LinkedIn Headshots
LinkedIn Headshots for Professionals Who Want to Look Credible and Current
Your LinkedIn photo is the first impression clients, recruiters, and decision-makers see. A strong LinkedIn headshot helps you look confident, approachable, and aligned with where your career is headed — not where it’s been.
I’ll guide you through expressions, posture, and subtle adjustments that photograph naturally on LinkedIn, so your image feels polished without looking stiff or overproduced.
On-site Headshots
Coordinating headshots for your entire team can be a challenge — and getting everyone out of the office rarely works.
I bring the studio directly to your workplace, setting up in a conference room or common area to photograph your employees with minimal disruption.
Each person selects their favorite images and is back to work, all while maintaining a polished, consistent brand style.
Ideal for medical teams, law firms and professional service teams.
ERAS Headshots
Your ERAS photo is the first impression program directors see — and it matters.
I provide fully ERAS-compliant headshots designed to present you as professional, confident, and approachable. Sessions are efficient and relaxed, with clear guidance to ensure your photo meets program expectations without added stress.
