Corporate Headshots Los Angeles

Corporate, business, and executive headshots for professionals, photographed in a controlled studio setting for a polished, modern result.



Most sessions take place in my Studio City location. The studio setup allows for a more precise result that holds up across company websites, press, LinkedIn, and professional profiles.

I’ve been photographing headshots professionally since 2005, working with actors, executives, business professionals, and companies. My focus is simple: strong expression, clean lighting, and images that feel current without being trendy. Sessions are well suited for executive headshots, LinkedIn profile photos, and professional headshots across a range of industries.


Executive & Business Headshot Sessions

Every session starts with what the photograph needs to say about the person in it. For a founder or consultant, that might be approachability and trust. For an executive, it's often authority and leadership, which can mean an editorial-style portrait that shows more of the person, such as a three-quarter-length image, or a traditional head-and-shoulders image on a solid background. Posture, framing, and how much of the person the photograph includes all follow from that purpose.


Who These Sessions Are For

• Executives and professionals updating their personal brand
• Individuals who want a clean, high-end LinkedIn or website image
• Founders, consultants, and independent professionals who represent their own business
• Authors and public-facing professionals who need images for publicity and press

Sessions are one-on-one and work especially well for professionals who value quality, clarity, and a smooth experience.


Where These Headshots Are Used

Images are delivered ready for use across LinkedIn, company websites, press features, internal communications, and marketing materials.

The look is clean and versatile, so the images integrate easily across platforms.

Many clients come to me because something new is happening: a book, a new role or appointment, publicity, or an announcement. I ask where the images will be used, and I also photograph a range of framings, from close to mid-length to three-quarter length, so you leave with options rather than a single image.

How a Business Headshot Session Works

Apart from the 30-minute Express session, I don't put a clock on sessions. Some people need more time to warm up, some need more direction, and the session runs as long as it needs to. Sessions are priced by the number of looks, and backgrounds are chosen once I know what the images are for and what you're wearing.

Many professionals are new to being photographed, and some genuinely dislike it. So do some actors, believe it or not. Either way, I read what each person needs and direct from there.

Business sessions tend to be more straightforward in what they need to show, but that doesn't mean static. You'll still be working throughout, and I direct just as much at one look as at several. Express sessions include direction too, in a simpler format.

Preparation is simple: get a good night's sleep, drink plenty of water, and bring a few wardrobe options.

Hair and makeup are available for every session. For business headshots I'll ask whether you'd like an artist if you're looking for a more polished finish, but it's your call and usually comes down to budget and how comfortable you are doing it yourself.


What to Wear for Corporate Headshots

Wardrobe starts with a conversation about your work, not your closet. Before a session, I ask about the nature of your business, the kind of clients you serve, how formal your field is, and how you want to come across when people see your photograph.

Your clients need to trust you, and what that looks like depends on your work. A therapist who works with difficult personal issues usually wants to come across very differently than an attorney whose clients are high-earning business people. In my experience, when the work deals with emotions or sensitive subjects, I tend to approach the images in a softer, warmer way, which can mean more color or upscale casual clothing. When the work centers on money or authority, a more formal, buttoned-up look often makes more sense.

Those are tendencies, not rules. I've photographed people in finance who wanted to come across as younger and more modern, which called for a very different wardrobe than their industry might suggest. That's why the conversation comes first.

Bring a few options. If you'd like help choosing, I'm happy to go through your wardrobe with you before the session.

Corporate Headshot FAQs

Do you photograph large teams?
Sessions are designed primarily for individuals. When photographing more than one person from the same company, lighting and framing are kept consistent so the images work together. Larger projects are handled on a case-by-case basis.

Do you offer on-location sessions?

Yes, for companies that need headshots created at their office. Most sessions take place in my studio, where the process is more streamlined and results are more controlled. On-location sessions are structured differently and require a minimum booking.

How many looks can I shoot?
You’re free to shoot as many looks as you’d like. Most people keep it simple with one or two. Sessions are structured by outfit, so additional looks can be added naturally if needed. The LinkedIn and Executive Express session includes one look.

How fast is turnaround?
Proofs are delivered the same day. Retouched images are completed within five business days after selection.

What should I wear?
We'll talk it through before your session, based on your work and how you want to come across. The What to Wear section above covers how I approach it.

How much do corporate headshots cost in Los Angeles?

The LinkedIn and Executive Express session is $295. Full studio sessions with no time limit start at $345. Package details are on the Rates page.

What is the difference between a corporate headshot and an actor headshot?

Corporate headshots are typically created for LinkedIn, company websites, press, and other professional uses, with an emphasis on a polished and professional presentation. Actor headshots are created specifically for casting and are approached differently in terms of expression, wardrobe, and the range of looks photographed.
