“I HATE HAVING MY PICTURE TAKEN!”

I get it—having your picture taken can feel awkward, but, you don’t need to be a pro at posing—that’s my job! Even if you feel unphotogenic, I’ll guide you to a magazine cover quality headshot.

My facial expression coaching helps you relax and feel confident as we perfect your look during the session. You’ll leave with a stunning headshot and a boost of self-confidence.

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.

Professional Headshots for LinkedIn, Print, Or Digital Marketing. Serving Maryland, Virginia, and Washington DC Area.

At Armato Headshots, I know that you are the kind of person who wants to be seen as an expert in your field. To do that, you need to have a professional headshot that elevates you and your brand above the noise. Maybe you feel anxious in front of the camera, think it will take too long or is too expensive. I understand these concerns. I wouldn’t say I liked having my picture taken, either. To help you feel comfortable, I coach every client throughout the shoot; you won’t even know the camera is there. My headshot sessions are generally just around an hour, but we have fun, and that time flies by! This is one of the most important investments you can make in yourself and your brand, as not having them could be costing you clients.

Rest assured that after your session, you will be seen as the expert that you are and will not be overlooked. These will get you more engagement on your website, LinkedIn, and other social platforms which can turn into new professional connections, clients, and bottom line, more income.
