There are some clients you get to know over time. I’ve worked with Jordan Smith on a few photography projects, and our sessions are always enjoyable. Jordan brings a lot of energy with her, and there is usually plenty of laughter mixed in with whatever we’re trying to accomplish that day. This session felt a […]

You have a professional headshot. Maybe it’s even a really good one. But every time you need an image for your website, LinkedIn, a speaking engagement, social media post, email campaign, or new marketing piece, you find yourself reaching for that same photograph. That’s often when a professional headshot is no longer enough. A personal […]

If you’re planning professional headshots for your company, one of the first questions you’re likely to have is: How much should we budget for corporate headshots?

A company website with outdated, mismatched staff photos sends a message long before anyone reads a single word. If your attorneys, physicians, executives, or client-facing team members look inconsistent from page to page, people notice. Corporate team headshots are not just a visual upgrade.

Some photo sessions move quickly, and that’s ok because some need to. Others unfold more like a collaboration. Working with Paulette Jones on her recent personal branding photography session felt very much like the latter.

When Sheila Eason reached out for a personal branding photography session, I was already familiar with her work.
