How does a session work? We've designed our sessions to be straightforward and stress-free. Once you're ready to book, a 50% retainer secures a session. The process begins with a private video consultation. Your vision, our methods to attain them, scheduling and outfits will be discussed. The date and location can be chosen later. To help everyone prepare, a pre-session guide will be sent. To ensure your complete satisfaction, we dedicate an hour of camera time, with the flexibility to extend as necessary. After the session, a curated selection of 15 to 30 proofs will be provided for your consideration.

For studio sessions at your location, we'll arrive an hour early to set up. Camera time typically lasts about an hour and is extended when necessary. We can review your images together, either on-site or online. We'll offer some friendly advice, but the final choices are always yours – no pressure, just great photos. Your professionally edited images will then be securely delivered electronically, both in color and black and white. Click here to see our 140+ 5-star Google reviews.

Do you shoot more than headshots? Yes, we also offer group and event photography. For specialized needs, please request a custom quote.

Please note, these unedited images represent the raw material before our signature editing process.

What do we wear to the session? To create a versatile set of photos, we recommend bringing two outfits – one formal and one casual. We're happy to schedule a video call to discuss your vision and our approach.

Where are you based and do you travel for sessions? While based in Washington, DC, we frequently travel to San Francisco and are available for assignments nationwide. We can conduct sessions in our studio, your office, or outdoor locations. Travel fees cover only transportation and accommodation; all other expenses are on us.

Do you advise clients on location selection for outdoor portrait sessions? Yes, and we believe the location should enhance your professional narrative. For instance, corporate clients, a modern urban environment can project a sense of confidence and sophistication. Ultimately, we work with you to select a location that best aligns with your brand and personal style.

What is your rescheduling and cancellation policy, including weather-related situations? We understand that plans can change. You’re welcome to reschedule your session with no additional fees up to two weeks prior. For weather-related rescheduling, a 48-hour notice is necessary. Rescheduling with less than 48 hours' notice will require a new 50% retainer to secure a new date. Please be aware that the 50% retainer is non-refundable.

Do you assist with session planning? Absolutely. We offer comprehensive planning support and collaborate closely with you to understand your vision and develop a tailored strategy to achieve your desired results.
