"If you're anything like me then you probably dread having pictures taken. I rarely like what I see when I look at the photos. This time was different. I absolutely love these pictures. I couldn't believe how great they turned out. Kevin partnered with me to help bring out the best in me. He allowed me to truly step into my SWAGGER and let it shine. I could not be happier with the headshots Kevin took. Thank you, Kevin!"

Preparing for your Headshot Session, FAQ's.
I don't feel photogenic. Can you still capture an exceptional headshot?
So many people tell me they hate their headshot. It’s not you. It’s because the photographer who took your picture didn’t know how to make you shine. That’s my superpower!
Through my coaching, photography experience and people skills, together we'll create a fantastic image. I'll show you in real time what your strengths are, and guide you to comfortable and confident in front of the camera. I guarantee you'll love the final product.
What should I wear to the shoot?
Avoid busy patterns, textures, or distracting necklines. For Business or Corporate Headshot sessions, wear your favorite suit or business attire, a crisp shirt, your go-to tie, and pocket square, etc. Have all clothes cleaned and pressed before the shoot. Pay attention to older shirts which may have collars that have become soft or floppy over time, or fit too loose or tight around the neck. If you're going for smart casual, wear your absolute favorite clothes.
Feel free to bring several wardrobe changes. There’s no time limit on our session, we shoot until we get what we need, so make the most of it. Bring the clothes that make look and feel your very best. You’ll be amazed how you feel in front of the camera when you're wearing something that makes you feel confident.
If you’re an actor or entertainer, you'll likely want a range of images. So let’s chat in more detail on the phone to decide on target age ranges, characters, and looks we'll want to produce.
Hair & Makeup
I recommend keeping makeup simple and clean looking. Whether you’re using our makeup artist, your own, or you're doing your own makeup, it’s a good idea to start a regime a few days before the shoot of drinking plenty of water and moisturizing your skin more than usual. Hydrated skin looks amazing on camera.
If you are looking for hair and makeup service, we have great referrals for you!
What should I expect during the shoot?
You may either arrive dressed and ready to go, or use our changing room and makeup mirror. At the start of the shoot, I'll take a few warmup shots and we'll stop to review them. You may be a natural model, but if you're not 100% comfortable in front of the lens, I’ll let you know what to do to improve the images. Facial expression coaching is the value-added feature and I'll coach you throughout the session to create the very best images possible. Above all, we will have fun!.
At the end of the session, we'll sit down and choose the images like the best.
What can I expect my finished headshot to look like?
GREAT! -- Because we'll keep shooting until you're happy with what we have. Honestly I've never had anyone tell me they didn't like the final images we produced.
Do I need to book an appointment?
Yes, just find one of our "Book your Headshot Today" buttons. Once you're there, pick a day and time that's works for you.
Do I need to leave a deposit to book a session?
Yes. Dates fill up fast, so in order for us to hold your place on the calendar, the session fee is taken during booking and will be applied to the final cost of your photoshoot. At the same time, we understand that sometimes life happens and you may need to reschedule. We ask that you notify us within 48 hrs of the shoot and try to reschedule within 30 days. We’ll happily apply your deposit to the new date. No-shows on the scheduled shoot day will forfeit the session fee.
Do you offer group or corporate rates?
Yes, we do! Please call, email or use the contact form for more details.
How and when will I receive my headshots?
All of the final images you purchase will be professionally retouched. You can expect delivery within 7-10 days. Rush orders are available, as well. We will deliver your high-resolution jpeg image(s) through DropBox. I will also send you low-resolution, cropped "web use" images for your social media channels.
