ESSENCE

Self-Study in Studio

book now

Let's go deeper than your standard sit-and-smile headshot session. This new, evolving experience blends journaling, guided visualization, and movement to draw out and capture your true essence.


  • 90-minute indoor session, up to three backdrop colors and multiple looks allowed.
  • A pre-shoot color/styling consult with me is included; hair and makeup are not. Please arrive photo-ready and bring touch-up tools.
  • Within two weeks, I’ll share a digital folder of at least 100 edited selects. You can download all of these in hi-res and you may choose 2 for retouching.
  • Additional selects can be retouched for $25/photo.*


Sliding Scale Pricing

For artists who are just starting out, professional headshots can be a barrier to entry, and I commit to keeping that accessible. I'm also happy to chat about payment plans (without extra fees, because that's dumb) and occasionally offer Pay-What-You-Wish Mini Sessions.

*Retouching Policy

My take on headshot and portrait retouching has shifted over the years. While I absolutely want you to feel like your best self is being represented—especially for auditions and other forms of marketing—I will not adapt body size or shape in post-production. When I retouch, I do my best to remove distractions like stray hairs, skin redness or shine, blemishes, shadows, and stains or lint on clothing. I will also color-correct skin, hair, and teeth to a natural, balanced tone. I’ll likely send you a few variations of the image during the process to make sure we’re on the same page and I’m always happy to chat about the delightful strangeness of inhabiting a body!
