Session Types & Logistics

What is the difference between a studio headshot and an on-location session?

Studio sessions are the industry standard for individuals or small teams (1-5 people) seeking a controlled, distraction-free environment. These sessions typically utilize a standard professional backdrop, such as solid gray, white, or black, to focus entirely on the subject.

On-location sessions are designed for businesses and larger organizations needing 6 or more team members photographed efficiently. For these corporate portrait sessions, we bring our full studio, professional lighting, and camera setup directly to your office or location of choice. This provides maximum convenience for your employees and ensures a consistent visual brand identity across the entire team.

How much space is needed for an on-location corporate photography setup?

To replicate studio-quality lighting in your office, we require a minimum floor area of 8 feet by 20 feet. This space accommodates our backdrop system, professional lighting equipment, and the necessary camera-to-subject distance. This setup can easily be established in a conference room, lobby, or any open, available space within your facility.

Professional Headshot & Corporate Portrait FAQ

Planning & Wardrobe

What should I wear for my professional headshot?

We recommend wearing solid-colored clothing that fits well and avoids busy patterns, small checks, or distracting logos. Clothing choices significantly impact the quality of a portrait. If you have any questions, bring several outfits, and we can help you decide what will work best.

Dress as you would for a significant client meeting to ensure your image conveys professionalism. We advise bringing a few options, including a jacket or blazer, as different necklines frame the face differently in photographs. We will review your wardrobe choices with you at the start of the session to ensure the best look.

Delivery, Retouching & Turnaround

What is the typical turnaround time for final headshot images?

We pride ourselves on an efficient workflow that respects your time.

• Proof Gallery: You will receive a secure online proof gallery to make your image selections within 2 business days of the session.

• Final Delivery: Once your selections are finalized, the fully retouched, high-resolution images are delivered within 3-5 business days.

Is professional retouching included with my headshots?

Yes, every final image you purchase or select includes professional, high-end retouching. Our goal is to achieve a polished yet natural look, but not overdone. Our post-production process covers evening out skin tone, softening fine lines, removing temporary blemishes, and subtly brightening the eyes. We prioritize preserving the authentic look of the individual to ensure the photo looks like you on your best day.
