it's time for a refresh


Sometimes, we just need a little refresh. Maybe you changed your hairstyle recently or would like a handful of photos to use for your website or social media bios. Or you're speaking at an event and need a better photo to convey your personality.


Whatever the reason is, you know you need an updated headshot. This session is best for those who want the no-frills, let's-get-this-done approach. It's a stripped-down version of my personal branding services: there are no branding components (worksheet, shoot plan, planning call), proofing, or edit approvals.


Because this is a fast session and we won't be talking out branding details, be sure that you're comfortable with my photography style.

So what does a shoot with me look like?


Since this is only 30 min, we will say hi in the beginning and then dive right into the shoot. We'll fit in the photo crops you need and an outfit change (optional). We may also walk around the area if you want different backgrounds to choose from.

FAQ

what is needed to officially book with you?


Please complete a photo inquiry form. We'll then set up a discovery call. Next, I'll send you a proposal, contract, and invoice. You must complete all three to be officially booked. Portrait/modern headshot sessions need to be paid in full at the time of contract signing.

when are the shoots scheduled?


Monday to Friday, in the late mornings to afternoons. Since we're shooting outside, it'll be at least two hours before sunset. You can look up when sunset is on any future date with this website.

what counts as an outfit?


An outfit consists of a full look: if you need to go somewhere to change clothes, then that's an outfit. To make an outfit look different, consider layering items like cardigans, scarves, hats, and jewelry.

FAQ

where does this take place?


Anywhere outdoors in San Francisco. You can choose your location or we'll work together to find the perfect one for you. We can also do a walking shoot if you'd like varied backgrounds.

I've never had a professional photoshoot before. Is that okay?


Absolutely! I actually love to work with people who are having their photos taken professionally for the first time. Before a shoot, I'll send over a guide, so you know how to prepare. And during the shoot, I'll work with you on posing. But because this is a short session, I highly encourage you to practice some poses before the shoot.

what about props?


If it is small and you can carry it, sure. But if you're looking to bring a variety of props, then I suggest checking out the personal branding session.
