The Perfect Time for Family Portraits

Let’s be honest.  As in all things, there is never a “perfect” time for family portraits.  And when I say time, I mean season.  Family portraits are appropriate and necessary in all seasons of life.  So do it now.  Not in 10 pounds or when the age-defying cream sets in.  The time is now.  Your family is beautiful and perfect just the way they are.  In all of life’s chaotic mess and the stress of everyday life…the family portrait session is an opportunity to slow down and honor what means the most to you.  Family.  This is the glue that binds us together, supporting us when we falter and cheering us on at the end of the race.   When you pass by the family portraits hanging on the walls of your home, you will smile and remember this beautiful family and the moments you shared just being together and honoring each other.

The Gonsoulin Family

Leah contacted me about an extended family portrait session.  The family was gathered for the holidays and there were over 30 people in total.  So we met for the session and I photographed each family, individual couples, grandparents, kids with girlfriends or boyfriends and their dog.  It was a fantastic session.  And a beautiful reminder of what truly matters…

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❌ Outdated LinkedIn profiles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.

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.

Want flawless, consistent headshots every single time? Here's the secret 👇🏻

The right equipment and settings.

When you're starting out, headshot photography can feel inconsistent—great results one session, frustrating the next.

Here's what I've learned: Consistency isn't about luck. It's about dialing in your setup.

✅ The right lens and focal length
✅ Lighting that flatters every face
✅ Camera settings you can replicate
✅ A process that works under pressure

When you nail these fundamentals, you stop second-guessing yourself. Your clients get professional results every time. And you build a reputation for quality they can count on.

Here's the truth ⬇️ 

Coordinating headshots for conference attendees shouldn't fall on your already-overloaded admin team.

If you're planning a conference with attendees flying in from all over, here's what happens when you add a professional headshot station to your event:

✅ Zero scheduling coordination (no calendar nightmare)
✅ Professional headshots captured on-site during the event
✅ Automatic delivery via link—no manual file sending
✅ Optional email capture for your database (bonus networking intel)
✅ Literally zero admin work for your team

The software handles everything. Your attendees get professional headshots. You get organized delivery and optional email data. Your admin team gets their sanity back.
