Introduction
LET ME TAKE YOUR BEST HEADSHOT EVER! Stand out as an expert in your field Your headshot can be used for your social media, websites, company brochures, conferences, and email signatures. You’re a professional. Your image matters. Stand out from the crowd with a great headshot. Make a powerful first impression These days first impressions are usually made online. At some point somebody is going to Google you. It could be a headhunter, an HR Manager or a potential client. Take control of your first impression by having a great corporate headshot. Gain credibility and likeability A good headshot photo will make people more likely to trust and like you. People do business with people they like and trust. How do you want your clients and colleagues to view you… That cropped wedding photo, or that holiday snap on your LinkedIn profile needs to go! CONFIDENCE Your confidence is going to come from your eyes. You want to avoid that deer in the headlights look to drive home the fact that you’re an expert in your field. APPROACHABILITY Approachability is a combination of the body language and the smile. Not all smiles are created equal, therefore, if it looks fake, you can forget about looking approachable. PSYCHOLOGY What are you trying to convey with your headshot? Is your personal branding positioning you properly to get the work you’re looking for? After sharpening my skills and entering the professional environment, I began to find regular work within multiple genres of the craft—from events, to weddings, and family portraits. Loving the intimate connection that develops with portraiture, I focused my offering to specialize in making my clients look their absolute best and comfortable in front of the lens. Forging my reputation on providing professional headshots for the corporate, entrepreneurial, and general community; my goal is to make my clients look confident and approachable. In today’s socially-driven climate, business is heavily weighted on personal branding and visual connections. Because quality portraiture is more necessary than ever, I aim to provide as much value as possible to my clients with one-on-one tailored experiences. On location or in the studio, through light and direction I let my clients shine and cater to their unique needs making them as comfortable as possible. Primarily offering Headshots, Contemporary Portraiture, and Personal Branding Sessions, I’ll work with you to achieve your goals, helping you have a strong visual presence!

Overall 5 STARS Skilled photographer and great personality.PROFESSIONAL EQUIPMENT His studio has all the lights and equipment you could think of to make for a good headshot and even athletic/ full body photos. When I waked in I knew immediately, based off of how well-prepared the lights and camera were, that I made a good decision. He makes sure that your face has lighting from every angle by completely framing your face with professional lights to assure that there are no shadows.EFFECTIVE DIRECTING I have had headshots done by photographers that dont really tell you how to move the muscles on your face to look good. I LOVED that he told me exactly what I needed to do based on my face. (Ex: he told me that my left eye is more dominant, thus I need to squint more in that eye so that one eye doesnt look bigger than the other) That was just one example but he knew exactly how to make my facial expressions look good based on my facial attributes - Something that most headshot photographers dont bother to do and this made a WORLD of difference in how great my headshots turned out. I will use the techniques that he taught when posing for all my photos now :DGOOD TECHNIQUE He uses the technique of a famous headshot photographer Peter Hurley. You can tell that he has really studied the art of headshots and he's also been trained by his business partner, another well-respected photographer. Thus, he knows exactly the angels and poses that your face looks best in. He directs you with the most minute details of turning, positioning, and framing your face. Though the technique feels slightly unnatural when your posing, IT WORKS. He captures you in just the right moment to get the perfect shot.REASONABLE PRICING professional studio headshots can be crazy expensive. He is one of the best around town and yet he doesnt charge a fortune like others do. COMFORTABLE ENVIORNMENT The studio has a cool vibe to it as it doubles as a music studio. During your session he plays music and talks to you in a very friendly manner. He makes you feel not only comfortable but confident in how your posing.

Ryan Tiehen, first of all I met him at another location; one on one. After I our initial meeting and conversation I learned that he was and is a professional photographer and I a professional actor..But he also has that Professional actor look about him...Quiet as it is kept. It was at this time that he suggested/ asked me if I were interested in doing a shoot with him as he was and is adding to his actor headshots portfolio.Long story short we shot just this past weekend at his studio. And it was my first experience with a photographer whose lighting esp was quite excellent and not!,eye blinding.But as important is that Ryan is a really genuinely nice person. And as he put me through the paces- so to speak..he was able to elicit various emotional aspects from me that were spot on!! Also..Ryan shoots digitally and it was also the first time I was able to see some of the shots he had been shooting...Then and there..In conclusion,..It was money well spent..and I will be returning to Ryan for more shots because he is really good and he cares..Mark

Ryan T, is the best! He has done two sessions for us, one of which is one of the most important days of my life. Our wedding. Very easy to work with, a hard worker and caring. I'd definitely recommend him for your next special event.

Ryan was kind enough to give us a great rate for our 501 c 3 non-profit. " Huntington Harbour Philharmonic Grand Marshal Ball." He was very professional he took great pictures; we all loved his work and we purchased all the pictures! We are so thrilled with his work that we are privileged enough to have him photograph our ball again this year.I also needed some pictures for a property that I was selling. He was kind enough to send me his partner who did a very good job as well! Ryan is cultured, attentive and quick to adjust to any situation. We're happy to have him back for our 2018 "Grand Marshal Ball" at Seacliff Country Club.Doria C. Merical
