Our goal is simple: to create a handful of photos that represent you at your best. Sessions with us don’t feel like a typical portrait shoot—it’s more like hanging out, with a camera. With subtle posing guidance, you'll naturally fall into a relaxed, familiar stance. If you have a look in mind, share it with us, and we’ll tailor it to match your style.

If you're like most of us, camera uneasiness begins as soon one is pointed at you. You might try to recreate that perfect smile from a favorite photo, worrying the whole time if you’re pulling it off. But here’s the truth: that version of you isn’t coming back. The world is ready for your upgrade and it’s time to give them what they want.

This page is a guide to get you through the portrait process.

Wardrobe. Choose an outfit that reflects a polished and professional style within the industry you belong to. While trending fashion aesthetics work great for social purposes, we recommend simpler styling for a business portrait. A plain shirt, button-down or otherwise, works well and a jacket is a good complementing piece. Colors like cream, taupe, or cappuccino can look flattering, and if you need a neutral piece, you can wear navy, gray or white. To maintain the attention on you, let’s stay with solid colors vs. striking, distracting print patterns. Email Josh here.

Skincare. Few things do better than essential grooming. Wash your face thoroughly and apply moisturizer the night before if you have dry skin. While it’s no secret that sleep is good for you, try to have as much as you can some days leading up to your session. Mindful application of makeup should also be considered. We also offer professional makeup service as an option, please reach out for details. Click here to see our 140+ 5-star Google reviews.

Don’t worry about trying to look like an expert. Look like you. With nearly 8 billion people in the world, no one else has your unique voice. Our session is all about celebrating you as an individual and the value you bring to your organization. We’ll guide you through posing and expressions. An experience with us allows clients to unlearn how photos were previously taken and develop photo habits that present authenticity and candid confidence. You’re in good hands. Questions?
