Do you offer discounts for groups?

Absolutely! We have special rates for groups that offer significantly lower rates per person than if those individuals were to book individual sessions for themselves. Our group sessions are billed as a base rate, plus a price per person. The more individuals in a group, the lower the price per person. See our pricing page for more information or click here to request an quote.  

 

Do you offer military discounts

We do! As a veteran myself, I appreciate military service members, and I gladly offer a 10% discount for all active and prior military with ID. Use promo code MIL10 upon booking online and upload photo of military or veteran ID on online booking form.

 

When Will I Receive My Photos?

We email you a link to download and view your unretouched proofs online within 24 hours of your session. You’ll review the proofs and email us a list of the image numbers for the images you want us to retouch along with any special instructions you have for retouching. Retouching turnaround is 3-5 business days for individual sessions and may be slightly longer for group sessions. If you need your images retouched immediately, we do offer same day and next day turnaround for an additional fee.

 

How Many Clothing Changes (Looks) Are Allowed?

The 30 minute express studio headshot session package is limited to one outfit. The 1-hour executive headshot session package and location headshot session package do not have a limit the number of looks during a session; however, keep in mind there is a time limit on the session, so too many clothing changes will reduce the amount of time to take photos and the amount of photos we take. We recommend no more than 4 looks during our 1-hour headshot sessions.

 

What Should I Wear?  How do I prepare?  What should I bring?

Preparing yourself and your clothes is the most important thing you can do look your best for your headshot. Click here to view our Headshot Preparation and Styling Guide.

 

Can You Remove Blemishes On My Face?

Yes. We will remove non-permanent blemishes such as pimples, shaving cuts, dry skin, and unwanted hairs in our retouching process. We can remove permanent features such as moles, wrinkles, rosacea, and acne by request only. 

 

do you only shoot on a gray backdrop?
what other backdrop options do you have?

Gray is the best possible backdrop for modern corporate headshots. It's a versatile neutral tone that does not distract from you the subject, and it will match well with most clothing. We adjust the backdrop light to control the brightness and gradient to compliment what you wear. We occasionally do headshots on white backgrounds, which makes for a bright, fresh, and casual look and feel.

In studio, we can create backgrounds from black to white and any shade of gray in between. We can add color to the background, but it's not recommended for professional headshots. 

For a natural backdrop, we offer location headshot sessions where we can hold your session at an indoor or outdoor location of your choice, or we can replace the background in retouching with an image you are licensed to use and provide us, like a purchased stock image.

 

Do You Offer Weekend Sessions?

Yes. We can book sessions on weekends; however our availability is limited. You can see our weekend availability when you book your appointment online, or contact us for options.
