Meet Your Professional Headshot Photographer
I spend much of my time creating headshots that get people's attention. I'm often asked why my photographs show so much personality.
The best headshots are crafted with good photographic techniques including lighting composition, background choice, but most important of all is your personality.
As our society's attention span atrophies, it has never been more important to have a headshot that gets the viewer's attention. An average profile photo can easily get lost in the shuffle of life.
I will coach you into a fantastic headshot that gets you noticed in your marketplace.

FREQUENTLY ASKED HEADSHOT QUESTIONS
Below you will find the most commonly asked questions headshots I receive from my clients.
What Is Photo Retouching?
Retouching is the process by which we make you look amazing. We use computer software programs like Adobe Photoshop to smooth out your skin tone, remove blemishes, make your eyes pop, and even reshape you if necessary. Despite all the fancy computer software and digital techniques, great retouching is an art form.
Good retouchers know when to stop
Overly retouched photos look absolutely terrible. Even clown-like, you know what I'm talking about! Waxy skin and fake looking eyes. A perfectly retouched image should look natural. Great retouching should not be noticeable. It should lurk under the radar of the viewer.
HEADSHOT RETOUCHING EXPLAINED
Eyes
- Look best when you don't go overboard with the retouch.
- Make your eyes slightly larger. Sounds weird, looks fantastic. Requires a light touch.
- Lighten the whites of the eyes about 40% and remove any redness.
- Darken the edge of the eyelid to make the iris pop. We call it digital eyeliner.
- Brighten the iris about 15-20% will look amazing. More aggressive brightening will result in a "Children Of the Corn" look.
- Eyelashes can be thickened or duplicated for special close-ups.
Skin
- I like to soften skin just enough to have you not think about it. The key is to still see some texture or pores of the skin.
- Erase bags or dark circles under your eyes.
- smile lines.
- Uneven, blotches, sun discolorations will be removed or evened out to match skin tone.
- Tanning, whitening, or skin tone adjustment. Typically used for people with red or flushed skin.
- Blemish removal and makeup blending.
Hair
- Remove any fly-aways.
- Fix any bare spots.
- Highlight, darken, or add tint and shine.
Body
- Adjust body contours. We call it a digital diet.
- Reduce neck, under the chin, or face width.
- Slim arms, legs, or stomach.
- Smooth out any lumpiness in the body or cloths.
- Double chins removed.
Clothing
- De-wrinkle your blouse.
- Remove lint.
WHY ARE HEADSHOTS SO IMPORTANT?

Business headshots are important for your "about me" section on your website and marketing material. Maybe you have a new look or a new career path. These are all great opportunities to have your headshot portrait reflect this. Business cards are being replaced with all the online activity. Stay up to date.

WHO NEEDS A HEADSHOT PHOTOGRAPHER?
Business Headshots
Anyone involved in business would benefit from a great profile picture. Imagery can make or break your first impression on potential customers. A good profile shot will show off your unique personality, while the best portraits always have a bit of spontaneity.
Business portraits can be photographed in an Orange County studio or at your office. We often photograph employees in a conference room or outside their offices. Group or team photos are also popular when we photograph small, medium, or large-sized businesses.
Executive Headshots
Executive portraits are a little different than business portraits. Most executives want to communicate a feeling of leadership while appearing intelligent, wise, and friendly.
The best portraits will have three qualities. Intelligence, wisdom, and approachability. This triple punch is always a winning combo. Your executive headshot will set the tone for an entire company.
Content with relevant images gets 94% more views.
Executives can be photographed in an Orange County studio, at your office, or any location that makes sense with the corporation's mission. We often photograph executives and employees together in a conference room or outside their offices. Group or team photos are popular additions to these sessions.
Attorney or Lawyer Headshot
Images can make or break your potential client's first impression of your law firm. Imagery that makes you look honest and approachable will attract future clients who are searching for an attorney.
The best attorney portraits should always make you seem approachable rather than angry or tough.
Attorney Portraits should portray an expert in your field of law. Expert status is traditionally done with a background of law books or the Orange County courthouse in the background. We recommend a modern approach to avoid being confused with all your competitors creating similar headshots.
Most attorney websites are visually crowded and aesthetically unappealing. Your headshot is your opportunity to stand out from the other law firms in Orange County.
Every legal dispute is a potential marketing story that will not be read unless you pair it with incredible photography.
Realtor Headshots
Likability is everything for realtors, and there are ways to ensure you have a photo that reflects that.
Creating a memorable headshot can be done in many ways. My favorite is the use of bold colors. Many realtor's opt for headshots on location. Yes, a beautiful property will give context to your photo. Either strategy can yield a great picture that is memorable.
Your avatar is your flag in the sand people will see first. Make a better image and reap the business rewards.
Visual content is more than 40X more likely to get shared on social media than other types of content
Hire a professional photographer instead of a friend with a nice camera. Great Lighting, professional hair and makeup artist, and well-conceived photography will make the difference.
Actor & Model Headshots
An actor's headshot is the key that opens the door to work. Your first impression is everything. The best actors' portraits show off your personality.
Your eyes need to be alive and engaging, with an expression that almost speaks.
Most actors or actresses' headshots require a little more time to plan and photograph so we can get every detail just right.
Casting Directors look at hundreds of images every day. Avoid being lost in the shuffle by having a headshot with lookability!
