Office Headshots

It can be nearly impossible to coordinate getting everyone in your office to a photo studio.

By having me come set up in your lobby, conference area, or another appropriate area I can shoot office headshots for multiple employees, cause minimal workflow interruption, and ensure a consistent look and brand image across all of your headshots.

I shoot directly to a laptop where each person can view their images, select their favorites, and get on with their busy schedule.

Personal Branding Photography

This is more than just a headshot, this is a visual brand strategy.

Whether you're a business owner, entrepreneur, public speaker, business coach, military veteran, or spouse, your audience is looking for someone they can trust and relate to. Personal branding photography is the key to making that powerful first impression.
