FAQ’s

  • We send out a comprehensive Headshot Guide when you book a session with a detailed guide but generally for headshots you should:

    • Stick to solid colors — they photograph cleanly and keep the focus on you.

    • Avoid busy patterns or logos that can be distracting.

    • Choose well-fitted NEW clothes that make you feel confident and comfortable.

    • Layers work well (like a blazer or jacket) to add depth and variety.

    Think about your industry and audience — finance, tech, or creative roles may lean toward slightly different styles — and bring options so we can pick what works best on camera wrinkle-free. (We do have a steamer on-site in case you forget!)

    For jewelry or accessories, less, if any, is more — aim for subtle accents rather than statement pieces.

    Most importantly, wear something you feel comfortable and confident in, because that confidence always comes through in the final image.

  • Hair and Makeup is highly recommended for both in-studio sessions and on-location shoots. Investing in professional styling ensures your team looks their best, reflecting the high quality of your brand.

    For individual studio sessions, we recommend booking one of our trusted HMUAs through us to ensure a seamless experience.

    We offer several services to suit any budget and have half day and full day rates for Group Sessions

  • Before your session, we’ll send you a detailed prep guide based on my 20 years of experience. But here are the essentials:

    • Wardrobe refresh – a new or well-fitted outfit can help you feel your best.

    • Take care of yourself – hydration, rest, and healthy habits show up in your skin and energy.

    • Consider professional hair & makeup – it’s an investment in looking polished.

    • Don’t stress – even if you’re camera-shy, I’ll guide you through simple poses to bring out natural, confident expressions.

  • We shoot at GOOD FRIEND STUDIO just by Central Market just off Guadalupe!

    Free Parking on site and on site cafe Terrible Love for a pre-shoot caffeine boost!

  • In Studio: We shoot using studio flash and daylight with multiple backgrounds. If you have a specific need for your marketing or company branding we’re happy to collaborate.

    After your session we upload your images to a private gallery for you to choose your favorite images to get retouched.

    Expedited Delivery can be purchased after the session if you wish to rush your order. Please ask at time of booking.

    Group sessions vary - but you can expect up to 14 days before you receive all your final retouches.

    Additional charges may apply depending on the complexity of the request.
