The human face is full of power and expression and can evoke a wide range of emotions through a photograph. The goal of a business headshot should be to reflect your personality and professionalism in light of your companies branding and business culture. Whether in the studio or on location, Jeff will work with each client to craft a portrait to meet these goals.

Sessions can generally be grouped into two styles... a single headshot session and a creative, or environmental, portrait session. The headshot is a basic head/shoulders business portrait and typically the deliverable will be a single retouched image. In contrast, the portrait session is geared toward the client who will need multiple poses, backgrounds, 3/4 and full length shots, and stylized environmental shots.

Sessions are available at the conveniently located studio at 129 S. Main St. Edinburg, or on location at your office or other predetermined site. For larger offices, day rates are available for location sessions and discounts will apply for multiple studio sessions scheduled consecutively.
Each headshot session includes one retouched image (one per person for groups) delivered on CD or posted for download. Portrait sessions will include (5) images. Additional image selections can also be purchased

This session is for clients who are in need of one pose. The shoot will take anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour and you'll see on average about 1 image per minute to select your new headshot from. Included in the session is a low and high resolution file on CD (or posted for download), online proofing for image selection, basic retouching of selected image, and licensing for nearly unlimited end usage (see below).
This is more in line with a traditional portrait session, allows for multiple clothing/background changes and is suited to those who need a variety of poses/looks for their new portraits. The session will last 1-1.5 hours, can be in studio and/or on location, and includes (5) retouched images on CD, online proofing, licensing. Travel/set-up fees may apply for location shoots.

The studio comes to you for minimal disruption to your staff. This is for large offices where you require similar shots for each staff member. (see the FAQ below for more details) Includes a low and high-res file for each person, online proofing, retouching, and licensing for multiple end uses (see below). Travel/set-up fees may apply for location shoots.

Are prints available? Yes, prints are available in sizes from wallets to 20x30 and can be made available for online orders through your proofing gallery.
How do location sessions work for large groups? The studio will essentially be brought to you and set up in a conference room or other suitable location. A representative within your company will schedule the staff at 20 minute consecutive intervals. Generally for groups, the images will all be shot in the same 'look' so each person may not take the entire alloted time, but it's best to allow the 20 minutes to work with the people who are uncomfortable in front a the camera. Opportunities are available to customize location sessions. For example, the upper manangers may want some environmental portraits taken in their manufacturing facility or board room in addition to the headshots.
Do you travel? Yes, I do travel for assignments. Travel fees will be discussed and negotiated during consultation. In general, travel fees will be applied to assignments outside the northern Shenandoah Valley.
Payments and deposits? A 50% deposit will hold your appointment and check or credit is preferred for deposits. For single studio sessions the balance is due on the day of the shoot and may be paid in cash, check or credit. Group sessions will be invoiced with 30 day terms. For short notice studio appointments a deposit may not be necessary.
What about cancellations? A two day notice is required for refund of deposit. Cancellations are sometimes unavoidable and in cases of last minute cancellations, your deposit will be valid for one year to reschedule the session.


These are generalized Do's/Don'ts and things to avoid. As with any art, sometimes rules need to be broken. All the details of your shoot will be discussed prior to the session.
