Your headshot is often the first impression people have of you.
Whether someone is visiting your website, connecting with you on LinkedIn, reading your company bio, or finding you through social media, your photograph communicates something about you before you ever have the opportunity to introduce yourself.
For professionals in Frederick, Maryland, having a polished, professional headshot is an important part of building a strong personal brand. I offer three headshot and personal branding package options, which are all customizable for your specific needs.
Professional Headshots for Frederick, Maryland Professionals
I have been a professional photographer for nearly 17 years, specializing in portraits for individuals, families, businesses, and organizations.
Over the years, I have photographed hundreds of professionals, from small business owners and entrepreneurs to executives, medical professionals, attorneys, educators, and corporate teams.
My goal with every headshot session is to create an image that looks professional and polished while still looking like you.
A great headshot shouldn’t feel stiff, overly posed, or disconnected from your personality. It should give people a sense of who they can expect to meet when they walk through your door or sit across the table from you.
Headshots for Individuals and Businesses
Whether you need a new LinkedIn photo or headshots for an entire organization, I create a consistent, professional look for your team.
Headshot sessions can be customized for:
- LinkedIn profiles
- Business websites
- Personal branding
- Company websites and staff directories
- Corporate teams
- Medical practices
- Attorneys and law firms
- Real estate professionals
- Entrepreneurs and small business owners
- Speaking engagements and publications
- Social media profiles
- Press and media appearances
For companies and organizations, I also photograph multiple people during a single session while maintaining a consistent look across the entire team.
Your Headshot Should Look Like You
One of the biggest mistakes I see with professional headshots is trying too hard to create a “corporate” photograph.
The best headshots don’t have to feel corporate.
Depending on your profession and personal brand, your session might be clean and traditional, warm and approachable, modern and editorial, or relaxed and personality-driven.
Before we begin, we’ll talk about where you’re using your images and what you want your photographs to communicate. From there, I’ll guide you through posing, expression, and positioning so you don’t have to figure out what to do in front of the camera.
You don’t need to know how to pose.
That’s my job.
Headshot Photography in Frederick, MD
Frederick is home to an incredible variety of businesses and professionals, and I love creating images that reflect the people behind those businesses.
Whether you’re launching a new business, updating your professional image, stepping into a new leadership role, or simply realizing that your current headshot is several years (and several hairstyles) out of date, a professional headshot session can make a huge difference.
And if you’re thinking, “I hate having my picture taken,” you’re definitely not alone.
My job isn’t just to take a photograph. It’s to help you feel comfortable enough that your personality actually comes through in the final images.
