Boston Headshot Photographer

Once you've booked and paid for your session you'll get an email confirmation with wardrobe and accessory guidance. Generally dark and / or neutral colors work best for headshots, though sometimes bright bold colors can be fun for certain applications. Bring a range of wardrobe options and we'll experiment and see what works best for you. Remember though, if it isn't in my studio I can't shoot it!

Yes, your session and image fees include basic color correction and retouching. This may typically include skin tone adjustments, removal of flyaway hairs and blemishes, lint on clothing, etc. Heavy retouching, which I strongly advise against, may incur an additional fee.

Your session fee, which must be pre-paid upon booking on this site, can be paid with Visa, Master Card, American Express, or PayPal. Additional images may be paid for at the time of your session with the above credit cards, Venmo, PayPal, or cash.

Retouched images are delivered within 10 business days as high-resolution digital files. You'll get a private online gallery where you can download and share them.

My entire process is designed to help you look your best! It starts with wardrobe selection, then lighting, posing, and expression. The look I go for is something I call 'approachable confidence.' If you've spent any time at all on my site you probably already have a good idea what that looks like! I'll coach and direct you through our shoot and you'll see your images get better and better throughout our session.

A typical individual session runs about 45 to 60 minutes. That includes wardrobe review, lighting setup, and the shoot itself. On a team Headshot Day, each person is photographed in about ten minutes once we're set up.

My studio is in Sherborn, MA, about 30 minutes west of Boston. It's easy to get to from anywhere in the metro area. For team sessions, we come to your office or location anywhere in the greater Boston area.

My Sherborn studio is convenient to professionals throughout the Metrowest area and greater Boston, including but not limited to Holliston, Hopkinton, Natick, Needham, Wellesley, Weston, Newton, Concord, Lincoln, Brookline, Framingham, Dover, Sudbury, Westwood, Dedham, Milford, and Boston. I also specialize in actor headshots in Boston, Cambridge, and Somerville. For Boston team headshots, we travel to offices in the city and across Cambridge, Wellesley, Newton, Framingham, Waltham, Burlington, Worcester, and beyond.

Absolutely. LinkedIn is one of the most common uses for my headshots. The images I deliver are high-resolution and formatted to look sharp on LinkedIn, your company website, speaker bios, and print materials.

A headshot is typically shoulders-up against a clean background, ideal for LinkedIn, company directories, and email signatures. A business portrait is more editorial, often incorporating environment, body language, and more of your personality. I offer both.

I recommend updating your headshot every 2 or 3 years, or whenever there's been a significant change in your appearance. If someone meets you in person and can't reconcile you with your photo, it's time for a new one. For more on this, see Natural Light vs. Studio Lighting for Headshots.

Yes. For team sessions we bring the full studio setup to your office or location, and handle all the setup and breakdown. All we need is about 10 feet by 10 feet of clear space and access to a power outlet. We serve Boston, Cambridge, Wellesley, Newton, Framingham, Waltham, and beyond.

You're in good company. Most of my clients feel exactly this way when they walk in. Coaching you through the process is a core part of what I do. By the time we're a few minutes in, you'll be relaxed and we'll be getting great shots.

Yes, please do! I encourage you to bring 3 to 5 options. We'll review them together at the start of the session and choose the ones that work best on camera. Variety gives us more to work with.

Your session includes one fully retouched, high-resolution image. Many clients end up wanting 2 to 4 additional images to suit different professional and personal applications, which can be purchased at the time of your session. You'll see all your shots during the session so you can choose your favorites.
