With over 20 years of experience, I’ve had the privilege of photographing a wide range of professionals, helping them present themselves in a polished and professional light.

Heineken Headshots at the Conference in Dallas

It was quite an afternoon, setting up a headshot booth at the wellness fair and shooting over 250 portraits. I retouched all of the images and replaced the background with the brand color. I always try and schedule around a dozen headshots an hour, but sometimes the circumstance demands a quicker turnaround and for the purpose of an employee headshot I can often photograph many more in the time given. I'm always available for hire to cover any conference and would be happy to include a headshot photography booth as well. Please reach out for rates or headshot photography pricing.
