Frequently Asked Questions

My hours vary and are by appointment only, both in my studio and on location for team headshots or brand sessions.  The amount of time I spend on a shoot totally depends on the type of shoot.

I am located in the Cornelius-Lake Norman area of North Carolina, at 19925 Jetton Rd, Suite 201, Cornelius, NC 28031 (Next to Sherwin Williams)

Parking is in the lot behind the building, to the side closest to Sherwin Williams, then just walk over the grass patch to my door, located on the Jetton Rd side.

You can park behind the building to the side, as illustrated below:

I specialize in

• Headshots
• Personal Branding for small businesses

YES!  You can choose for someone to come to the studio for $199 for hair & makeup

I typically use a gray background because it is most flattering on all skin tones, however I also offer a white background, or can swap out the background with an office or outdoor look, as long as it matches the lighting style.

Wait time depends on the type of shoot. 

• Express headshot sessions can get images within 24 hours,
• Branding shoots will take longer, depending on how big of a shoot it is. 
• Executive Headshot Images can take anywhere from 24 hours to 48 hours for delivery, depending on the editing requested. 

I can take credit card, cash, cashapp or venmo and Apple Pay. 

If you cancel with at least 48 hours notice, I will refund your session fee, but after that, it's a loss of business for me because I cannot book other clients, but feel free to reschedule.  However, if you test positive for covid, we can hold off, then reschedule or cancel, depending on how you feel.  Crazy times we are in!

There is no refund on digital images once delivered.

Images may not be used unless paid for. 

Session fees may be refunded if canceled at least 24 hours before. No-shows prevents me from booking another paying client, resulting in a loss, so please show up for your appointment.

I know sometimes people go for a headshot, but end up with a portrait (meaning past head and shoulders).  My headshot is head and shoulders, cropped at the first button of a button down shirt, just below the collarbone area. I coach clients on facial expressions to get the look that works for your target market.  You want confident, with smiling eyes. I do shoot tethered, which means my camera is attached to my computer for immediate views of your headshots, so we can go through them as we shoot, then adjust anything if needed. You will leave here with a shot you love!  I will even do a pre-edit with you hear, so I know exactly what level of edit you would like. This is as custom as you can get as far as headshots go!

Yes I do! And details are right here:  REFERRAL REWARDS

What you wear can make all the difference in the world between an okay headshot and a phenomenal headshot!  I actually work with a few boutiques who created career sections in their stores to make it easy to shop for your headshot session!

But better yet, I have a Headshot Style Guide!
