Who needs headshots? EVERYONE!  And if you are saying, “Oh, I don’t need a new one,” I would bet 70% of you are wrong.  Wrong, do you hear me? LOL  No, really, if your headshot is more than three years old, you should update it.  And if your headshot is on a business website, then it MUST be a professional headshot. Please do not think a selfie or cell phone casual picture is professional just because you like how you look in the image. It isn’t. People have always been visual creatures, but in today’s social media driven society, pictures sell services by themselves! So if ..read more

Headshots! Its always time for headshots! LOL When I poste headshot posts, I like to pull just a single one from a session. So as I was going through the list of outstanding blog posts yet to do, it was great to see and be reminded how much variety can occur with a simple headshot.  Being a Naperville headshot photographer, I get called on to create headshots for many reason. Obviously, mostly it is for business pictures to go on a company website or LinkedIn, like the below.   But for this next one, she was a dentist, so we went with a bright white background. Crisp and clean and w ..read more

If you read my blog, you know I think headshots are important – for EVERYONE! So when you are considering who to hire as your Naperville headshot photographer, there are many things to consider. But we will get to that. First off – if you have a job that has a website, you need a headshot. What’s more – you need a PROFESSIONAL headshot. Don’t think we, as a culture, don’t judge a book by its cover. We so do. You know you do. And not matter how much we teach our children to not judge people by how they look, we all make snap judgements. It is inherent. So does your picture say what you want it ..read more

Doing business headshots is one thing, but doing actor or modeling headshots is something all together else. And way more fun! LOL I’ve had the pleasure of working with a talent manager and providing headshot photography for some of his people last year. This lovely lady was one. She definitely had an edginess to her, so we worked with it. Doing acting/modeling pictures, we need to showcase some variety. I always think you should do some in studio. She liked to be serious, but it was important to see her smile, too. Because she had a beautiful smile! But this one right here is hands down my f ..read more

Let’s face it, we are a visual society. We pick books based on covers and movies based on posters. We pick doctors based on their pictures. First impressions matter. Therefore, the pictures on your website REALLY matter. It is your first impression to perspective clients. While I am definitely a portrait artist, I also do commercial work, as well. I loved working with this European Wax Center franchise, doing both some commercial pictures as well has headshots of the owner. So let’s start with the lobby which had this awesome product wall. And of course we had to show the actual lobby, itself ..read more

I’m a Naperville photographer, and many times, I am a headshot photographer. When you think of headshots, you probably either think of actors/models or you think of boring corporate headshots on business websites, right? Well, of course, those are two of the most commen types of headshot photography, but for as many industries there are, there are probably that many types of headshots and branding, as well. A headshot doesn’t have to be literally just a picture of your head and a little below the shoulders. Businesses aren’t always corporate, sometimes you get the creative industries like with ..read more

If you follow my work, you know I do tons of professional headshots, and usually, it is for business headshots. But sometimes I get to have fun and do professional headshots for models and actors, or those looking to break into those industries. We get to have a lot more fun on these sessions, because they have to emote and show sides to them, etc. I had the pleasure of photographing these two pretty sisters last year. The younger one, especially, as dreams of being on stage. We started off in studio with some more traditional headshots. And then with older sister, she had a totally different ..read more

I do headshots all the time. Many come to the studio for traditional corporate headshots, some I go on location to the company. And sometimes, I get a company who wants something a little different. I was thrilled when this Morgan Stanley group wanted both individual and group pictures in an outdoor setting. I gave them several options as to the look they wanted, and they liked the idea of a bit more rustic. I started with everyone’s individual headshot in the same location. Here are just a couple of them. It’s also great to do a “business portrait” over a traditional headshot. The main differ ..read more

One of the most common sessions I do are headshots. Who needs headshots? Everyone! No, seriously, pretty much everyone does need them. Sure, models and actors need headshots, but so do all professionals. Doctors are notoriously judged and selected based on their profile pictures. If you have a company website, then you probably also have a profile picture. Are you on LinkedIn? The image you use says a lot about you. Make sure it says what you want. If it is on a company site or LinkedIn, make sure you picture looks professional and not a selfie. And the last little bit of knowledge – please be ..read more
