I love the idea of shooting headshots on location. Having my subjects in their own space creates an atmosphere of comfort for the shoot and it just really puts people at ease. Most times my corporate clients prefer this as opposed to a traditional studio shoot as it allows them to highlight their craft and showcase their passion for their own customers to see. I prefer and love natural light so I use a combination of any natural light that a location provides in addition to soft box strobes that are quick flashes of light which emulates natural light. I would say what makes me most excited is creating images that exude a client's personality. Headshots should truly be about someone's personality and it is so important for that to come through in their photos. What I typically hear from clients is that I made the experience fun. I absolutely love to laugh and have fun, so I really do love to hear this. I feel blessed to work with such amazing clients, it truly is a gift.
On-site Corporate Headshots
Sessions are relaxed and fun. Most decisions regarding location and styling will have taken place prior to the shoot which will allow us to have a fun and stress free session. While I am very serious about my job I am not a very serious person. I can guarantee you a lot of laughs on location and a really great time overall. I will provide a tremendous amount of direction in terms how to pose in ways that will look and feel natural. In terms of time, I typically spend one and a half to two hours with my clients. In most cases we are shooting outside with natural light so the most ideal time to shoot is 2 hours prior to sunset.
What are sessions like?
It typically takes me 1-2 weeks to edit the session, depending on the time of year. I have learned over the years that clients prefer for me to send over an online gallery as opposed to meeting in person to review. I think it allows you to view the images and share with friends and family without feeling pressured to make decisions. The online gallery is a place where you can choose your favorite images and download right from this location.
What happens after the session?
I start by getting to know you and what you are looking to achieve. It is important that we communicate over email and text several times prior to the shoot to discuss location and styling. The styling component is an important element in creating the mood of the shoot. I will often weigh in on the wardrobe choices. In some cases I will create mood boards for clients, essentially this is a collage consisting of images of locations and samples of clothing to consider. I have learned that sessions run smoothly when we have a creative concept to work off of prior to the shoot.

Frequently asked questions
I truly love fashion photography and all things fashion, so you will see that my work typically reflects this. My initial foray in photography was back in college in the days of film. As the photography world has changed and evolved to digital, the fundamental concepts of lighting and composition have not. Film photography for me has always had a more “fine art” feel to it and I have always loved that. I think having this background in film has shaped my approach and style of photography. I love images that have some sort of texture and grain so I look for that while planning a shoot, whether that texture is in the clothing on my subject or in the background of the image.
