A headshot is a different job.

It depends on how many people sit in the chair and how long we are with you, so we quote it rather than publish it. Tell us the date, the city, how many people and what you are shooting, and you will have a real number within one business day. Every quote is all-inclusive: skin prep, airbrush and custom lashes are never charged as extras, and travel beyond the standard service area is quoted before you book.

Often, yes, and it is worth the five-minute ask. If your team is due headshots, or you are getting ready for a conference or a work event, we will send a one-page proposal you can forward to your manager or HR. On site in a conference room it costs less per person than most catering orders, and the person who asked becomes the person who found it. If the answer is no, you can still book the sitting yourself.

Yes. If you are the speaker, coach or author and you are paying for your own prep, portraits and press images, that is this page and it is the same booking as a branding day. If you are the organiser staffing a stage, a green room or a summit, that is our brand activations and conferences page, because it is priced by the day and by the number of people going through the chair.

No. A single-person branding day is one of the most common bookings we take, and it is often the highest-leverage money a founder or coach spends all year. You get hair and makeup built for camera rather than for a room, plus wardrobe and look changes planned so the images do not all look like the same five minutes.

Yes, and this is where an agency is genuinely different from a single freelancer. A boutique office, agency or small team runs through in a day with a proper rotation: one artist to every three or four people, a written schedule, and touch-ups between sitters so face twenty looks like face one. We have run 300-person corporate floors; a 15-person agency is a comfortable day.

Yes, and it is grooming rather than makeup. Skin prep and moisture, shine control for the lights, redness evened out, and concealment only where a lens would otherwise catch it. Nobody can tell, including him. It is a single service, quoted the same way as hair or makeup on its own, and it is the same preparation we run for executives on camera and for on-air talent.

Cameras read texture, shine and colour temperature very differently from the human eye. Skin prep, product density, powder placement and how the under-eye is handled all change. Event makeup photographed on a modern camera at close range usually reads heavy. That difference is what you are buying.

No. Airbrush is a tool, not a tier. There are silicone, water based and alcohol based systems, and the right one depends on the skin, the lighting and the length of the day; alcohol based is too dry for most faces and cracks where the skin naturally creases. We would never add a line to a producer's estimate because we reached for airbrush or lashes, so we do not add one to yours.

For an individual, three to five distinct looks in a full day is realistic once you factor in wardrobe and hair changes. For a team, plan on one polished look per person unless you are building a campaign. We map it out before you book so nobody discovers the constraint on the day.

We can. If you already have one, we work to their direction and their lighting. If you do not, we will refer someone we have actually worked with, or produce the whole shoot as a single scope: photographer, beauty, wardrobe support, shot list and location. Talent sourcing is covered by Florida Talent Agency License TA1765.

Regularly. Quarterly content days are how most brands keep their imagery current without one enormous shoot a year. If you expect more than a couple of days a year, the preferred rate contract is almost always the cheaper route.

Two to four weeks is comfortable for most branding and headshot days, and short-notice requests are often possible. Multi-day campaigns and large team days should be booked earlier. If your date is tight, call (888) 619-0628 rather than email.
