Planning
Before the session, we’ll confirm how you plan to use your headshots, your preferred look, location or background, and any outfit considerations.
Guided Session
You don’t need to know how to pose. I’ll guide your posture, angles, and expressions throughout the session so the images feel confident and natural.

You’ll select the image or images included with your session for professional retouching. Additional retouched images or the full color-corrected gallery can also be purchased.
Delivery

Business Headshots for LinkedIn, Websites & Professional Profiles
A professional business headshot should reflect how you want clients, employers, and colleagues to see you. Whether you need a polished LinkedIn portrait, an approachable image for your company website, or an executive headshot for media and speaking engagements, I tailor the lighting, expression, background, and framing to your intended use.
For business headshots in New Orleans, I photograph both traditional studio-style portraits and environmental headshots that incorporate your workplace. During the session, we'll create expressions and compositions that feel authentic, confident, and appropriate for your profession.
The goal is a versatile professional image that represents you consistently across your business and online presence.

Where Headshot Sessions Happen
Your session can be photographed in the setting that best fits your profession, brand, and how you plan to use the images.
Studio-Style Headshots
Best for a clean, polished look with controlled lighting and simple backgrounds. This works especially well for LinkedIn, executive profiles, medical professionals, attorneys, actors, and other professional uses.
On-Location Headshots
Headshots can also be photographed at your office, workplace, hotel, or another professional location when you want a more natural or environmental look.
Office & Team Headshots
For companies that need consistent headshots across multiple employees, I can bring a professional lighting and background setup directly to your office or event location.
Professional Headshots by Industry in New Orleans
Different professions call for different styles of headshots. I adjust lighting, backgrounds, expression, framing, and overall presentation based on how the images will actually be used.
Attorney & Law Firm Headshots
Professional headshots for attorneys, partners, associates, and legal teams can be photographed individually or on-location for an entire firm. Sessions are designed for law firm websites, LinkedIn, professional directories, speaking engagements, and marketing while maintaining a consistent, polished look across the team.

Headshots can be photographed in business attire, a white coat, or both, with an emphasis on professionalism and approachability.
Real Estate Agent Headshots
Headshots for real estate agents, Realtors, and brokers can range from clean traditional portraits to more relaxed, personality-driven images for brokerage websites, social media, business cards, email signatures, and marketing.

What to Wear for Professional Headshots in New Orleans
A little preparation makes the session smoother and helps your photos look intentional. I’ll help you choose locations and timing, and you can keep outfits simple and flattering.
-
Solid colors and minimal patterns photograph best
-
Bring 1–2 looks: one classic, one relaxed
-
If photographing outdoors, late-afternoon light often provides softer, more flattering light.
I’ll guide the session from start to finish so you are not left guessing how to stand, where to look, or what expression works best. The goal is a clean, professional headshot that feels polished without looking stiff.

Do you help with posing?
Yes. I’ll guide you through simple, flattering poses and expressions so you look confident and natural—especially if you’re not used to being photographed.

Solid, simple colors photograph best. Avoid loud patterns and large logos. Bring 1–2 outfit options that match your industry, and I’ll help you choose what looks best on camera.
How fast is turnaround?
Most individual sessions deliver within 3–5 business days after you select favorites. Rush delivery is available for deadlines.

Can I change outfits during the session?
Yes—outfit changes are optional and depend on time, location logistics, and your goals. For a 1-hour session, 1–2 looks is typically realistic.
