Book Your Session
 
  • πŸ’° Pricing & What's Included

    One flat rate. No tiers, no upsells, no surprises. While other NYC headshot photographers offer tiered packages that nickel-and-dime outfit changes and file formats, I offer one comprehensive session that includes everything β€” because I'd rather you show up relaxed than counting looks. This applies whether you're booking corporate headshots, actor headshots, or a solo LinkedIn session.

    πŸ‘” Unlimited Outfits & Looks

    Bring everything. Seriously. No limits on outfit changes. An on-set steamer and clothing rack are ready for you. Most headshot photographers in NYC cap you at 1–3 looks β€” I don't. The more variety you bring, the more options you leave with, whether you need a conservative corporate look, a creative actor headshot, or both.

    πŸ“Έ Corporate, Actor & LinkedIn Headshot Photography Styles

    Corporate to editorial, LinkedIn to casting β€” covered in one session. I shoot multiple lighting styles and setups within every session:

    • Corporate headshots β€” clean, professional, and consistent for teams and executives

    • Executive headshots β€” polished portraits for leadership bios and press

    • LinkedIn headshots β€” approachable, on-brand photos built for your profile

    • Actor headshots β€” theatrical and commercial looks built for casting directors

    • Full-body and creative portraits β€” for comp cards, portfolios, and branding

    Studio and outdoor options both available in SoHo or on location across Manhattan.

    ⚑Same-Day Headshot Delivery in NYC

    Your photos, delivered before you go to bed. All photos delivered the same day your session wraps β€” including RAW files and high-res JPEGs, stored on Dropbox for 6 months. Most NYC headshot photographers take 5–10 days. I don't see a reason for that. All files delivered at 300 DPI in 8x10 aspect ratio, with full usage rights included.

    ✏️ Professional Headshot Retouching Included

    Professional edits included, no extra invoice. Every session includes eight standard edits or one premium retouch (up to 4 hours of detailed work). Need more? I'll connect you with affordable third-party retouchers I trust.

    πŸ“… SoHo Headshot Studio β€” Hours & Booking

    SoHo studio. Flexible hours. Fast responses. My studio is in the heart of SoHo β€” easy to reach for clients across Manhattan and all five boroughs. I work around your schedule, including evenings and weekends, and respond quickly by phone or email.

    πŸ’„Makeup Artist for Headshots (Optional)

    Optional β€” and that's intentional. A makeup artist is never required at my sessions. If you want one, I can recommend someone. If you don't, you'll save the $150–$250 other studios quietly build into their pricing.

    ⭐NYC Headshot Photographer Reviews

    Over 300 five-star Google reviews. Headshots only β€” no weddings, no events, no splitting focus. What you see in my portfolio is what you'll get. I specialize exclusively in corporate, executive, LinkedIn, and actor headshots because doing one thing exceptionally well beats doing many things adequately.

  • My studio is in SoHo, New York City β€” easy to reach from anywhere in Manhattan and all five boroughs by subway.

  • Yes. Every session includes same-day delivery of RAW files and high-res JPEGs, so you're never waiting days for your photos.

  • Yes, bring whatever you want to wear. There's no limit on outfit changes, and an on-set steamer and clothing rack are available so everything looks camera-ready.

  • No β€” makeup is optional at every session. If you'd like one, I can recommend someone; if not, you save the cost most studios build into their pricing.

  • You receive both RAW files and high-res JPEGs at 300 DPI, delivered with full usage rights β€” no licensing restrictions.

  • Your photos are stored on Dropbox for 6 months after delivery.

  • Yes, both studio and outdoor sessions are available depending on the look you're going for.

  • Yes. I work around your schedule, including evenings and weekends, and respond quickly by phone or email.

  • Retouching is included in every session β€” eight standard edits or one premium retouch (up to 4 hours of work) β€” with no separate invoice.

  • Yes. See the speech for theatrical vs. commercial specifics and what casting directors look for.

  • A headshot is a tightly framed, purpose-built photo used for professional identification β€” LinkedIn, casting, or corporate bios. A portrait is broader in style and framing, often more artistic or personal. Every session I shoot can cover both.

  • The main categories are corporate (clean, consistent, for teams and executives), LinkedIn (approachable and on-brand), actor/theatrical (casting-focused), and creative/editorial (more stylized, for portfolios and branding). One session covers all of them.

  • You can, but it shows. Casting directors, recruiters, and clients notice lighting, framing, and consistency β€” a professional headshot signals you take the role or job seriously in a way a phone photo doesn't.

  • Item descriptionBring a range of outfits (solid colors and simple patterns photograph best), come with clean, camera-ready skin, and get a good night's sleep beforehand. Since outfit changes are unlimited, you don't need to overthink it β€” bring options and we'll figure out what works during the session.

  • Most professionals update every 1–2 years, or sooner if your appearance changes significantly (haircut, weight change) or you've moved into a new role. Actors typically refresh headshots more often to match current casting needs.

  • No β€” your LinkedIn profile photo is visible to anyone who views your profile, connected or not. That's exactly why it's worth having a professional one; it's often the first impression someone gets of you.

  • AI headshot generators can look uncanny or overly smoothed up close, and casting directors, recruiters, and clients are increasingly good at spotting them. A real session also gives you consistent lighting, genuine expressions, and multiple authentic looks β€” something AI tools built from a handful of selfies can't reliably reproduce.
