Next Steps
As you think about what to wear, consider how you will use your headshots, and select an outfit accordingly.
For example, if we are photographing a headshot for your company directory, your outfit may require a more professional look than if we were photographing for a LinkedIn profile, which could have a more relaxed feel.
While photographing, I will guide you in posing and expression to capture your natural look and personality. We will review images to get your feedback, preferences and make sure we are capturing photos you will love to share.
Your photo session will be at Sunday Studios in Knoxville, not far from the downtown area. Directions will be sent after you complete booking.
Digital images will be delivered with a broad Image Use License. You will be able to use your new headshots for any type of personal, professional, or commercial use – on your website, in your marketing, in digital or print form, anywhere, forever.

Do you retouch your photos?
Yes, almost all photographs look better with a finishing touch. For headshots, I remove any small imperfections and make sure that the color looks amazing.
We can discuss further retouching such as taking care of facial lines or wrinkles, weight reduction and others treatments if you desire.
will you display my portrait or headshot on your website or anywhere else?

How long do you keep copies of all the photos taken during our session?
After final digital images are delivered to clients, all unused images are deleted.
Final digital images are archived and kept on backup drives. Unfortunately, I cannot guarantee that I will be able to recover images forever. I will remind you at image delivery to copy your images to your own local back up as well.
