The Headshot Photograph

Whether you need a business headshot or acting headshot, the headshot photograph is essential to your success. Dare I say, it’s the number one, first and foremost place to start or refresh your image. Small businesses rely on the face of the company and that’s YOU! Larger corporations need to show the unity of their teams and how they are all working towards the same goal – to serve the client. Similarly, actors need a headshot when starting a career in acting and also frequent updates. Make sure your headshot is 1) CURRENT, 2) TRUE and 3) PROFESSIONAL! There are so many bad headshots out there. It truly pains me. You have literally seconds to make a first impression.

Examples of Recent Headshots

Here are a few of the recent headshots for business and acting. Natalie needed an updated headshot for work. We worked together to get just the right pose for her. Connor’s mom contacted me about his headshot. He’s getting ready to enter the workforce and now has a fantastic headshot for his resume and LinkedIn profile. Ready to tackle the job force! Simon is an actor, just getting started with a company out of New York City. He needed a headshot to send and we got three different looks for him. Finally, Jordan is a lawyer with a firm that I have photographed for a few years. His new headshot will be featured with the rest of the company and fit perfectly!

I get it—you’ve hired someone new, and now you need a matching headshot… but your original photographer is no longer available. 😬

Do you really have to start over and re-photograph the whole team?

Not if you hire someone who knows how to recreate what’s already working.

That’s where I come in.

When a company calls me in to match an existing set of headshots, I study every detail of your current images so your new photos blend in flawlessly—like they were taken on the same day.

Here’s what I focus on to make that happen:

✅ Lighting – Studio or natural? Soft, directional, or diffused?

✅ Background – Color, texture, and how sharp or blurry it is.

✅ Cropping & Composition – How close is the shot? What’s the framing like?

✅ Posing & Expression – Are your team members posed formally or relaxed and candid?

✅ Editing Style – Bright and airy? Bold and contrasty? Warm or cool tones?

📸 The result: a polished, consistent set of headshots that reflect your brand—even across time, locations, or different photographers.

✨ You don’t need to start over. You just need the right photographer.

Ready to match your headshots? I’d love to help. Send me a message to chat!

Your original headshot photographer is no longer available… and now you’re wondering if you have to start over.

Good news: you don’t.

When your team grows, I help you maintain that polished, cohesive look—even if I didn’t take the original photos. I study the lighting, background, posing, and editing style so your new team member blends in seamlessly.

Because when your headshots look consistent, your brand does too. ✨

Here’s the thing—your brand is always evolving.

You might be offering new services, connecting with a different audience, or stepping more confidently into your role as a business owner. But if your photos still reflect where you were years ago, they’re not telling the right story anymore.

📸 Great branding photography isn’t just about looking polished—it’s about feeling aligned.

Because strong, consistent visuals:

✨ Build instant trust

✨ Make your business look cohesive and professional

✨ Help your dream clients see themselves working with you

Your photos should support the business you’ve grown into—not hold you back from where you’re going next.

If you’re ready to elevate your brand, attract the right clients, and finally feel like your photos match your message—I’d love to help you get there.

When’s the last time you updated your brand photos? 🤔👇🏼

If your visuals don’t reflect how far you’ve come, you might be missing out on opportunities to connect with your ideal clients.

When Kristina and Brett—owners of a growing bookkeeping business—came to me, they were in the middle of a full rebrand. New website, new messaging, and yes… new photos! 📸

Their session wasn’t just about headshots. It was about telling the real story of who they are, how they serve small business owners, and why they love what they do.

We captured clean professional portraits and behind-the-scenes moments that brought their entire brand to life.

✨ Your brand should evolve with you—and your visuals should make people feel something the moment they land on your website.
