Professional Headshots in Los Angeles & the South Bay

Confident, polished portraits for
professionals, creatives, and actors.

Your headshot is often the first impression you make — and it should show the best version of you. I create professional headshots across the South Bay and Los Angeles that feel natural, confident, and completely authentic. No stiff corporate poses. Just you, looking like yourself on your best day.

Your headshot is the first impression you make — make it count. I create headshots that feel natural, confident, and authentically you.

Why your Headshot Matters

Before anyone reads your bio, visits your website, or takes your call, they’re seeing your headshot.

That image sets the tone. It communicates confidence, professionalism, and approachability in seconds — or it doesn’t.

My job is to help you look polished and powerful without looking stiff or over-posed. Whether you’re auditioning, interviewing, pitching clients, or building your personal brand, your headshot should feel like you — just the most confident version.

THE PROCESS

01. Consultation & Planning

We’ll talk through your goals, how you plan to use your images, and what you want to communicate. I’ll guide you on wardrobe choices and help you plan everything so the session feels intentional and stress-free.

02. Fully Guided Posing & Expression Coaching

You don’t need to know what to do in front of the camera — that’s my job.

I’ll guide every expression, angle, and micro-adjustment so your images feel natural and confident. No awkward “say cheese” moments. Just authentic, professional portraits that look like you.

03. Multiple Looks & Backgrounds

We’ll shoot a variety of outfits and backgrounds so you have options for different platforms and uses — LinkedIn, your website, casting profiles, marketing materials, whatever you need.

04. Image Selection & Pro Retouching

You’ll review your images same-day or online. Retouching is natural and clean — designed to keep you looking like yourself, just polished. No heavy filters, no over-editing. You’ll still look like you when someone meets you in person.

Why work with me?

I’ve been photographing people for over 20 years and have worked with professionals across every industry — actors, entrepreneurs, real estate agents, executives, creatives, educators.

Whether you need actress headshots, corporate portraits, or a full personal branding session, I tailor the shoot to you and your goals.

You won’t get a cookie-cutter session. You’ll get personal attention, expert direction, and images that help you stand out in the best way.

Marcus, the results speak for themselves...you were not only professional and superbly talented, but you were fun to work with too!
