Whether you're seeking an update for your professional headshot, refreshing your company's team photos, or capturing your personal style, I will work with you to create a tailored session – whether in a studio setting, indoor environment or outdoor/natural light location.

My approach is all about making you feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera.

Let's collaborate to bring your vision to life and capture authentic moments that reflect who you are.

ENVIRONMENTAL PORTRAITS

BUSINESS SESSION

A less-formal approach to headshots–primarily at an outdoor urban/nature spot or a well-lit interior location. Outdoor headshots work best in early morning or late afternoon. Environmental portraits can take more time, since a number of locations and poses will be considered and can better represent you brand or business aesthetic.

  • PDF proofs for selections

  • One edited image/person + $55/additional edited image

  • Minimum 5 people for staff/corporate sessions


$300 base fee + $250/person + travel


INDIVIDUAL ARTISTIC SESSION

If you are looking for something beyond a standard headshot, consider a personal portrait session. Taking advantage of natural and/or studio lighting, we can collaborate to achieve a look that is your own. Perhaps it is your home or other interior/exterior location. We’ll spend a few hours together crafting looks from a variety of poses, lighting, and outfits. These are portraits that take more time and creativity, often with moments of unexpected inspiration.

  • A pre-determined indoor/outdoor location

  • Minimum 2 hours onsite including setup

  • 1-2 locations

  • 2-3 wardrobe changes

  • PDF proofs for selections

  • Choice of 2 edited images + $55/additional edited image

GROUP + TEAM PORTRAITS

Corporate teams, families or couples are posed on location or in a controlled environment with proper lighting.

  • 2-5 people*

  • Location of your choosing

  • Minimum 2 hours onsite

  • PDF proofs for selections

  • Choice of 2 edited images + $55/additional edited image

*For larger groups please inquire about a custom rate

$750 + $250/additional hour


Wardrobe Tips

What you wear is usually dictated by your personality, industry and/or intended use of the headshot. Here is an essential list of things to consider:

  • Opt for tailored outfits with structure that do not wrinkle easily

  • Avoid oversized jackets

  • Avoid clothing that is too tight

  • Opt for fabrics with little or no distracting patterns, such as large prints or fine stripes

  • Avoid reflective/shiny fabrics, such as satin

  • Darker colors work best against a lighter background

  • Scarves or neckties are the best way to add a pop of color

  • Jewelry or accessories should be simple and understated

  • Wear a color that complements your skin tones (bring 1-2 options if you are unsure)

  • Most importantly, be well-rested and relaxed to look your best!
