Q&A

For more info, reach out anytime.

  • What does it cost?

    It depends on what you're needing. 


    Single headshots start at $290. And so if you want additional looks and backgrounds and or need other kinds of images, we can figure out together what that looks like.


    As a starting point, check out the Pricing page which provides some overviews, 


    If you have any questions, or would like a quote for what you're looking for, just let me know.

  • How long does it usually take?

    Typically a single headshot can easily be created within an hour. Factors include whether it's inside or outside, along with how much set-up might be required.


    Reach out to let us know what you're needing and we can walk through the specific details.

  • What's a good location / what's the background?

    Like a number of the other questions... it really depends on what you're wanting / needing. Where we start at the end and work backwards.


    Having said that is the question of "Inside?"... with artificial lights, strobes, etc.... or "Outside?" (with the use of natural sunlight, reflectors, etc.)... which is really the question: what is the background?


    Is is something natural / outside?

    Is it some blurred out cool / simple interior space?

    Is is simply black, white, gray, etc?


    Do you have a sense of the look and feel you're wanting to co-create? I recommend doing a search for images via Google using keywords for what you're looking — e.g. great head shots, LinkedIn profiles, actor headshots, bio images for websites — and start a folder of images that "speak" to you, that is, in conveying how you want others to feel when they see your headshot.


    For places outside, we start with a list of locations that you have a connection with. Your yard? A park? A place you know that feels peaceful? Once there, we find a place where the lighting is great and find the moments we're looking for.


    If inside... as I come to you, what interior spaces do you have access to that could be used to achieve the feeling of what you're looking for. A bright room you love to be in? A space to set up backdrop paper if that's the look you're wanting? Other?


    Reach out anytime to start a conversation.

  • What do I wear?

    First and foremost, something you feel fabulous in. In creating something authentic we want this to reflect who you truly are.


    Having said that, we aim to stay away from all white and/or complex patterning.


    We advise bringing a couple different favorite outfits with you so we can decide together. 

  • What makes a professional headshot?

    It's a combination or experience, timing, equipment, and the synergy and flow created between the photographer and woman or man being photographed.


    Often, too, people are trying to look good (or not look bad) rather than aspiring to simply be themselves. Which is my goal every time.

  • What if I want / need more than 1 image?

    There a couple ways to go in terms of having 1, 2, 3, or more "looks" in terms of outfits and locations.


    I also offer a branding package that includes a half-day of image creating that includes details of your brand or business.


    Give a call and we can explore what feels ideal for you.

  • Can you do multiple people?

    For sure. I can be brought in by a business to their location to photograph multiple wo/men on the team. Depending on the total number the cost per headshots adjusts accordingly.


    Reach out anytime to learn more.

  • Do you offer any kind of guarantee?

    Absolutely. The goal is an image (or collection of images) that support you / your brand / your business with satisfaction guaranteed. I'm committed to co-creating together until you feel like we've "got" it.
