Keep the focus on your face.
Simple colors and subtle textures are easy to work with. Very small, high-contrast patterns and large logos can pull attention away from your expression. Bring clothes clean and pressed.
A little preparation.
A more comfortable session.
Individual headshots at Executive Portraits start at $400, with posing guidance and retouched photos delivered the same day. Here is what to budget, what to bring and where to find the studio.
Two studio sessions.
A clear starting point.
These are Alex’s individual studio packages in Midtown Manhattan. Both include guidance on posture and expression, plus natural retouching of your selected photographs.
| Included | Essential | Signature |
|---|---|---|
| Session price | $400 | $650 |
| Time in studio | 30 minutes | 60 minutes |
| Outfits | 1 | Up to 3 |
| Retouched photographs | 2 | 5 |
| Delivery | Same day | Same day |
Choose Essential for a focused update to your professional profile. Signature gives you time for more outfits and a wider selection of final portraits. Think about where the photographs will appear: a LinkedIn profile, a company biography, a speaking engagement or several of these.
A $100 deposit is applied to your session total. You request a preferred date and time of day; Alex confirms the exact date and time by email within one business day. Paying the deposit does not automatically reserve the requested time.
Team headshots are quoted around your headcount, location, schedule and deliverables, with delivery within 48 hours. Ask for a proposal instead of multiplying an individual studio package by the size of your team.
Start with how you
want to show up at work.
Choose an outfit that fits comfortably and feels appropriate for the people who will see your photograph. A company leadership page may call for a different look from a more relaxed professional profile.
Check the fit while sitting.
Try the outfit both standing and seated. Make sure collars, necklines and sleeves sit comfortably so you are not adjusting them throughout the session.
Plan your layers.
For Essential, choose one complete outfit. With Signature, bring up to three looks. A jacket over a simple top can give you a more formal option without making your preparation complicated.
Keep hair, makeup and accessories close to the way you normally present yourself professionally. If your employer has a required background or crop, send the specification before the shoot. You do not need to practice a pose: Alex will guide that in the studio.
