Professional Headshot Pricing & What to Expect

Most people expect headshot pricing to be confusing.
Packages, bundles, stuff you don’t actually need.

This isn’t set up like that.

Let’s keep this simple

Most people just want a straight answer.

No confusing packages. No hidden fees. No guessing.

Here’s how it works.


The pricing structure

There are two parts:

1. The session
2. The images you actually want

That’s it.

You don’t have to commit to a bundle of images before you’ve even seen them.


Individual Headshot Sessions

Sessions start at only $125

This covers your time during the shoot, including:

  • Guidance throughout the session
  • Flexibility to try different looks
  • A relaxed, unrushed pace

After your session, you’ll receive a proof gallery where you can choose your favorite images.


Image Pricing

Images are purchased separately after you see them for only $50 each

Each image includes:

  • Professional retouching
  • Clean color and lighting adjustments

You only pay for what you actually want. Full resolution digital images are also available to purchase from your online proof gallery.

There’s no pressure to buy more than you need. Some people walk away with one image. Others build out a full set.


Why it’s set up this way

Most people don’t know how many images they’ll want until they actually see them.

Some need one solid headshot and they’re done.
Others want options for LinkedIn, a website, and different uses.

This keeps things flexible so you’re not locked into something that doesn’t fit.


What you’re really paying for

This isn’t just about getting “a photo.”

It’s about:

  • Looking confident without forcing it
  • Having something you’re actually comfortable using
  • Not needing to redo this again in six months

A strong headshot gets used everywhere.
LinkedIn, websites, internal directories, speaking engagements.

It matters more than most people expect.


How much do professional headshots cost?

Most individual sessions start at $125, with images purchased separately.

Final investment depends on how many images you decide to keep.

You can keep it simple with one image, or build out a full set.


Individual On-Site Headshot Sessions

For Professionals, Entrepreneurs, and Creatives

A flexible, on-location session designed for one person who wants to elevate their online presence with clean, modern headshots. Ideal for LinkedIn profiles, websites, speaker bios, and personal branding.

  • $125 for a 1-hour session
  • $50 per 30-minute extension (if more time is needed)
  • $50 per fully retouched image
  • Unlimited outfit changes within the booked time
  • On-location at your office, home, or preferred space
  • Portable studio lighting for polished, professional results
  • Private proofing gallery for selecting final images

This is a fully personalized session, great for anyone updating their personal brand or in need of a headshot that actually looks and feels like them without stepping into a studio.

  • 2 fully retouched images per person
  • 2 fully retouched team photos
  • Private proofing gallery for easy selection

This is a more personalized, boutique-style experience with individual posing and coaching, perfect for small groups who value attention to detail and flexibility.


Full On-Site Corporate Headshots

For Teams of 10 or More Employees

Ideal for large companies, conferences, and all-staff headshot days. Designed for efficiency, consistency, and scalability without compromising on quality. Your team gets in, gets photographed, and gets back to work without disruption.

  • $375/hour (2-hour minimum)
  • 20–30 people photographed per hour
  • 1 fully retouched image per person
  • Organized session flow with minimal disruption
  • Consistent backgrounds, lighting, and posing
  • Online gallery with bulk download for your company
  • Add-on options: team photos, priority turnaround, branded backgrounds

This is a streamlined, high-efficiency solution for updating your entire company’s online presence in one go.


What happens after your session

The process is straightforward:

  1. You receive a proof gallery
  2. You choose your images
  3. Retouching is completed
  4. Final images are delivered digitally

No complicated ordering process.
