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.

You don’t just get a few photos…

You get a full set of images you can actually use—
for your website, your content, your launches, and everything in between.

Because as a coach, you are your brand.
And the way you show up visually matters more than most people realize.

My goal isn’t just to take good photos—
it’s to help you feel confident, natural, and aligned in how you present yourself.

📩 If you’ve been putting off branding photos, this is your sign—link in bio to start planning.
Mid-session. Camera in hand. Client in front of me…
and suddenly my camera starts throwing error codes.

I turn it off. Pull the battery. Take the card out.
Put everything back in and hope it works again.

And then it happens again.

Three memory cards failed on me during that shoot.

After that, I switched to Sony Tough cards—and haven’t had an issue since.

It’s one of those things you don’t think about… until you’re in a high-pressure moment and your gear has to perform.

📥 If you’re a photographer and want a breakdown of the gear I actually use and trust, I’ve put together a guide—link in bio.

👇🏼 But I'm curious, what cards have been working for you?
It’s never just pressing a button.

It’s reading the room.
Adjusting in real time.
Knowing how to bring out confidence—even when someone feels uncomfortable in front of the camera.

The technical side matters.
But the connection, the instinct, and the ability to see what others don’t… that’s what turns it into something more.

📩 If you’re ready for photos that feel like you, you can book through the link in my bio.
