DO YOU HATE HAVING YOUR PICTURE TAKEN?

LACK OF CONFIDENCE, FEAR OF FAILURE, AND FEELING THAT YOU AREN'T PHOTOGENIC,
PREVENT YOU FROM SHOWING YOUR TRUE SELF

A PROFESSIONAL HEADSHOT EXPERIENCE CAN CHANGE EVERYTHING

Business Headshots

Most professionals dread getting their business headshots taken, expecting a stiff, uncomfortable experience. Working with a high-end photographer doesn't mean suffering through an awkward session. It means getting images you're actually proud to use. Great corporate headshots build credibility and earn client trust from the moment someone sees your photo.

Business headshots communicate credibility before you ever meet a potential client. People make snap judgments about your competence based on your professional image. In Harrisburg's business community, a strong corporate headshot establishes trust and positions you as someone worth doing business with.

Professional direction during your business headshot session brings out the confidence and expertise clients expect from you. Whether you need to project authority, approachability, or creative vision, the right coaching produces images that match your professional brand. Your headshot should work as hard as you do.

Acting Headshots

Casting directors and agents review hundreds of actor headshots every week looking for the right fit for their productions. Your acting headshots need to grab attention immediately and show your range as a performer. Professional headshots that capture your personality and type give you a real advantage over other actors competing for the same roles.

Acting headshots serve a specific purpose. Casting directors use them to decide if you have the look, energy, and presence they need for a particular character. Your headshot determines whether you get called in for an audition or passed over for someone whose photo better matches what they're looking for.

I have specialized in actor headshots throughout my career, working with Harrisburg performers across theater, film, and commercial work. I understand what casting directors respond to and how to bring out the qualities that get you noticed. My job is to deliver the best acting headshots you can use to compete for any role.

LinkedIn Headshots

Quality matters when potential clients scroll through LinkedIn search results or connection suggestions. A professionally photographed LinkedIn headshot immediately sets you apart in your industry. The difference between a professional headshot and a casual snapshot is obvious, and people notice that difference instantly when deciding who to reach out to.

Business results improve when you invest in professional LinkedIn headshots. People with professional photos get more connection requests accepted, more profile views, and more inbound messages from potential clients. Harrisburg professionals who upgrade their LinkedIn profile photo see measurable differences in their outreach success rates and networking effectiveness.

Your LinkedIn photo either opens doors or closes them. When someone is choosing between three similar professionals for a project or partnership, your headshot becomes the tiebreaker. The ROI on a professional LinkedIn headshot compounds over time as your network grows and more people discover your profile.

Office Headshots

Your focus is running your Harrisburg business, managing client relationships, and driving company growth. My focus is photographing your team at your office location and delivering consistent, professional headshots for everyone on your staff. You handle operations, I'll handle the headshots.

Companies invest heavily in their brand presence, marketing materials, and professional reputation. Team headshots that maintain consistency across your entire organization support that investment. Unified employee photos across all platforms reinforce the professional image you've worked hard to build.

When your staff presents as a cohesive, unified team via matching professional headshot photos, it strengthens your company's credibility. Office headshots that look consistent communicate attention to detail and organizational standards. That visual unity shows clients and partners that your business operates with professionalism at every level.

My work doesn’t stop at a single city or studio. I collaborate with a global network of professional headshot photographers across the United States and internationally, which allows me to support clients wherever their people are located. If your team spans multiple offices, states, or countries, you are not limited by geography, and neither am I.

When I’ve already worked with a client, this network becomes an extension of that relationship. I coordinate directly with trusted photographers in other locations to ensure your team members receive the same level of care, direction, and attention to detail. The goal is simple: no visual disconnect, no mismatched styles, and no surprises when images are placed side by side.

The result is a consistent, cohesive set of headshots that feels intentional across your entire organization and your brand. One visual standard. One professional presence. No matter where your people happen to be working.

Frequently Asked Questions

Don't See Your Question Here? Call me at (717) 925 - 0061

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR FOR MY SESSION?

I ask that everyone bring a variety of different clothing options. For the most part, you only need to bring along shirts and blouses, unless you plan on doing three-quarter length shots as well. Please bring a variety of your favorite tops. I may choose to shoot multiple looks, so make sure you have a nice range of clothing with you. You have to love it! Any number of things can work, but my clients tend to shoot with greater success when they are wearing things they feel great in. Don't be afraid to mix it up with different cuts, colors, layers, and textures. Bring attire that reflects you and your personality. Please try to avoid overly fuzzy and pilled sweaters. I generally lean toward solid colors.

WHY DO YOU ONLY SHOOT HORIZONTALLY?

I prefer to shoot horizontally because that is how humans see the world. In addition, a horizontal frame allows for space, so that your headshot doesn't appear constricted or confined between the narrow walls of a vertical crop. Plus, it's a more contemporary and widely accepted format.

WHY DO YOU CROP THE TOPS OF HEADS?

This is a very common question. I believe the most important information in a headshot is your expression. Having the clothing information around your shoulders and chest is important to get a sense of your identity as well. When your eyes are above the center line, it makes for a more impactful image. When the frame is adjusted to accommodate these features, the top of the head gets cropped. As long as the viewer gets a sense of your hairstyle, they can envision the rest of your hair. Plus, people will still assume that you still have your entire head. right?!

CAN I SEE MY IMAGES DURING THE SESSION?

Absolutely! I tend to pause frequently to give you a chance to see the images we create. I also use that time to coach and direct you; showing you what is working well and what we need to work on. In addition, I allow time at the end of the session to review the images we have taken during the course of the session.

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER MY SESSION?

At the end of your session, I will have your image(s) polished up and retouched. Once complete, I will place the work in your private proofing gallery. At this time, you will have the opportunity to review the image(s). Upon your approval of the work, I will enable the download feature on the gallery and you may save the image(s) to your computer.

SHOULD I INVEST IN YOUR MAKEUP ARTIST?

If you are a male, the answer is a resounding no. There is no need. I do encourage ladies to schedule my makeup artist for their session, however. It is remarkable how much more confident and relaxed a little time with an amazing makeup artist will make you feel.

WHAT ABOUT HAIR?

I ask that everyone come with their hair done as if they were presenting themselves to a casting director for an audition. We want your headshot to match the way you look in person on a regular basis. It must be something that you can recreate at will. My makeup artist will do some light primping, but will not style or re-style your hair.

WHO NEEDS A PROFESSIONAL HEADSHOT?

A professional headshot is not just a pretty picture. It is a personal and corporate branding tool. This is your virtual handshake and introduction to the world. Here is a list of people and professions that need a professional headshot: Who Needs a Solid Headshot?
