Professional headshots for Allen

I’ve known Allen for many years since we go to the same church in Spring.  I have taken his portrait for the church council a number of times as well.  He asked me for a headshot session for professional purposes.  Allen had a very specific idea of what he wanted, complete with example headshots that he showed me ahead of time.  I love this!  When a client has something specific in mind, the best thing to do is to send me a photo of something similar (or exactly) what you’d like.  We may not be able to re-create it exactly due to equipment and background differences.  However, we can get really, really close.  I look at things like the positioning of lighting, backgrounds, posing, etc.  I can usually tell how a photographer has lit the portrait and can re-create that same look.

What background should you use for your LinkedIn profile photo?

LinkedIn is a professional social media platform that fosters business connections.  Everyone who has subscribed to LinkedIn must have a profile photo, even if it’s the scary grey silhouette (I see you out there)!  I did a poll a few months back about backgrounds specifically geared toward the LinkedIn profile photo.  The majority of responders preferred the white background for a LinkedIn profile photo.  I tend to agree.  LinkedIn’s profile photos are very small and are now a round shape.  You don’t see much of the person at all.  A clean white background forces your eye to immediately focus on the person’s face, which is the point of a headshot after all.  A tight crop, a white background, and the proper lighting provide the perfect combination for a beautiful, professional LinkedIn profile photo.

Here’s the truth…

People decide if they want to work with you in seconds - and your visuals do the talking.

If you’re not attracting the right clients, take a look at your branding:

✔️ If your photos don’t reflect your brand, then potential clients won’t see your value.

✔️ If your online imagery is inconsistent, then it can be hard to build trust.

✔️ If you’re not showing yourself in your content, then clients miss the chance to connect with you.

✨ The good news? I can fix all of that.

With a personalized branding session, we’ll create a collection of images that reflect your personality, your professionalism, and your purpose—so the right clients see you and say yes.

Let’s be real—dating is already tough.

Your profile photos shouldn’t be what’s holding you back.

Here’s how personal branding photos can actually help you find your match:

✅ First Impressions Matter
In dating apps, your photo is everything. Low-quality, outdated, or awkward photos can get you passed over—before they even read your bio.

✅ You’ll Get More Views & Messages
Professional lighting, flattering angles, and natural poses = more swipes, more engagement, more chances to connect.

✅ Capture the Best Version of You
I’ll guide you through a session that feels relaxed, fun, and confident—no forced smiles or stiff poses. Just you, at your best.

✅ It’s an Investment in Yourself
You’d update your LinkedIn headshot, right? This is your personal life. A great profile photo says you care about how you show up—and that confidence is attractive.

✅ Better Photos = Better Matches
No more blurry bathroom selfies. A curated, professional look sets the tone for real connection.

This is your sign to stop relying on selfies and start showing up as the confident, attractive, amazing human you are.

📲 Contact Me to book your personal branding session—I’ll help you make an unforgettable first impression.

Let’s talk about what not to bring to your branding session…

As a professional photographer, I’m here to guide you through the entire process—but there are a few things I hope we can leave behind when it’s time to shoot.

🚫 1. Unplanned Outfits
Winging it with wardrobe almost always leads to stress or second-guessing. During your consultation, we’ll talk through outfit options, what photographs well, and how to reflect your brand’s vibe. Want a little extra help? I can connect you with one of my go-to wardrobe stylists to make the process effortless.

🚫 2. No Vision or Direction
You don’t have to show up with a Pinterest board—but having clarity around your brand message is key. That’s why I help you define your vision during our planning call so we can create images that actually work for your business.

🚫 3. A Rushed or Drained Mindset
Your session is an investment in you. So let’s make space for it. Give yourself time to rest, hydrate, and breathe beforehand—you’ll look and feel more confident (and it shows in your photos).

✨ The best part?
I walk you through all of this in your consultation. We’ll cover wardrobe, prep tips, props, posing, and everything you need to show up feeling calm, confident, and fully aligned with your brand.

Ready to create brand photos that look like you and work like magic?
