Professional Headshots

Are you a candidate for a Professional Headshot?



If a distinctive visual brand is important for your career or business, you are!

There are many uses for a Professional Headshot:

- Use it for your your job search on LinkedIn

- Place a tiny version in your email signature;

- Update your company's website;

- Print your headshot for acting;

- Use as brand identity for your small business;

- Use it as your profile picture on Facebook.

Why is it important to have a professional take your headshot?


Because you only have one chance to cause a good first impression.

We live in the age of social media and we do business with people that we may never meet in person. 

People instinctively read body language and may decide if they want to do business with you based on the message they receive from what they see online, therefore it is essential to communicate who you are with a professional image that captures your essence.

The fact that you care about how you present yourself in public speaks volumes about you and your business!


How does a headshot session look like?

The typical headshot session lasts around 60 minutes. The reason why I reserve all this time is because I don't want you to feel rushed. 

This time allows for a change of outfit if we deem necessary, and for careful  review of the images produced,- on a profiled computer monitor,-  so that we can critique the images during the session and adjust your posing and expression until you are totally satisfied with how you look.

Before you leave the studio, you'll have chosen your favorite image. I will expertly guide you through the process of elimination by utilizing a special software that allows you to compare images side by side, mark your favorites and then compare them again, until you find your absolutely best shot.


What past clients say about these sessions?

"I just fielded another compliment on my headshot on LinkedIn. It has literally been a constant stream of positive feedback. And the best of it? People are saying “what a great shot; it captures you!” “Stunning,” was another. Our session together was affirming, instructive and garnered great results. Your ability to understand my body language and photo hang ups helped immensely. Suggestions like reviewing my past headshots allowed us to understand where to go with our shoot. I appreciated deeply that you could coach me to a photo that is true to my spirit and hopes. I look forward to our upcoming appointment to take family photos". Elizabeth Higgins, Senior Director of Programs - PCR.
“Karen and I really like the way the picture came out. We had a great time meeting you, and you made the whole process painless!”  
Michael Barton, Paramedic Firefighter.

"Amazing work!  I was exclaiming all over the office 'she made me look small' 'and I am beautiful! Thank you!" Nicole Love.
