Seattle’s Professional Headshot Photographer

Put your best face forward.

Professional portraits provide an employer, client, or potential partner with his or her first glimpse of you—so it goes without saying how important these photos can be. 

Designed for job seekers, relationship seekers, or those who simply need an updated portrait, your experience here includes a “discovery” conversation where we learn about your priorities for your photos so we can capture exactly the images you want. Our discussion prior to your photo session drives the key aspects of your shoot: the style (casual vs. formal) and the feel (professional/serious vs. friendly/approachable vs. light/playful.) Clients say our sessions are more like a “fun and easy conversation where photos happen!” The end result is stand-out photos that represents you at your very best.

Join us any Friday at our neighborhood photo studio in Madrona for our Headshot Portrait Day. If you need a custom personal branding session, get in touch with us here.

Personal Branding

Personal branding sessions include more time and collaboration with the photographer than a standard headshot session, as well as multiple background options and wardrobe changes. Your investment includes planning of your session, the session itself, a separate selection appointment, and a collection of six portraits for you to use for your personal or professional needs. Additional portraits may be added.

Testimonials

“Getting a headshot was a pleasant, efficient, and comfortable process thanks to Christina’s way with her subjects.”
— Tia H.
“Christina made getting updated headshots a GREAT experience! The studio vibe was the right balance of professional yet fun. She worked to understand who I am and what I wanted to convey through my photo. Who knew a LinkedIn image could be so flattering? I am really pleased with the results.”
— Sabrina S.
“I have had two fabulous experiences with Christina. Christina took great headshots that I use on LinkedIn and on my website. She also took wonderful, memorable photos of my fur-child, Lucky.”
— Laura P.
“I highly recommend Christina I had a session for a professional headshot, and it was so fun! Christina has a marvelous eye and feel for portrait photography. I felt very much at ease, and my headshots came out beautifully. I couldn’t be more pleased.”
— Elizabeth S.
“I reluctantly scheduled an appointment so that I could have a professional “headshot” taken. Those of you who are camera shy will understand my hesitation – the “discomfort” of having to smile (or not) at someone you do not know for a picture you will likely regret having sat for, etc. etc. etc. Surprisingly, my experience was nothing like I had imagined. Christina is both a gifted photographer – and such an engaging human being that you forget the camera is a part of the equation. The results of my photographic session include a set of wonderful pictures that capture the joy of making a new friend. Thank you, Christina!”
— Lynne R.
