How it works

  1. Book online

    Pick a session and a Friday-to-Sunday time. A deposit holds your slot.

  2. Shoot in the studio

    I direct every pose and expression, so you never have to guess what to do with your hands. You see every frame on screen in real time.

  3. Pick and receive

    Choose favorites in your private gallery. Retouched files arrive within 3 business days, with one round of revisions.

Before you book

Questions

What if I don't love my photos?

If you don't love any of your images at the end of an individual studio session, tell me before you leave and choose a 100% refund of what you've paid or a free reshoot. You review every image on screen during the shoot, so you decide with everything in front of you. A reshoot uses the same outfit and replaces the first set. It doesn't cover wardrobe or hair choices.

Will I see the photos during the session?

Yes. Every frame appears on screen in real time, so we adjust pose, expression and light together as we go.

Are AI headshots good enough?

They're fast and cheap, but they smooth skin, shift features and tend to look alike. People notice. A directed session gives you an expression and a likeness that are actually yours, which is what a leadership page, LinkedIn or a press feature needs.

What should I wear?

Solid colors in fabrics that hold their shape. Skip fine stripes and small checks, which shimmer on camera. Bring two or three options and we'll choose together.

How fast do I get my photos?

Portrait: within 3 business days. Executive: within 2 business days. Signature: your favorite image the next day, the rest within 3 business days. All in a private online gallery.

Can I add more images?

Yes. Extra retouched images are $95 each, whether you choose them at your session or later from your gallery. Each session is priced so the package is always better value than adding extras: about $132 per image with Portrait, $99 with Executive and $90 with Signature.

How do I pay?

You pay your deposit online when you book, with any debit or credit card. The balance is due in person at the end of your session, by debit or credit card, Apple Pay, Zelle (Chase) or cash.

Where is the studio, and is there parking?

3405 Montgomery Dr, Santa Clara, CA 95054. Free street parking.
