Introduction
Headshots you’ll be proud of! I will guide you through the entire process, including posing. None of us really know what our face is doing until after we see it in a photograph or in a mirror. It’s my job to coach you for the best final images.

Cameron did an amazing job. We were very picky about what we wanted. He not only delivered perfectly but showed us some options we had not thought of.

Details: Solo portrait • Traditional / classic (looking directly at the camera) • Photo studio • Digital or online download • At the pro’s location

I had an awesome experience working with Cameron! He was very receptive to my ideas of our shoot, and he was kind enough to show me some of the pictures while shooting to make sure I was satisfied. He's a great communicator and fun to work with. Highly recommend.

Cameron was one of my photographers on my wedding day! My wedding was an outdoor wedding and an indoor reception. Great job adjusting to the different situations and locations. He showed up early enough to get photos before the wedding too! Cameron also did some amazing editing. The enhancements were great. I loved some of the different angles he got too. My only suggestion would be to kick the bride into fast forward. I was running late trying to get ready and time runs out so fast. He did a great job on capturing the moments though. Thanks Cameron and good luck in the future of photography!

FAQs

  • What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

    You decide the final price. When booking I take a deposit to book your session. On the day of shooting there is no time limit, unlimited outfit changes, unlimited looks. After shooting, we will look over the images together, and you decide what you want. Any images not chosen, are not saved. There is a session fee (the deposit) and a per image fee. This allows you to be in control of the total cost. No photo packages where you're locked in to a set price and set amount of images.

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    I’ve been doing photography in general since getting a fine art degree in this field. However headshots specifically started when I learned of Peter Hurley. The headshot master. I’ve learned from this man, studied under him, became a friend, and now an associate photographer of his.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Have a conversation. A portrait, and especially a headshot really comes down to the expression. It's the photographers job to get that. The technical side should be good, always. But the expression is what makes the difference. So chat with whoever you're interested in working with, and make a decision after that. Everyone has a budget, but keep this in mind: Is it worth paying 50% less for 50% less quality photos? Headshots represent you! How do you want companies and/or customers viewing you?
