Great Headshots

Your next headshot session can be wildly successful! Here are a few tips:

Plan the background and feel for the headshots with your photographer ahead of time. Do you want a standard studio shot, or an environmental shot, or outdoors?
Plan wardrobe for yourself or the entire staff. People don’t need to match but having a consistent style makes the headshots more uniform. Or maybe you’d prefer a more creative look where everyone wears something different, that’s fine too. Just decide what on style (casual, formal, or somewhere in between) and communicate that to the team. If you are an individual, plan for a formal option and at least one casual option too. Make sure that the wardrobe is clean and pressed. Finally, wardrobe should fit properly and not be too big or too snug.
Take a deep breath and relax! I like to chat a bit with my headshot clients if time allows so that I can get to know you and so that you have a few minutes to relax. The genuine smiles and expressions come when you allow yourself to relax and just be in the moment.

Corporate and Individual Headshot Examples

Here are some great headshot examples. As you can see, the location of the headshots along with wardrobe and genuine smiles make a world of difference! Take time to plan these details and you’ll be on your way to some great headshots!

Senior sessions with moms and sons are always… an experience 😂

A little back-and-forth, a few eye rolls, and somehow we still end up with photos everyone loves.

Honestly, those in-between moments are usually the best part.

📩 DM me if you’ve been putting off senior photos—there’s still time.

If your brand feels a little “off”… it’s usually not your content 👇🏻

It’s the lack of consistency behind it.

You’re posting, updating your website, trying to stay visible—but if your visuals don’t feel aligned, it creates a disconnect.

And that’s what people pick up on.

Your photos are one of the first things people use to decide if they trust your business.
If they feel scattered, outdated, or inconsistent, it affects how your brand is perceived—no matter how good your work actually is.

That’s exactly why I invested in my own branding session!

Because if I’m asking my clients to show up professionally, I need to do the same.

And if you’re not even sure what your brand should look like yet—that’s where you start.

📥 I created a Brand Clarity Workbook to help you define your look, message, and direction before you invest in photos.

Senior photos shouldn’t feel random… they should feel like you. 👇🏻

Before every session, we talk through a few key things to make sure your photos actually reflect this moment in your life:

✅ Location — what kind of vibe fits you? (nature, city, something more edgy?)
✅ Wardrobe — casual, polished, cap & gown, college tee… we plan it out
✅ Hobbies & interests — the things you love right now that you’ll want to remember later

Because the goal isn’t just to take photos…
it’s to capture who you are right now before everything changes. 🎓

📩 If you’re planning senior photos, let’s start with a consultation and build something intentional.

Let’s talk about men’s ties in headshots 👇🏻

It’s one of the most common questions I get before a headshot:
“Should I wear the red one… or the blue one?”

The truth is, your tie isn’t about preference—it’s about how it looks on camera.

What works best:
✅ Solid colors or subtle patterns
✅ Navy, burgundy, or charcoal tones
✅ A clean, standard width
✅ A slight texture (not too shiny, not too flat)

What to avoid:
❌ Loud prints
❌ Large patterns
❌ Anything that pulls attention away from your face

And one thing most people don’t think about…
👉🏻 your tie can also reflect your brand or company colors

The goal isn’t to stand out—it’s to look polished, confident, and professional.

🌟 CLIENT SPOTLIGHT:

These images are from a recent session with Oilfield Service Professionals—always a great example of how simple, intentional choices come together.

Cap and gown season is here 🎓

If you didn’t get senior photos done earlier, this is your moment—professional cap & gown photos and college tee shots are the perfect way to wrap up senior year.

And now that decisions are made, it’s the best time to capture where they’re headed next.

📩 Spots are limited—click the link in my bio or DM me to book a last-minute session.

And for Class of 2027 parents… it’s not too early to start thinking ahead 👀
Some yearbook deadlines come faster than you expect, and these photos make the perfect addition to senior pages.

🌟 CLIENT SPOTLIGHT 👇🏻

What started as “just headshots”… turned into a full library of content.

Natalie and her husband, Rich, came to me as they were launching their new practice, Comprehensive Medical Specialists of Texas. Initially, they were looking for updated headshots and a group photo.

But as we started planning, we expanded the vision—creating not only individual headshots, but multiple group images and photos of their office space.

Now, they don’t just have one or two images…
they have a full collection they can use across their website, advertising, social media, and more.

And hearing Natalie say it was the best headshot she’s ever had? That’s always the goal 🤍

This is what a thoughtful branding session can do—give you content that actually works for your business long after the shoot is over.

📩 If you’re building or growing your business, let’s create a library of images that works for you—DM me to start planning your session.
