Where Your Professional Headshot Works

A professional headshot isn't decoration. It's doing real work in every place your name appears online.

LinkedIn Profile

Profiles with professional headshots get 21x more views. Your photo is the first thing people notice.

Company Website

Team pages, about pages, and leadership bios are where clients and partners form their first impression.

Speaker & Conference Bios

Event organizers need a polished headshot for programs, websites, and promotional materials.

Business Cards & Email Signatures

Every touchpoint where you put your name benefits from a photo that looks like you mean it.

Press & Media Coverage

Journalists, podcasts, and publications pull your headshot for any coverage you receive.

Proposals & Client Materials

Proposals, pitch decks, and client-facing materials that include your photo build trust before a meeting.

Who I Photograph

From first-time headshot clients to executives refreshing a five-year-old photo, here's who books sessions.

Executives & Managers

Your headshot is in annual reports, press kits, and investor materials. It needs to carry the weight of the role.

Realtors & Mortgage Professionals

Your face is on every listing, yard sign, and platform. A polished headshot builds trust before the first call.

Attorneys & Legal Professionals

Firm websites, Martindale-Hubbell, Avvo, and LinkedIn — trust is the product in law, and your photo is part of that.

Healthcare Providers

Practice websites, hospital directories, and ZocDoc profiles where patients are deciding who to call.

Financial Advisors

Clients are trusting you with their financial future. A professional photo is the first signal that you take that seriously.

Coaches & Consultants

Your personal brand is your business. A headshot that shows who you are, not just that you own a blazer, is the foundation.

Entrepreneurs & Founders

Websites, pitch decks, press, LinkedIn — when you're the brand, your photo is always in the room.

Anyone Who's Been Putting It Off

You know your current photo isn't doing you justice. This is the year you stop saying "I need to update that."

A Professional Headshot vs. a Photo Someone Took of You

The honest difference.

Lighting

A professional headshot uses controlled, dimensional lighting that shapes your face and eliminates unflattering shadows. Most candid photos use whatever light happens to be available. That's a visible difference at a glance.

Expression Direction

I coach you through subtle expression adjustments that get you to confident and approachable without looking like you're trying too hard. That's not something you can self-direct in a mirror.

Post-Processing

Professional retouching removes distractions without making you look like a different person. The goal is you on your best day, not a version of you that wouldn't be recognizable walking into a meeting.
