How to plan your realtor headshots

For realtors, the professional headshot is the first step in the marketing process.  All of your marketing materials (business cards, signs, websites, banners, etc.) require a professional headshot.  So, let’s plan your realtor headshots.

First, find a professional photographer in your area that specializes in headshots.  Yes, anyone can take a headshot and I’m sure that you have a fantastic selfie.  However, a professional photographer will use lighting, posing, and professional equipment to create a high quality image that can be used on printed marketing materials.  That selfie will not print well on your billboard or sign!  And a professional who specializes in headshots will easily guide the session for exactly what you need.

Next, plan for the session with your photographer.  Discuss location, background, and wardrobe.  Who is your broker and what colors are prominent in the brand?  Make sure the clothing and background coordinate with the brand colors.  A simple studio background will allow for the headshot to be used for a variety of marketing materials.

Finally, relax and have fun during your headshot session!  Talk to your photographer and just be yourself.  Those relaxed smiles and poses will make the resulting images confident, warm, and welcoming.

Realtor headshots for Elia

Elia just got her real estate license in the state of Texas.  She’s ready to start a new career and needed a headshot.  Her broker is Keller Williams The Woodlands and the brand colors are mostly red and white.  Elia was reviewing the business cards and showed me a few of her favorite designs.  This discussion led to our choice of her grey sweater and her red sweater.  The dark grey background will look great with the darker business card and her headshot will fit seamlessly into the template.  She’s ready for marketing her new business.  All my best Elia in your new adventures!

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?

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.
