General Info

First impressions and the ability to grab someone's attention is critical in today’s market. Those few seconds are priceless. When you present yourself in the market, you want to grab attention and leave an impression. My goal is to capture your image in a way that will leave the most impactful and lasting effect from the very first glance. Whether your headshot is intended for modeling, acting, personal branding or professional development, we will collaborate together to create the right image that suits your needs. When I hold the camera I am your biggest fan and will help you find a captivating moment that is uniquely and remarkably - You. As a photographer, I see a headshot as more than a portrait, they are impressions of trust and approachability. Why would you call on me to shoot your headshot? Besides the best quality and price, my headshots are designed to market and promote. With the aim of giving you the highest quality headshots, I will instruct you in poses that fit the look you are striving for. This will provide you with a wide array of shots to use for various marketing and promotional purposes. Unlike a lot of my competitors, I do not limit the number of shots I take per look. Instead, we work together to make sure that you get the right shot. I like to give many different looks and styles. I want you to have as many options as possible to choose from- whether a grey, black, or red background with many different lighting configurations. I set up my computer right next to you as we shoot so you see the results, photos in real-time. I like to give you full control and help direct me in terms of what you want for your photos. Do you want the photos moody or happy? Do you want the shots more cropped or switch clothing, lighting or background. For standard headshots, I shoot everything 8x10 (2400x3000 pix). That has been the standard for many years. Anything larger will be difficult to transfer and store on your hard drive. With the aim of giving you the highest possible quality headshots, we prepare multiple different looks per session. This will provide you a wide array of shots to use for various marketing and promotional purposes. Unlike many of my competitors, I do not limit the number of shots I take per look. Instead, we will work together to make sure that we get the shot right before we move on. The process is interactive and dynamic - testing and trying things as we go. We will inspect each photo or group of photos as we go, and collaborate on picking the best and filtering out the rest. In our session, we generally end up with about 300-600 shots, you get the option to refine and delete photos for your final package if you wish. As your part in the agreement, you take the responsibility to communicate any concerns about the shoot. I measure my success by your happiness and willingness to promote both your shots and my work, so we’re not done until we both agree that you have the shots you want. Remember, we’re working with digital photos so we can delete and re-shoot to get what you want. When we complete the shoot, I will upload the final shots to a single online gallery service called Pixieset. It can be password protected if you wish and send you exclusive access - you are then free to share the username and password with anyone you feel should have it, including friends, family, agents, casting directors or other industry contacts. Your proof page will allow you and your friends to mark your favorite shots, and choose any that you would like to have retouched. I will keep the proofing page up for 1 month after our shoot in which anytime you can ask for a download link for the full list of JPEG photos. For quality retouching, we offer a complimentary service for three (3) retouched
