I want your headshot experience to feel collaborative, relaxing, and easy.

So, how do we make that happen? I’ll coach you through the whole process: shoot location, wardrobe, expression, posing, body language, and more.

You’ll be able to see the shots as I take them, projected in real-time onto a big screen, so we can work together to get the look you’ve dreamed of!

As a working professional who enjoys a social life too, I know your time is important. That’s why most headshot sessions take about 45 minutes, meaning you’ll get images you love without slowing down your day.

Whether you’re looking for that dream role or match, these professional headshots are specially designed to work for you.

“The best part about working with Mike is the genuine connection and understanding to what the customer wants/needs in the photos.

Mike is also full of ideas as well as positions to get the best shot. He is open to real-time feedback and makes adjustments as needed to improve the overall customer experience.

If I were to recommend Mike to family or friends, I would say to go for it, because he is detailed, experienced, and dedicated. The quality he produces is commercial and high-end. You would have a great experience and also feel confident in your images.

Great job, Mike!”

The Session

I’m with you every step of the way as you strike your poses, and nail that vision. We’ll pay special attention to the goals of your headshots, who your audience is, and the final use of the images. You’ll see the results on screen as we shoot — a wonderful way for us to collaborate in real-time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Professional headshots in Atlanta start at $250, which includes the inquiry call, up to a 90-minute photo session, and an ordering appointment. Most clients typically spend about $650.

For corporate clients with teams, I’ll develop a custom quote specific to your needs.

I’ve created a series of blog posts to help — check out the summary page here.

Don’t worry, you’re not alone! Most people feel the same way. Know what else? It’s my job to make you feel FANTASTIC — guiding you through every pose (even what to do with your hands) to make sure it feels natural and totally comfortable. A lot of my free time is spent learning about human behavior and body language because I find it fascinating!

Are you light and bubbly? Then we won’t cross your arms. Are you a high-level executive who is super approachable and friendly? We’ll take pictures with the camera at eye level instead of looking up — a far more inviting pose. We’ll iron out all the details before so we know exactly what’s going to happen on the day. Remember, it’s my job to make the photos tell that story!

Yes, I do! I believe in photographing everyone in their best light (pun intended!). Everyone’s a little different: skin tone, body shape, personality, and more. Whatever the case, I promise to wholeheartedly listen to your concerns and shoot images that represent you. I’ve got a blog post where you can learn how I capture BIPOC portrait photography.

I’m a proud ally and supporter of the LGBTQ+ community and am happy to serve them. Full transparency: I don’t understand everything, and I definitely say the wrong thing occasionally. That said, I support this community 100% because we all deserve love, respect, and dignity.

The weather is fickle, there’s no denying that. Then again, if you live in Georgia, then you know that if you don’t like the weather, just wait another 30 minutes!

But what happens if we plan a session and the skies open up? We have two options — reschedule or try to wait it out. I purposefully do not put session dates in my contracts because of this exact reason.

Life and weather happen! I’m totally game to say, “Well it doesn’t look like today is gonna work. What’s your next available time?” Unless you want a rain-soaked session, we can always reschedule at no additional charge. I highly recommend checking out this blog post about what to do if it rains on your portrait session.

Life happens! I get it. That’s a reality, and I try to be as flexible as possible. So long as you let me know 8 or more days before the session, we can easily reschedule. If you let me know 7 or fewer days before the session, then there may be sunk costs including, but not limited to, studio or equipment rental fees. Additionally, sessions must be rescheduled within 6 months of the original session date. We’ll make it a conversation and figure out the best plan once you let me know you need to reschedule.

I get this question so often, so I wrote blog posts with tips on what to wear for your acting headshots and what to wear for corporate headshots. Clothing should communicate your personality and for businesses, match your brand aesthetic. I’ll work with you to figure out the best attire for your session and if you’re changing outfits, I can provide pointers to make it much easier — especially if we’re shooting on location!

Every image receives global editing, AKA overall exposure, contrast, color, etc., when you receive them as proofs. Once you have gotten your proof images, you’ll pick a selection, and then I’ll perform the detailed Photoshop edits on those images. After that, you’ll receive access to the final selection of images. You can also ask for tweaks and revisions to the edits — I want to ensure you’re thrilled with your images.

Very soon! I turn around proof images within about one week of your session. After that, detailed edits take about a week to complete every 10 images.

High-resolution digital image files will be available to download via your own private online gallery.

Yes — I have a very rigorous and robust backup strategy to hold onto your images long-term after your session and your ordering appointment. Click here link to learn more about how long I hold onto images and my overall photo backup strategy.

During your headshot session, I will connect my camera to my laptop to collaborate and review your images as we capture them. This lets you suggest tweaks to posing, expression, prop locations, lighting, etc., in real-time. I want you to know exactly what we captured before we wrap your session. Also, you can ask for three rounds of revisions and tweaks to your edited images in case I missed a detail or you would like something slightly different.

I have a blog post that walks through other common concerns and comments I get from clients that may help!

“Mike is a talented photographer that works to understand your unique needs and goals. He communicates clearly, and you always understand the process and next steps.

The session was easy and fun – being able to see the photos on a screen as we worked was incredibly helpful.

Overall, working with him was a breeze and the end result is phenomenal.”
