My Fine Art Portraiture photography sessions are designed for artists, survivors, seekers.  You may be marking a transition, commemorating a milestone, or just be needing a new Linkedin pic.  But together we can create something special.

Before the Shoot: A Conversation, Not a Questionnaire

Before we ever pick up the camera, we’ll schedule a reflective consultation, either in person or via video call. This is where we talk. Not just logistics — but intention. Why this portrait matters to you. What you’re feeling. What you want to see, or show, or release.

We’ll create a moodboard together, selecting tones, textures, and references that speak to you.

There’s no pressure to perform. This is just about listening.

Arrival: Stepping into the Space

On the day of the shoot, we meet in a space that feels quiet and contained. That could be at my studio, a location we’ve chosen together, or even your own home.

We provide hair and make up, unless you have your own preference.

You don’t need to “get ready.”

The Sitting:

Over the course of an unhurried hour , we’ll photograph in short bursts. We might change outfits, I’ll change lighting setups

We will start with what I call the “LinkedIn look” first.  This will be more of a nice looking, professional photo that you can use for your resume, CV, or LinkedIn profile.  Clean, bright, competent, and confident.  It will be professional, but it won’t be generic.  You’ll have the best corporate photo in your company.  Guaranteed to get that promotion!

A variant of this is the Actor’s Headshot.  There’s a specific look to it.  It should be unadorned so that the casting director can see your face, but also show enough that they can envision you inhabiting characters.  You can then use it for your onesheet.  Not to brag, but major roles have been booked, in part, thanks to our headshot!

After the Session: Selection and Editing

During the shoot we will periodically be looking at the photos to get an idea of where we are at.  Then by the end of the session, we will have a rough selection of several dozens.

After the shoot is when the work starts behind the scenes.  I’ll narrow it down to a handful (really you only need two great ones!) and hand-edit each image with care and subtle retouching.  No Tik Tok filters, I’ll remove flyaway hairs, etc.  Basically it is still you, ie, if it is something that won’t be there next week (like sudden pimples), I’ll remove it.

Within two weeks, you’ll receive a private gallery of up to 5 final portraits as well as other unretouched “outtakes”.

The final portraits will be in hi-res as well as smaller social media ready size.

If you’d like, I can help you select one to be framed or mounted as a physical piece.
