HOW IT WORKS

A simple, supportive process from chat to photo delivery. I like to keep things straightforward around here. Whether you need a simple headshot or a total brand launch, here’s how photo shoots typically flow:

  • There are two services where you can get a quick quote now

    1. Headshots at your location at https://form.jotform.com/42367092991160

    2. Event photography at https://form.jotform.com/50967953255164

  • It’s your choice: We’ll hop on a quick call or exchange emails to get to know each other…or both! You tell me about your business, your goals, and what you’re looking for. I’ll walk you through how I can help.

  • After our chat, I’ll send over a custom proposal that lays out everything clearly. You’ll see the scope of work, timeline, deliverables, and pricing upfront.

  • In preparation for our headshot or portrait session, check out my extensive list of preparation tips here:

  • During our photo shoot, I will gently coach and guide you through natural poses and smiles. We review all images together during the shoot on my iPad to make sure you are happy with how things are going. My shoots are very relaxed and never rushed. We don’t end the shoot until you are satisfied with the images.

  • After the photo shoot, I will send you a link to a photo proofing gallery for your review. At your convenience, you will email me a list of your selected image/s. There are some exceptions: sometimes companies prefer for their employees to pick their chosen photo on site instead of through a proofing gallery.

  • Every portrait or headshot package includes retouching options. My retouching style is done with a very light hand to keep you looking like yourself.

  • After your photo selects are made from your lovely gallery of headshots or portraits, I lightly retouch your photos. I then will email you a link to download your retouched images to a desktop via a zip file.

What People Are Saying About Working With Me

“Tina was a dream to work with and I will recommend her to anyone that is looking to refresh their headshot. Right from the start we knew we were in good hands. She gave each individual wonderful direction and made us feel very comfortable getting our pictures taken (which not many enjoy, myself included). With a speedy turn around we had our Ballyhoo Hospitality website updated in no time. Thank you, Tina! We can't wait to work together again.”

— Director of Marketing & Community Partnerships, Ballyhoo Hospitality

“Tina has been taking the photos for our Partners and Principals, for our corporate website and their LinkedIn photos. She's professional, prompt, and friendly with our team. She's always delivered a great product, and even came on short notice when we had a Partner come into our office for a headshot. I can't say enough about Tina and the quality of her work. I would recommend her to everyone who needs a photographer.”

— Strategic Marketing, Heidrick & Struggles

“Tina is our go to headshot photographer in the area. When we have a new attorney start at the firm we reach out to her and she is always there to help. Even when we need a rush job! Thank you Tina!.”

— HR Coordinator, Tyson Mendes, LLP
