A Few Things People Ask Me

1. Who do you photograph?
I work with professionals of all kinds—business owners, executives, creatives, actors, and students. Whether it’s for LinkedIn, your website, a portfolio, or a speaking event, I’ll help you look confident, relaxed, and like your best self.

2. Do you offer team headshots?
Yes. I photograph teams and staff groups at workplaces, conferences, or events. I can bring a mobile setup to your location or host smaller groups in my studio—whatever works best for you.

3. Do you shoot in a studio or on location?
Both. My studio setup is ideal for clean, professional looks, but I also enjoy shooting on location in Jacksonville and Ponte Vedra Beach. We can even combine both if it suits your brand.

4. How long will the session take?
Most sessions run about an hour, depending on what we’re shooting and how many looks you want. We’ll have time for a few outfit changes and a solid variety of images.

5. When will I get my photos?
We’ll choose your favourite shots right after the session, and final retouched images are typically delivered within 72 hours—often sooner. All editing is done in-house.
