Searching for that Perfect Headshot?

Let me first say that there’s probably no such thing as the perfect headshot.  Everyone has a role or function in their company and everyone is different.  Therefore, no one headshot is perfect for everyone!  However, there are a few things to keep in mind when planning for YOUR perfect headshot.

  1. Hire a professional photographer who specializes in headshots.  Yes, lots of photographers provide headshots.  But if you choose the cheapest photographer in your area, the results may be less than perfect.  Visit the Professional Photographers of America (PPA) website to learn about what makes a certified professional photographer and find one in your area.  Visit the photographer’s website and review their headshot work.
  2. Be prepared for your headshot session.  Plan your wardrobe and make sure that it’s clean and pressed and that it fits!  Bring a couple of options for wardrobe.  Hair and makeup for ladies should be appropriate for your position.  Get some rest the night before your session so you look fresh and friendly!
  3. Communicate with your photographer.  Tell your photographer anything that you can about the headshot.  What do you need it for (press publication, website, LinkedIn, company profile, etc.)?  Does it need to match or be similar to other company headshots?  Have you had a headshot in the past?  When was that and how did it go?

With a little planning before your headshot session, you can get YOUR perfect headshot.

Headshots for Capstone Family Practice

I have photographed the doctors and staff for Capstone Family Practice.  A new member joined the team and she came to the studio for her headshot.  We knew exactly which background and layout to use since we were matching the other headshots in the office.  Leah’s headshot is a great example of her perfect headshot.  It’s relaxed and comfortable and friendly, just like her!  We printed her headshot as well so that her headshot can join the others hanging in the office.  Well done, Leah and Capstone Family Practice!

You don`t need to BE confident to show up for a headshot session. The session creates the confidence.

Most professionals avoid updating their headshots because they think they need to feel confident first. But that`s backwards.

My clients are always surprised by how great their photos look—and that instant confidence boost changes how they show up in their business.

Here`s what happens when you work with me: 👇🏼

→ I guide your posing so you look natural and professional
→ I direct your expression so your personality shines through
→ I handle the lighting so you look polished and approachable
→ You walk away with imagery that makes you feel like the expert you already are

You don`t need to know how to pose or what to do with your hands. That`s my job. Your job is just to show up.

Ready to stop waiting until you "feel confident enough"? Let`s create the confidence together.

Here`s the truth 👇🏻

Most professionals avoid headshots because they`re scared it`ll feel awkward, forced, or fake.

But here`s what happens when you skip it ⬇️

❌ Outdated LinkedIn profiles
❌ Inconsistent team branding
❌ Missed opportunities to build instant credibility.

Your headshot isn`t just a photo. It`s your first impression working 24/7 across every platform where your business shows up.

Ready to get this handled without the stress? Let`s create headshots that actually represent the confident professional you are.

Can you spot the difference? 👀

Same company. Same brand consistency. Three different years.

This is the power of a group composite - and it`s a game-changer for growing teams.

Here`s how it works 👇🏻

Instead of wrestling with everyone`s schedule to get your entire team in one place at one time (we all know that`s impossible), I photograph each person individually. Then I composite them together into a polished group photo that looks like everyone showed up on the same day.

Why this solves your biggest scheduling nightmare:

✅ New hire starts next month? Add them seamlessly to your existing team photo
✅ Team member leaves? Update the composite without re-scheduling everyone
✅ Remote employees? They can get photographed separately and added in
✅ Someone`s unavailable on photo day? No problem - we`ll catch them later
✅ Your team photo always looks current and complete

Most businesses struggle with outdated team photos because coordinating 15+ calendars feels impossible. Group composites eliminate that friction entirely.

Ready to create a team photo solution that actually scales with your business?

Here`s the truth: feeling awkward on camera isn`t about you—it`s about not knowing what to do with yourself.

Most professionals freeze up because they`re thinking about how they look instead of what they`re communicating. That self-consciousness? It shows up in every frame.

Here`s what actually works:
✅ Give yourself something to do with your hands (gesture naturally, hold something meaningful)
✅ Think about your MESSAGE, not your appearance
✅ Remember: confidence comes from preparation, not perfection

When you show up prepared and focused on serving your audience, that natural confidence comes through. And that`s what builds credibility and connection.

Need professional imagery that actually represents the confident leader you are?

Let`s talk about creating headshots and brand content that work as hard as you do.

Exciting update for 2025: I’m now using Headshot Tools to make your team headshots even smoother!

Here`s the truth: The hardest part of team headshots isn`t the photography—it`s the chaos that comes after.

Tracking who chose which image. Chasing down approvals. Keeping everyone organized.

This year, I`ve integrated a system that eliminates all of that:

✨ Private proof galleries for each team member
📸 They choose their favorite on their own time
✅ I see selections instantly and deliver retouched images back to their gallery

No group emails. No confusion. No chasing people down.

When you bring me to your next corporate event, your team gets professional headshots without the coordination nightmare.

Ready to simplify your team`s headshot experience? Lets Talk.
