Natural Light Headshots

Headshots, like people, come in all shades, colors, tones.  At Tara Flannery Photography, we like to offer a variety of options for headshots.  The classic studio headshot is a great choice for corporations that need headshots to be professional and uniform across the company.  This session includes a studio background and lighting.  It can take place in my studio or in your office.  Another option is outdoor or environmental headshots.  This is a great option for something a little different.  We can shoot this headshot outdoors or even in your office using the office as background.  Another great option is the natural light headshot.  This headshot takes place in my studio.  Utilizing the soft natural light from adjacent windows, we create beautiful natural-looking headshots.  These can be bright and airy or darker, depending on the look that you prefer.

Headshots for Steve

Steve was well-prepared for his headshot session in the studio for a natural light headshot.  After reading my headshot welcome magazine, he selected a background that he liked.  From his selection, I knew exactly what he wanted.  I absolutely love the resulting images.

Steve owns a psychology practice in The Woodlands called Woodlands Family Institute.  With a long list of friendly psychologists, Woodlands Family Institute is equipped to serve the community.  I have now photographed 4 of the psychologists in the office.  Each one a little different with different needs and personalities.  That’s what I love about headshots – showing the true person.

“We offer counseling and therapy for couples, families, and individuals as well as specialized therapy services for addictions, problems with mood, and family conflict resolution. Our approach is empathetic and practical, focusing on listening, understanding, and problem solving. Our goal is to help families and individuals work through their struggles and become whole again. We do this by teaching intimacy skills, effective communication, practical parenting, and the power of forgiveness.”

I put together a Guide to Photography Gear for those of you who need some help deciding what is actually worth investing in (and what's not). The link is in my bio!

Lighting is one of those things that feels complicated when you’re starting out… but it doesn’t have to be.

At the end of the day—light is light.

You don’t need the most expensive setup to get good results. What matters more is having something reliable that you understand how to use.

Especially if you’re shooting outside… the last thing you want is a $2,000 light going down in the wind.

Start simple.
Focus on gear you can trust.
And build from there.

Curious—what lighting setup are you using right now?
My Photographer Gear Guide is linked in my bio if you’re trying to figure out what’s actually worth investing in when you’re first starting out.

Because the truth is—you don’t need everything right away.

When you’re new, it’s easy to feel like you need all the gear… but really, it comes down to a few key pieces.

A solid camera body and a really good lens will take you further than a full bag of equipment you don’t know how to use yet.

If you’re deciding where to spend your money, start there.

A 24–70mm or 70–200mm lens will cover more than you think—and give you the flexibility to shoot a wide range of sessions without overcomplicating things.

Curious—what was the first piece of gear you invested in?
‼️ No clients (or videographers) were harmed in the making of this video 🤣

(For the record—this is very much a joke.)

But if you are a photographer, you know the real challenge isn’t getting someone in front of the camera… it’s knowing how to guide them once they’re there.

Small adjustments = big difference in how confident and natural someone looks.

And having a go-to posing flow makes everything feel easier—for you and your client. (so you don't resort to violence 😉)

➡️ I put together a Headshot Posing Flow Cheat Sheet to help with exactly that—link in bio.
A quick look at the people and brands I had the chance to photograph this month 👇🏻

Grateful for every person and team that trusted me to capture this season of their business.

Each session is different, but the goal is always the same—to create images that actually represent you well and support where you’re going next.

If you’ve been thinking about updating your headshot or branding photos, now is a great time to get it scheduled before things get busy later in the year.
