Elevate Your Brand with a Professional Headshot Photographer
Most people don’t actually want a headshot. They just need one.
From planning to final delivery, you’re not left guessing at any point.
You’ll know exactly what to do, what to wear, and how this all comes together before we even start shooting.
From planning to image delivery you get guidance every step of the way:
- Pre-Session Consultation
We’ll talk through your goals, attire suggestions, branding needs, and preferred style. - Studio or On-Location Session
I can meet you on-location or schedule your session in the Ann Arbor studio. - Streamlined Workflow
Unlimited looks and locations within your session time. We’ll keep things efficient and on brand. - Fast Turnaround
Photos are delivered in a private gallery within days, not weeks.
What the process looks like
1. Pre-Session Consultation
We’ll talk through what you actually need.
That includes:
- Where the images will be used
- What kind of look fits your brand or role
- What to wear and what to avoid
- Location ideas if you don’t already have one
Most people come in unsure. That’s completely normal. We figure it out together.
2. On-Location or Office Session
I don’t run a high-volume studio with people cycling in and out.
Instead, I photograph headshots:
- At your office
- On location
- Or in a clean, natural light setup
If you need something more structured, I can also bring a full setup directly to you.
The goal is simple.
Your headshot should feel natural, not staged.
3. Guided, Efficient Session
You don’t need to know how to pose.
I guide you through everything:
- Where to stand
- What to do with your hands
- Subtle expression changes that actually matter on camera
We move efficiently, but never rushed.
You’ll have the flexibility to try different looks, angles, and backgrounds within your session time.
4. Fast, Straightforward Delivery
No long waits. No confusion.
You’ll receive a private proof gallery within a few days.
From there:
- You select your favorites
- I professionally retouch your chosen images
- Final images are delivered digitally
Simple and clean from start to finish.
This is not a typical studio experience
If you’ve had headshots done before, there’s a good chance it felt rushed or awkward.
That’s exactly what I avoid.
No assembly line.
No stiff poses.
No guessing what to do.
Everything is built around helping you look confident and natural without forcing it.
Who this is for
This works especially well if you’re:
- Updating your LinkedIn or professional profile
- Building a personal brand or business presence
- An actor who needs clean, expressive headshots
- Part of a team that wants consistency without looking robotic
If you care how you show up, this matters more than you think.

Most people overthink this. The process takes care of it.
Where should headshots be taken?
That depends on what you need.
Some people want:
- A clean, simple background
- A natural outdoor setting
- A professional office look
We decide that together based on your goals, not a preset formula.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where do sessions take place?
Headshots are done on location, not in a traditional studio.
That could be:
- Your office
- A clean indoor space with natural light
- A downtown or outdoor setting
- Or a setup I bring directly to you
If you’re not sure what makes the most sense, we’ll figure that out together before the session.
How long does a headshot session last?
For individual sessions, timing is flexible depending on what you need.
For company sessions, most teams book a two-hour block, which allows enough time to photograph everyone without rushing.
If you need more time, we can always extend it.
Do I need to know how to pose?
No. That’s my job.
Most people I work with say some version of “I’m not good in front of a camera.”
You don’t need to be.
I guide you through everything during the session so you look natural and confident without overthinking it.
How are the images delivered?
You’ll receive a private online gallery within a few days of your session.
From there:
- You choose your favorite images
- I professionally retouch your selections
- Final images are delivered digitally for download
Simple and straightforward.
Who typically books professional headshots?
A mix of people, but most fall into a few categories:
- Professionals updating LinkedIn or company profiles
- Business owners building a personal brand
- Actors who need clean, expressive headshots
- Teams that want a consistent look across their staff
If you need to show up professionally somewhere, this applies to you.
What should I wear for headshots?
Simple, clean, and something that fits well.
Solid colors usually work best. Avoid busy patterns or anything distracting.
If you’re unsure, I’ll help you choose outfits before your session so you’re not guessing.
Final note
Most people walk into this expecting it to feel awkward.
Almost all of them leave saying it was way easier than they thought.
That’s not by accident. That’s the whole point.
