Modern Headshots

For a lighter, more contemporary feel to your headshot, consider an outdoor headshot session.  The headshot session no longer needs to be confined to the office or a studio setting.  Many professionals are having headshot sessions outdoors or with an environmental feel.  Even though the setting is a little more relaxed, our wardrobe, posing, and lighting principles remain.  Wardrobe should be professional and match your role and industry.  We also consider posing.  This, too, should be professional.  Finally, a certified professional photographer will ensure that the lighting is appropriate for the setting and subject.  When discussing your next headshot session with your photographer, talk about the options for an outdoor session…it’s a lot of fun too!

Headshots for Hilary

Hilary is an emergency nurse practitioner.  She wanted an outdoor headshot session and I was thrilled!  We met for our session and she had several options for wardrobe.  First, we started with a vibrant pink blouse that looked great among the green trees.  Then we moved to the blue blazer and we absolutely loved it with the hints of blue in the two different backgrounds.  Finally, we ended with a plain black button down against the marble wall and we also got a few with her scrub top in this same location.  Hilary had a hard time choosing and narrowing the selections down to her favorites but I absolutely love the ones that she chose!

It’s funny… people assume I’m just showing up, taking photos, and moving on.

But in reality, I’m rooting for my clients long after the session is over.

Hoping they feel more confident.
Hoping they land the opportunity.
Hoping their photos help them show up the way they’ve been wanting to.

Because it’s never just about the pictures.

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.
