 Do you hate having your photo taken? 

Think you never look good in photos? You’re not alone. It’s one of the things I hear most often. But don’t worry. Everyone is photogenic and can look amazing in photos. I ensure you’ll look amazing with facial expression coaching. We’ll have so much fun you’ll forget all about the camera or how you look. You’ll come away with professional headshots that let your character shine through and make you stand out from the crowd.

A professional headshot is more than a photo.

It gives you...

  • Employability

    A bad photo can impact your job opportunities. Professionalism suggests you’re taking your life seriously, and a great headshot makes you look like someone they want to hire.

  • Likeability

    The best headshot will make you look approachable and cheerful. It puts people at ease and creates a positive first impression.

  • Integrity

    Nothing builds trust like a great professional headshot that shows you, or your business, in the best possible light.

Get One, Give Back.

It’s important to me to give back, and therefore I donate headshot sessions to people working towards self-sufficiency in partnership with a nonprofit, Food Bank for New York City.
