HOW DOES IT WORK?

STEP 1

FIRST WE TALK ABOUT YOUR AIMS, NEEDS, FLAVOR, STYLE, OUTFIT, ACCESSORIES, DEADLINE, & COMPLEXITY TO MAKE A PLAN

A plan or direction for the shooting session can be simple & straightforward, more complex and involved, or something else, depending on your needs for the photo. We collaborate to get good results.

STEP 2

THE STUDIO IS SET UP BEFORE YOU ARRIVE, DO A QUICK CHECK IN THE MIRROR, SHOOT TEST SHOTS, MAKE ADJUSTMENTS: ALL READY!

When you’re ready, I’m ready. Our session is neither rushed nor stretched out unnecessarily. I describe how we aim for the goal, and keep a sharp eye on lighting, background, and wardrobe as we shoot. I coach and guide as we go. It’s my job to make you look good.

STEP 3

SHOOT, REVIEW IMAGES TOGETHER ON THE CAMERA, TWEAK, MAKE ADJUSTMENTS, SHOOT ADDITIONAL BATCHES UNTIL SATISFIED WE HAVE ENOUGH

The preliminary edit on the back of the camera is an essential step. Some shots and expressions inevitably look better than others. Keep the good ones, delete the not-so-good ones. We shoot until we’re both satisfied we have good shots from which to choose.

STEP 4

CALL IT A WRAP WHEN WE HAVE A GOOD SELECTION, PROOFS & FINAL PREPPED JPEGS EMAILED TO YOU 1 TO 2 DAYS LATER

Viewing the proofs on your computer or device will give a truer indication of how they’ll look when used online, in profiles, and on websites and social media. You also have more time to look them over, plus share with anyone else if you care to do so.

FAQ

How long does a portrait session take?2021-03-20T08:43:43-04:00

HOW LONG DOES A PORTRAIT SESSION TAKE?

The essential studio headshot roughly takes between 15 and 30 minutes. I don’t rush you, nor do I dawdle, instead I keep things moving along. We shoot batches of shots, and review them on the back of the camera. We can continue to shoot additional batches and review them until we’re satisfied we have enough good shots from which to choose. Call it a wrap when we’ve done enough. More elaborate, custom, and multiple outfits/backgrounds/settings would extend the time spent. Creative exploration sessions might take longer as we follow our ideas. I can provide a time range estimate for such projects.

Can we chat together before deciding to go ahead?2021-03-20T08:44:06-04:00

CAN WE CHAT TOGETHER BEFORE DECIDING TO GO AHEAD?

Absolutely––good idea! If you have concerns, questions, or uncertainty, a talk together beforehand would be a good thing to do. I can help steer you through the process and determine if I’m a good fit for what you’d like to accomplish. If previous encounters with the camera disappointed you, let’s talk about what we can do to make this a good experience, not a repeat of before.
