’d like to make any changes to hair, glasses, or clothing, this is the time to make the change.  Depending on the type of headshot session, we will end the session a final image selection or a number of great proof options.

Corporate Headshots for Racca Solutions Group

I have provided corporate headshots on several occasions for Racca Solutions Group.  New employees come on board and need a headshot.  Current employees want a new headshot.  RSG has a new office and I was able to set up my lighting and background in an empty office space.  Everyone was ready to go and we were super efficient with our headshots for this session.  From the proofing gallery, each employee chose the perfect headshot to be edited and retouched.  Now the company has new beautiful headshots for their website and marketing materials.

My photography style is leaving my client with a photo they love to show off 🤍

Every session is designed to create images that feel elevated and effortless, capturing who you are now and where your brand is going next. 

Photos that make a statement without trying too hard — and still feel relevant years from now.

If your brand calls for imagery that feels confident, cohesive, and unmistakably you, you’re in the right place.

✨ Ready to create something elevated? 

Shoot me a DM and we'll get starting planning!

This is why you should NOT ask ChatGPT to turn your Facebook photo into a professional headshot 👇🏻

AI can do a lot of things… but representing the real you isn’t one of them.

In the AI version of my headshot:
❌ My hair was changed
❌ My makeup disappeared
❌ My face shape was different
❌ The lighting + posing weren’t tailored to me at all

On screen, it looked “close enough”…
But in person? It looked nothing like me.

And that’s the problem.

The best part of this job?👇🏼

 Seeing clients recognize themselves in their photos — confident, professional, and proud — never gets old. 

Your kind words, trust, and support mean more than you know, and they’re the reason I love what I do every single day.

Every session is about more than just photos. It’s about helping you feel seen, confident, and represented in a way that truly feels like you.

Thank you to every client who’s trusted me with their story — and shared such thoughtful reviews along the way.

✨ Ready to create images you’ll love just as much?

Some poses might feel a little silly in the moment and that’s okay. 📸👇🏼

One of the biggest secrets to great photos is being willing to experiment.

What feels “unnatural” in real life often looks confident, effortless, and polished on camera. That’s why posing is such a big part of what I do during every session.

I’ll guide you through adjustments, test different angles, and fine-tune details so we find what truly works for you. 

You don’t need to overthink it or worry about how you look — trusting the process is where the magic happens.

You show up. I’ll handle the posing.

I hear this all the time — and the good news is, you don’t need to👇🏻

Guiding you through posing, angles, and expressions is literally my job.

During every session, I give clear, simple direction so you never feel awkward or unsure of what to do next.

My goal is to help you feel comfortable, relaxed, and confident — because that’s when you look your best. 

You’re never expected to “perform” or figure it out on your own. I’ll position you in ways that highlight your best features and feel natural to you.

All you need to do is show up. I’ll take care of the rest.
