Signature Studio Headshots
The real you.
Feel seen.
At ease.
A headshot is more than just a photo. It’s a reflection of your presence, your professionalism, and your story. A great headshot speaks volumes about who you are, and where you’re going.
Studio headshot sessions are thoughtfully designed to put you at ease, with the goal of capturing a small collection of authentic, timeless images that actually feel like you – ones you’re proud to share.

The
Format
Held every month-or-two, Signature Headshot Days are an opportunity to capture polished profile-style photos that leave a lasting impression of who you are, in a short & sweet style shoot format.
We book sessions back-to-back through the day to optimize our time in the studio, maintaining high-quality and premium experience in a smaller sized package for you.
The Experience
What you can expect before, during and after your session.

Every Detail, Just Right
Post-Shoot Gallery: Pick your favourites
A Seamless Delivery
Upon reserving your spot, I’ll share my pre-shoot preparation guide with practical tips to help you feel prepared and at ease. I’m also available for a pre-shoot call to discuss the process and make sure we’re aligned before we shoot.
I’ll guide you through natural poses in a relaxed, collaborative space where your ideas combined with my expertise shape the session.
We’ll review your shots as we go, making adjustments as we desire to ensure you leave with confidence in what we captured.
Our on-site stylist, Lyz, is there to support you with adjustments to makeup & hair, ensuring you’re looking and feeling great. Think: a change of lipstick between outfits (if lipstick is your thing), reduction of shine, and combing away of flyaways.
Your selected images will be thoughtfully edited and delivered in a digital gallery, in both color and black and white. I’ll provide a clear ETA on when you can expect your images and am happy to work with specific deadlines as required.
After the shoot, you’ll receive a private proofs gallery to review your proofs at your own pace and select your very favourites.
You can select your choice of 2 fully retouched images, or 6 lightly retouched images, and additional images can always be purchased if there are more you love.
