Frequently Asked Questions

“I hate having my photo taken.”

My favorite clients are people who hate having their photos taken! I will direct you and pose you through your entire photoshoot so that you can finally have photos you love.

“I feel self-conscious about the way I look.”

People want to see you in your marketing. And, I have the BEST makeup artist and hair stylist who will talk with you about exactly how you want to be styled. We will make sure you are looking like the best version of you.

“I wasn’t planning to spend that much money on photos.”

Think about how amazing it will be when you have endless content to post on your website, social media, in your email signature, on LinkedIn… It ends up being priceless and so worth it!

“I’m worried I won’t look like myself in the photos.”

This is YOUR photoshoot, and I absolutely want you to be yourself. My stylist will talk with you about how you want your hair and makeup done so that you are comfortable. I also make sure to edit the photos the way you want them— with either very natural editing or heavier. It’s totally up to you.

“I have nothing to post on social media.”

By the time I’m done with you, you’ll have photos to post all year. It takes so much stress out of doing social media!

“My last photos are from 10 years ago.”

No way! We need to change that. My clients love their photos and experience so much that they end up coming back every year!

“I’m not photogenic.”

Being photogenic isn’t even a real thing! It’s up to your photographer to know which angles and poses and lighting are best for you, and I promise you that I can change your mind about not being photogenic.

“I don’t know what to wear.”

My clients sometimes bring their whole closet, and I help them decide! The good thing is that you can wear multiple outfits, so you don’t have to worry about picking just one look.

“I need to lose weight first.”

I’m good for 20 pounds plus in posing alone! I specialize in photographing all body types in flattering ways. I got you!

“I’ve had a photoshoot done before, and I hated the photos.”

I’ve had some horrible experiences myself! I pose and light in a really flattering way, and you will finally have beautiful photos that you can use in your marketing, on your website, and on social media.

I would absolutely love to photograph you. When you are ready, I will be here.

“It’s too expensive.”

Totally understand. I do offer payment plans, just FYI. And if you ever change your mind, I’m here and would love to photograph you.

That’s such a normal feeling—99% of my clients felt the same way and left saying that they had such a great time. I promise I will take great care of you.

“I have no photos of myself on my website.”

We have to change that. People hire you for YOU, and they need to get to know you.

What makes a professional headshot?

A professional headshot is an inviting window into your personality. Think of it as a chance to show the world your best self — carefully crafted with perfect lighting and posing that brings out all those qualities you want people to see.

Can I take a professional headshot myself?

Ready to snap your own perfect headshot? Put solid color backdrop behind you, stand close to a North-facing window for perfect natural light, get a close up with your camera or cellphone.  Don’t forget that expression – it’s essential for making sure you look your best.

How do you look good in a professional headshot?

Take the time to create your ideal look! A good night’s rest, some H20 for hydration and professional styling are all essential steps. Pick clothing that make you feel confident – it’ll add an extra sparkle of confidence in front of the camera. Talk to your photographer about the message you want to convey, so you can project yourself at your very best!

What is the most effective headshot?

A great headshot should capture your inner light and make it impossible for the viewer to resist working with you. It’s like an irresistible ray of sunshine that will leave them smitten!

What color is best for headshots?

Let your personality shine and radiate through the clothing you wear! Solid colors of clothes will always be a vibrant choice, while bold patterns like stripes or polka dots may detract from what it is that makes YOU special.

Can I smile in a headshot?

While most people prefer a happy face in their professional headshots, it isn’t always necessary – the right expression really depends on what message you want to get across!

How do you not look fat in a headshot?

As the saying goes, it’s all in how you dress and pose! Show off your best assets with form-fitting clothes for flattering headshots – leaving those baggy outfits behind. Steer clear of patterns to let your natural beauty shine through – a talented photographer can even take away 20+ pounds from your headshot!

Will you edit my images? I am very self-conscious about the way I look.

Yes, we call it “responsible editing”. Let’s face it, we’ve all seen images of people who have been overly-Photoshopped and thought WOAH! People want to see the real you in your portraits and in your marketing images. We’ll make them say WOW! Our amazing hair and makeup artist will enhance your natural beauty. We’ll discuss how you want to be styled so that you’ll look like the best version of you on your best day! And we’ll of course edit those pesky fly always, blemishes and clothing bumps.

When do I get to see the images? I know I’ll be so excited!

We’re excited too! For full sessions we offer Ordering Appointments within 7 days. We recommend all decision makers be available. One ordering appointment is included with your session. For Headshot Minis, we conduct same-day Ordering Appointments.
