Your Image Professional, Confident, Authentic
Most of my clients don't love being in front of a camera, and that's completely okay. I'll guide you through every step and create modern headshots and personal branding images you'll be glad to put in front of clients, recruiters, and casting directors, in a session that feels easier and more relaxed than you expected.
Headshots That Actually Look Like You
Your image makes a first impression before you say a word. Someone visits your website, scans your LinkedIn profile, or opens your speaking proposal, and your photo already shapes what they expect.
The images I make read as professional without looking stiff, approachable enough to invite a conversation, and strong enough to back up your authority. Every one is built to do real work for you, from your homepage to your next pitch.
I Don’t Love Being Photographed Either, So I Get It
I’ve photographed hundreds of headshot and personal branding clients, and the same worry shows up in almost every session: not looking like yourself. I don’t love being on the other side of the camera either, so I get it. That’s why every session is fully directed from start to finish, and why you review your images the same day. I guarantee you’ll see yourself in them. If you don’t, I’ll reshoot your session or refund it. Simple as that.
Guided Every Step Of The Way
No guessing and no awkward posing. I coach every expression and movement as we go, so you're never left wondering what to do with yourself.
Look Like Yourself, On Your Best Day
Your images are refined and polished while still looking authentic and recognizably you.
Built For Real People
Most of my clients aren't models. They're professionals, entrepreneurs, leaders, speakers, and people building something they're proud of.
A Relaxed Experience
Great photographs are the point. So is enjoying the time you spend getting them.
You Don't Need To Be Photogenic
Most of my clients share the same worry: feeling awkward in front of a camera and unconvinced that their photos ever look like them. Confident everywhere else in life, until a lens appears.
No one taught you how to pose, or what looks good to a camera. That is not your job. It's mine. My work is about helping you relax enough that your confidence shows up on its own. Perfect hair, losing weight first: none of it matters here. Just show up. I'll guide the rest.

What My Clients Say
Experience Is Beautiful
The women I photograph have built careers, raised families, started businesses, and led teams. That history is part of what makes your portrait worth looking at, and I want it visible rather than smoothed away.
These images celebrate where you are now, the confidence you've earned and the story behind it.
The lighting in my studio is built to catch you at your best, every angle, every time. I guarantee it.
Your experience deserves to be seen.
More Than A Headshot
Today's personal brands require more than a single image. Personal branding sessions create a versatile collection of photographs for websites, social media, speaking opportunities, press features, podcasts, and marketing campaigns.
Tell A Story
You need photographs that go beyond a smile and communicate your unique professional narrative.
Communicate Expertise
High-quality images instantly elevate your perceived value and reinforce your industry authority.
Build Trust
People hire people. Authentic imagery breaks down barriers before the first conversation.
The Real Person
Together, we'll create a library of images that allows your audience to connect with the person behind the work.
My Chicago Studio
My studio is set up so you can relax. There's room to change outfits, and get used to the space before we start shooting. Once we begin, the rest is on me. I'll tell you exactly how to stand, where to look, what to do with your hands. I’ve got this.
