Effective Headshots That Get You Noticed!
“Your Headshot should be the biggest part of your Marketing Strategy"
Need Headshots?
Why the Headshot Strategist®
Did you know that within just a few seconds of seeing your photo, people have already decided whether to lean in—or scroll on?
That’s why your headshots matter. A lot.
The Headshot Strategist® Session is designed to help you clarify exactly what you want your audience to notice about you—and then make a plan to communicate that in every shot.
Your headshots are an investment in your future.
It’s not just about looking good.
It’s about making a clear, intentional first impression that sets the tone for everything that follows.
Stand out. Get noticed. Be remembered.
ACTORS
How it Works:
I take a different approach to headshots than most photographers—because I’m not just here to take your picture. I’m here to help you create effective, marketable headshots that truly work for you.
That’s why every session includes the Headshot Strategist® Program—a 1-hour video call we schedule before your shoot.
In this session, we’ll dive into:
• Where you are now—and where you’re going in your career
• The right wardrobe, looks, and “types” to support your goals
• How to use your headshots as a powerful part of your marketing strategy
It’s not just about looking good in a photo—it’s about being intentional, aligned, and seen.

Does your business headshot reflect who you really are?
The Headshot Strategist® Approach
This isn’t just a photo session—it’s a strategy session with a camera.
Before we ever step into the studio, you’ll schedule a 1-hour Headshot Strategist® video call.
This session is designed to give you clarity, confidence, and a game plan.
We’ll dive into:
• Where you are now—and where you’re headed
• What types, looks, and wardrobe will position you best
• How your headshots can support your larger marketing and career goals
By the time you show up to your shoot, you’ll know exactly what we’re creating—and why.
Because effective, marketable headshots don’t happen by accident. We plan for them.
I am defiantly not your "point and shoot" photographer.
With over 35 years of experience, I take a strategic—not just stylistic—
approach to headshots.
Every package includes a Headshot Strategist® session to help you get images that are marketable, aligned, and unforgettable.
