Begin with how you want to use the photographs

A creative profile or personal website can need more than a tight headshot. A relaxed seated portrait, a wider frame in a meaningful setting and a horizontal composition can show different aspects of you. Bring the layouts or editorial brief so we can choose useful crops and leave space where you need it.

We’ll use those priorities to build the shot list. Portraits, wardrobe and locations should feel connected while giving you enough variety for different placements. If you need only a new profile photograph, compare LinkedIn headshots before choosing a larger shoot.

Plan your lifestyle portraits

Decide what each setting contributes

A studio offers control over light and background. A workplace or another relevant LA location can add context. Choose settings because they feel relevant to you and give the photographs useful context.

Consider how you move through the setting, which outfits feel like you and how much surroundings should appear. A close portrait keeps attention on expression; a wider frame can include posture, clothing and place. Actor casting photographs have a separate brief; compare actor headshots if that is the main use.

Bring examples of the pages, publications or campaigns you are preparing. Note where you need a close portrait, a full or seated frame, a horizontal composition or space around the subject. The photographer can then plan a manageable sequence around your package’s time, locations and outfit changes.

Prepare a practical shot list

Start with the essential image you would regret missing. Add a small number of supporting ideas, such as a second expression, a different outfit, an environmental frame or a detail relevant to your work. Keep any props connected to what you actually do.

A planned list leaves room for useful variation during the session. It also makes selection easier: choose images by the jobs they need to do, rather than keeping many similar frames. The personal-branding guide explains how to connect the brief to a website or launch.

Lifestyle portrait questions

How is a brand shoot different from headshots?

A headshot session focuses on portraits. A brand shoot can include a wider range of compositions, locations and supporting images for several communication needs. Choose the format according to the images you will actually use.

Is hair and makeup included?

The current Essentials package lists a beauty team available by request. Signature and Editorial Production include a beauty team. Confirm the preparation arrangements and any Essentials add-on scope when planning your shoot.

Can we use more than one location?

The package cards list the available studio/location combinations. Share your proposed locations and priorities before confirming, so travel, access and the shooting sequence can be assessed within the agreed scope.

What rights are included?

The published brand packages include full commercial usage rights. Tell us about any unusual licensing or third-party requirements in the brief so they can be addressed before the shoot.

When should I mention a launch deadline?

Include it in your first inquiry. Confirm the selection process and delivery schedule with the studio before setting a launch date.

Tell us about the portraits you want

Share the creative profile, website or editorial use, the photographs you need and your preferred timing. We’ll confirm the package, LA locations and shoot details after your inquiry.

This is an inquiry, not a confirmed booking. Dates and session details are agreed afterward.
