FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

My photo studio is located at 219 West Rittenhouse Street in Philadelphia's Germantown neighborhood. I also offer on-location sessions throughout the Greater Philadelphia area for groups.

Most of my clients feel nervous before their session, and that's completely normal! I actually specialize in making camera-shy people feel comfortable in front of the camera. I am confident I can help anyone get a headshot that they're proud to show the world. I'll coach you throughout the entire shoot to help you get the best possible photos for what you need. We'll review the images together on a computer throughout the session so you can see exactly what we're getting. This collaborative process helps ease any anxiety about being photographed.

Headshot session times vary depending on what kind of session you schedule. Most full headshot sessions are less than 2 hours. This includes time to review your outfit choices, discuss what you need the headshots for, take photos with multiple looks and backgrounds, and review images together. I move at your pace to ensure you're comfortable with what we're getting throughout!

Wear what you'd wear to an important meeting or client presentation. Bring 2-5 outfit options to choose from. Solid colors work best - avoid busy patterns. For corporate headshots, professional business attire is recommended, but I really want to show off a bit of your personality with the clothes. For actor headshots, bring both casual and dressy options. Check out my complete headshot wardrobe guide.

Your retouched photos will be ready within 10 days of selecting your favorites. Need them sooner? Same-day rush retouching is available for $50 per image.

Yes! I specialize in professional headshots for all purposes including corporate executives, business professionals, LinkedIn profiles, actors, models, medical professionals, lawyers, and personal branding. I've photographed every professional headshot use case over the years! Each session is completely tailored to the individual.

A great headshot should look like you on your best day - natural, confident, and approachable. It needs proper lighting to eliminate shadows, a clean background that doesn't distract, and professional retouching that enhances without looking fake. Most importantly, it should capture your personality and make a strong first impression.

Absolutely! I offer corporate team headshot sessions both in my studio and on-location at your office. This ensures all your headshots have a consistent look, ensuring brand consistency across your team. Contact me for a custom quote.
