Professional Corporate Headshots in Chicago

Top Rated Chicago Headshot Photographer

15 years of experience

I offer a variety of professional corporate headshots services to suit the needs of your company. I can bring the studio to your location for the convenience of your staff, then return for new hires with the same background and lighting set-up to ensure a consistent brand. I can use a plain backdrop or use your office as an out-of-focus backdrop. Here are some of the professional headshot services that I can offer your business:

Headshot Services at Your Office

Option 1: Corporate Headshots On A Solid Backdrop

Corporate headshots are closely-cropped photos from the chest up. Corporate headshots can be taken at your office or in my Chicago studio. My most popular background options are light grey, dark grey, and white. More color options are available for studio shoots. Many clients book me to take headshots of their entire staff, board members, the top executives all on the same day, then come in only when there are new hires. I am also available to come into the office for just one person…the choice is yours. I can capture headshots according to your company’s specifications, or we can create something new together. Regardless, your headshots will be clean and standardized in order to give you a polished brand.

Option 2: Corporate Headshots With Your Office as the Backdrop

Environmental headshots are closely-cropped photos from the chest up with a blurred background behind you. Environmental headshots are more dynamic and place you in a location. These types of photos can better show your brand. Environmental headshots can only be taken at your location, as these are not green screen photoshopped backgrounds.. My specialty is environmental headshots, as I feel those give the most polished and high-end look for corporate branding. My creativity really shines when asked to incorporate a client’s workspace into their business headshot, and I strongly encourage clients to go this route.

What people are saying.

Recruitment Manager, Hanley, Flight, & Zimmerman

“Working with Tina Smothers on headshots for our firm was a very easy and delightful process. Tina maintained great communication while we were scheduling things on our side, remained flexible with last minute requests and adaptable - we asked her to bring her equipment to our workspace for the shoot and she didn't blink an eye- just asked "where are you located? I'll bring my stuff to you!" She made all of our employees feel comfortable during the shoot and it shows in the final product which was delivered quickly after the shoot took place. Once we gave her the photo choices the final versions were turned around super fast, making it easy to get them up on our website in no time at all. Highly recommended. Great demeanor, easy going, and delivers a quality photo that brings out the best in our team members.”
Operations Manager, Nixon Peabody LLP

We use Tina's services exclusively in our Chicago office and have been extremely pleased. She shoots professional headshots of our attorneys and is very accommodating with her schedule, even when some of the requests are with minimal notice. She always gives us options with the headshot proofs, and she is incredibly timely both with the initial proof and the turnaround should we desire any changes to the proofs which is next to never. We also appreciate that she invoices us promptly. I give her a 5+ star rating and am grateful for the professional relationship we have developed..
Director of Marketing & Community Partnerships, Ballyhoo Hospitality

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.

“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.”
Director of Marketing and Communications, Eshow

“I searched for days for photographer in the Chicago area that could do some onsite branding and headshots for our tech company. I also had a lofty vision for a very colorful color palette, which was difficult to begin with. Tina not only responded immediately, but she talked through all the moving parts of getting the schedule together for 40 people. She came onsite for two days and made every employee feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. I am beyond thrilled with the end results. I will be using all of these photos for company-wide branded materials, email signatures and beyond! Tina was amazing. Highly recommend her for your company headshots or branded photography!”
