What to Expect at a Professional Headshot Session

You know you need a headshot.  You know you need high quality images for your website and social media.  You’ve heard it from a million places that you need great images for your marketing… 

I know thinking about accomplishing this can be overwhelming.  You already have so much on your plate and now you have to find a photographer.  You have to trust that this photographer will deliver what you want, you have to find the time to schedule and plan this and you already don’t have enough hours in the day…

I’ve talked to so many people who have had a bad experience having headshots done, which really makes me sad.  While a headshot sounds simple enough, there’s really a lot that goes into it, and having a professional photographer makes a world of difference, from the quality of work to the experience itself.
