Portrait Photography

A headshot session with Tara Flannery Photography can be anything that you want it to be. Headshots are no longer limited to the studio look with a portrait orientation and a chest and up view. Portrait photography involves creating the likeness of a person. With creativity and planning, we can create a custom branding and portrait photography session to create fantastic images of you. Depending on the type of headshot session that you choose, we can try different backgrounds, lighting scenarios, wardrobe, and posing to make the very best portraits. Before the session, we will discuss all of these options and make a plan for the session. I can’t wait to see what we can create for you!

Branding portraits for Jenn

Jenn is a sorority sister of mine. She contacted me about getting some branding portraits done for her real estate business. I was so thrilled that she asked me to do this! She brought her daughter along to the session for help, which I love because it’s always nice to have someone there at the session cheering you on. We started with a studio setup and got this amazing image of her in the chair. Then we moved to a natural light setup and she absolutely loved these for her closeup headshots. Finally, we ended at a nearby model home for a couple of outdoor images. She now has a portfolio of branding images for her business. Jenn can use them for banners, websites, social media, business cards, flyers, signs, and so much more. All my best Jenn in your business – I wish you much success!

Your headshot should work as hard as you do.

When professional racecar driver Jak Crawford came to me for updated images, he wanted something more polished—something that could represent him beyond the track. Because being an athlete today isn’t just about performance… it’s about presence.

📸 Whether you`re pitching to sponsors, featured in the media, or building your brand online, a strong athlete headshot tells the world: I’m ready.

And not just ready to compete—but ready to grow, lead, and make an impact.

If your current headshot doesn’t reflect where you are (or where you`re going), let’s change that.

✨📸 Practice what you preach, right?

I always tell my clients how important it is to keep their headshots fresh and aligned with their brand - and I mean it. Over the years, I’ve updated my own headshots as my business has grown & changed (swipe 👉🏼 to see the growth).

Because here`s the truth: your brand isn’t static. Your vision shifts, your confidence builds, and your purposes evolves - and your imagery should evolve with it.

Your headshot should feel like you - not who you were five years ago, not who you thought you had to be, but who you are RIGHT NOW. That’s the person people want to connect with.

So if it’s been a few years (or more, I don’t judge 😉), maybe it’s time for a refresh. Let’s make sure your headshot reflects the amazing, current version of YOU.

Here’s what I would say…

If you`re wondering whether you should reschedule your headshot session, here`s the breakdown:

✨ DO reschedule if:

You`re feeling under the weather 🤧 (no one wants to spread germs or push through when you`re not at your best)

You have a facial rash, skin peeling, or excessive puffiness that affects your overall comfort and confidence

🚫 DON’T stress or reschedule for:

A shaving nick
A breakout or blemish
Puffy eyes or dark circles
Forehead lines or wrinkles
Cold sores or minor irritation

🧼 I’ve got you covered when it comes to light retouching—my editing style enhances without overdoing it. You’ll still look like YOU, just the best version.

📸 Now, let’s talk prep:

✔️ Men: Schedule a haircut a few days before your session (not the day-of!)

✔️ Ladies: Make sure your hair is cut, colored, and styled—I’ve got hair + makeup covered for Executive Headshots if you want to take the stress off!

✔️ Wardrobe: Try on your outfit ahead of time—fit and comfort are key

✔️ Night before: Get a good night’s sleep & hydrate for that natural glow

✨ The best part? We go over ALL of this during your consultation. I’ll guide you every step of the way so you feel fully prepared and confident going into your session.

The #1 mistake people make when rescheduling their headshot session👇🏼

Rescheduling for the wrong reason!

Life happens - sometimes you wake up with a breakout, or maybe your nicked yourself shaving. But before you hit that reschedule button, let’s talk about what actually needs a new session…and what I can easily fix with editing & retouching!
