Frequently Asked Questions
-
I specialize in headshots and branding for professionals, whether one person or a team. It could be your first professional headshot, or your much needed LinkedIn update, or a series of photos that you can use for social media content, your website, and PR. I don’t fit you into a box. I tailor the shoot to what you need.
-
I have individual headshot rates, team rates, half, or full day rates. The cost is determined by the scope and deliverables. For bigger projects I create a custom quote with different options. For companies that want new content quarterly, I have a retainer structure. If that’s a lot of words with little clarity. See below for some of our standard packages.

If you are looking for an individual professional headshot, just reach out via the contact form and I'll be in touch. If you are managing a team you can still reach out to me, but consider how many staff may need photographing, do you need group shots, or workspace imagery? It's great if you have at least a loose idea of what you need before we talk.
-
I'm a visual person, but I'm also a verbal person. I am not going to leave you hanging, or expect you to know how to arrange yourself for an optimal result. At it's core, the photo shoot is a conversation between subject and photographer. The resulting (amazing) images of you are the outcome of that collaboration.
-
Whenever possible I shoot tethered, meaning it's going straight to a laptop and you can see what we are getting in real time. I love this feedback loop. It helps you see what we are creating and you get to adjust in the moment. You might even adopt some of the techniques you learn during your shoot for your phone photos! If we are out in the field and shooting this way is slowing us down, I'll be periodically showing you the back of my camera instead.
-
My studio is in Gowanus, Brooklyn (that's between Carroll Gardens and Park Slope. It’s also near downtown Brooklyn, including Brooklyn Heights, Boerum Hill, Fort Greene, Prospect Heights and Cobble Hill.
I do the majority of my on-location photoshoots in Manhattan and Brooklyn. Though I can travel for work as well.
-
My clinical assessment would be...your normal. Preparation can make you feel more calm and collected. Don't over book yourself on the day of your shoot. Give yourself some extra pampering. For instance, choose a new outfit, set up a hair appointment, get a manicure. If you want me to provide any of these services, I can book them for you.
-
After we talk, I'll send you a guide for what to bring consider as far as wardrobe, makeup and hair is concerned.
-
I provide a color-graded set of images in a private viewing gallery within a week. Once you have made your final selections I can include removing blemishes, unwanted objects, stray hairs – anything to provide polished final work that retains a natural, custom finish. Allow a week for retouching (let me know if you need it sooner.)
Basic Packages for individual headshots in our Brooklyn studio or on location.
For bigger projects, like teams or branding, I create a custom quote with different options based on scope and deliverables. It’s generally more cost effective to choose a half or full-day rate for these situations.
