With our professional facial expression coaching and 5-star session experience, you’ll have a relaxed and fun session and leave with the best photo of yourself you’ve ever had.

Why The Headshot Studio?

It’s my job to make you look confident, approachable and professional. There are a ton of photographers out there, but when you step in front of my camera, my skills and training allow me to focus on connecting with and coaching you to get the perfect photo that conveys the perfect message.

Unmatched Quality

During your session I’ll coach you through facial expressions and how to pose. We’ll focus on the details until we get it just right.

Customized Experience

Whether you want to get in and out or shoot in a variety of outfits and backdrops, we move at a pace that’s comfortable for you with no time constraints.

Review As You Go

We review the images we’re capturing as we go so we know we’re on the right track and you like what we’re getting. At the end of the session, we’ll sort through the images and you can purchase your favorites.

Look Confident. Look Credible.
