HEADSHOTS

WHAT IS YOUR HEADSHOT SAYING ABOUT YOU?

In just a moment, potential clients form an impression—long before they read a word about you. Your headshot is often your first introduction, and powerful photography communicates confidence, professionalism, and authenticity instantly. A strong, thoughtfully crafted headshot doesn’t just “look good”—it builds trust, strengthens your brand, and can make a lasting impact on the opportunities that come your way.

At Douglas James Studio, we specialize in professional headshots and personal branding photography that elevate your presence across websites, social media, marketing materials, and portfolios. Whether you're a musician looking for a bold album cover, a model updating your portfolio, an entrepreneur crafting a strong personal brand, or a CEO refining your online image, we create portraits that are clean, confident, and memorable.

Every session begins with a personalized consultation to understand your goals, industry, and visual style. We then design a custom photo experience—selecting the right lighting, posing, and expressions—to capture images that align perfectly with your brand. The result is a collection of impactful, high-quality photographs that help you stand out and make a powerful first impression.

It is advisable to keep your Headshot up-to-date by refreshing it regularly. Many of our clients, especially those in the corporate sector, schedule annual corporate portrait sessions with us to update their marketing materials. These portraits can be used for various publications, ensuring that their professional image is always current and relevant.

Apart from understanding your requirements prior to your photo session, there are certain factors that you should keep in mind while preparing for your shoot:

  • Choose clothing that does not overshadow your portrait. Avoid wearing outfits with large patterns, unless they are intended to be a part of the shot.

  • Women should carry makeup essentials, such as powder, lipstick, comb, hairspray, etc. for quick touch-ups. We can also recommend professional makeup artists if needed.

  • If you wear glasses, bring a glass cleaner along. If you plan on wearing sunglasses for some of the shots, ensure they are scratch-free.

  • Accessorize your outfit with appropriate accessories for a polished appearance.

  • Both men and women should moisturize their skin before the photography session to soften any fine lines.

Our studio features the latest in photographic technology so that we can provide you with high-quality images.
I can also shoot your photo session on location and I’ll bring the same high-quality equipment I use in the studio. Your images are guaranteed to project the professional image you desire. Final images can also be digitally enhanced according to your needs.

Headshot sessions can last up to two hours in length. We generally shoot a handful of different looks for you during the session. Shooting a range of looks allows us to get a variety of shots for your use for whatever marketing purposes you choose.

All images purchased include a digital copy. Your viewing session will be scheduled one week after your session.

Products and prints may be purchased when you come in, but there is no obligation; you purchase only the ones you love!
