What is a headshot?
A headshot for your business is your calling card or the first line of how your brand presents itself to the viewer. It acts as a business card, promotional advertisement and much more. Having a professional headshot helps you to stand out as the viewer can see who you are. It gives the appearance that you are approachable, likable and most importantly, a professional.
Who is a headshot for?
A professional headshot can be applied to anyone in any field. Whether you are in medicine, finance, public speaking, life coaching, fashion, modeling or a creative field then you can definately use a professional photo for your website, social media or promotional materials.
Why do I need a headshot?
All businesses want to connect with potential clients and customers. As a business owner or brand, your headshot helps the viewer to connect with you. The confidence and intelligence that will be displayed in the photo will definitely resonate with the viewer, making them feel more assured in doing first time and repeat business with you. Its a great first impression.
How many images are included with plans?
Typically, sessions range in duration from 20 mins to 2 hours. This means that the number of frames captured can vary from 30 shots in the session to as many as 200 images. We download and inspect every image and deliver a proofing gallery to you that will only contain the best frames.
How long does retouching take?
Usually, 1 session can take anywhere from 7 - 14 days . This is because EVERY image is inspected, categorized, selected, grouped and the best frames are post processed with enhancements. This is a tedious process but at the end of it, you are presented with a QUALITY product that you WILL be happy to own
Do you provide prints with each plan?
No we do not. This is because our business is small and printing is an added expense. In order to make it affordable to the client, we prefer this responsibility to be your own. Because of our business model, this enables the client to have more freedom in making prints.
Do I own my images?
You are paying for the service and not the image rights. If you are using your images to promote your product or website, this is perfectly ok. If you were to try and sell your photograph without the creator’s consent, then this is wrong. As the photographer or creator, once the images are produced, the rights belong to the photographer. If you purchase the rights to the image, then you own the copyright. Most companies buy rights to the images for multiple applications without consent or credit of the photographer.
How are the images formatted?
We deliver all images to our clients in jpeg format which is standard and can be opened on any platform. We provide web and print sized images to clients. Web images can be uploaded to any online platform; social media or website without losing quality while print quality are higher in resolution and we recommend using this format to print on promotional materials only.
