Headshots | Branding | PORTRAITS


We get professional photos done when we graduate high school and maybe when we graduate college, but what then? Think about it, when was the last time you invested in quality photos of yourself? Professional portraits can make a huge difference not only in your self-perception but also in your professional success. As our world becomes increasingly digital, it's ever more important to ensure that you are able to take control of your online narrative and visual presence. My approach to portraits is twofold. First, I will get to know you and figure out how to pull your personality out so that we can to capture your best self. Second, my aim is to always provide a portfolio of images that can be used for a myriad of purposes, from headshots to branding, from social media to business cards, from personal to professional uses. I realize professional photography is a serious investment for most people, so I work to ensure that this investment pays off. Portraits can be done on location in San Diego, CA, or in a studio setting (studio fees may apply).
