Your Questions Answered

We recommend booking 2-4 weeks in advance, but it depends on the season:

Peak seasons (requires more advance booking):

• January (new year, new photos)
• September-October (fall conference season)
• March-April (spring launches)

Last-minute availability: We sometimes have same-week openings, especially Tuesday-Thursday

Content Refresh Members: Priority booking with just 48-hour notice

Rush sessions: Available for additional $200 with 24-48 hour notice (subject to availability)

We understand that business priorities shift. Our rescheduling policy is flexible:

More than 48 hours notice: Free rescheduling, no questions asked

24-48 hours notice: $100 rescheduling fee (to cover studio costs)

Less than 24 hours: 50% of session fee (we’ve likely turned away other clients)

Same day cancellation: Full session fee (no refund, but we’ll apply it to a future session)

Emergency situations: We’re reasonable. If you’re sick, have a family emergency, or other legitimate crisis, just call us and we’ll work something out.

Weather: For outdoor sessions, if weather is unsafe, we’ll reschedule at no charge.

Travel sessions are some of our favorites – there’s something special about creating photos in a meaningful location for your business!

Yes! You receive full commercial usage rights for all delivered photos. Use them for:

• Your website and social media
• Marketing materials and advertisements
• Business cards and brochures
• Speaking events and conferences
• Press releases and media kits
• LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, etc.

The only restriction: you can’t sell the photos themselves or use them to promote another photographer’s services.

You also can’t give them to competitors to use for their marketing (common sense, but we like to be clear!).

RAW files aren’t included in our standard packages, but they’re available for an additional $297 if you specifically need them.

Here’s why we don’t automatically include them:

• RAW files require special software to open and edit
• They’re unprocessed and won’t look as good as our edited versions
• Most clients never use them
• They’re massive files (25-50MB each)

The professionally edited JPEGs we deliver are the highest quality you’ll need for any business purpose. But if you have a specific need for RAW files, just let us know!

Your privacy and security are important to us:

Our storage:

• We keep all photos for 2 years minimum
• Stored on secure, backed-up servers
• Available for re-editing or reprints
• Never shared or used without permission

Absolutely! We include unlimited revisions on editing because we want you to love your photos.

Common revision requests:

• Adjust brightness or contrast

Just send us your feedback within 30 days and we’ll make the adjustments. Most revision requests are handled within 24 hours.

For major changes (like completely different backgrounds or extensive retouching), there may be an additional fee, but we’ll always discuss this with you first.

Yes, all delivered photos include professional retouching:

Depends on your package:

• Executive Essentials: 60 minutes
• CEO Content Kit: 90 minutes
• Brand Photography: 2+ hours

We never rush. If we need an extra 15-20 minutes to get the perfect shot, we take it. Your session time includes outfit changes, different backgrounds, and plenty of options.

Most clients are surprised how quickly the time goes. Once you get comfortable, it’s actually fun!

After booking, you’ll receive our comprehensive Style Guide, but here are the basics:

• Colors: Solid colors work best. Navy, black, gray, white, deep jewel tones
• Avoid: Busy patterns, thin stripes, all-white or all-black outfits
• Fit: Well-tailored, professional, but not stuffy
• Accessories: Minimal jewelry, avoid distracting pieces

Styling guidance is included in all our packages – you’re never guessing what works.

Absolutely – that’s half of what makes us different. You’ll never be standing there wondering what to do.

We direct everything:

• Where to position your hands
• How to angle your body
• Where to look and how to smile naturally
• How to shift your weight for the most flattering pose
• Breathing techniques to look relaxed

Think of it like having a personal trainer, but for looking great in photos. By the end, you’ll know exactly how to pose for any future photo situation

This has literally never been a problem in 500+ sessions, but we understand the concern. Here’s our process:

• During the session: We show you images on the camera so you can see how great you look
• Multiple angles: We shoot from different positions to find your most flattering side
• Plenty of options: We take 200+ photos to give you 30+ perfect ones
• Professional editing: Color correction, lighting adjustment, minor retouching

If you’re genuinely not satisfied with your session, we’ll reshoot at no additional charge. Your satisfaction is guaranteed.

Of course! Many clients bring a trusted friend, spouse, or business partner for moral support. Sometimes a familiar face helps you relax and smile more naturally.

Just let us know in advance so we can plan accordingly. Your guest is welcome to:

• Help you choose between outfits
• Give feedback during the session
• Help you feel more comfortable
• Take behind-the-scenes photos for your social media

We just ask that they’re supportive and positive – negative energy shows up in photos!

Great question. Here’s what you’re actually paying for:

• Expertise: 8+ years specializing in entrepreneur photography
• Equipment: $25K+ in professional cameras, lenses, and lighting
• Time: 2-3 hours of shooting + 3-4 hours of editing per session
• Business overhead: Insurance, permits, studio rental, software licenses
• Results: Photos that help you close more deals and charge higher rates

CEO Content Kit ($1,497): Our most popular package. 90-minute session, 3 outfit changes, 30+ edited photos. Perfect for entrepreneurs who need a complete content library.

Executive Essentials ($497): Great for simple headshot updates. 60 minutes, 2 outfits, 15 edited photos.

Brand Photography ($1,897): Lifestyle and branded content for websites and marketing. 2+ hours, multiple locations, 50+ photos.

Content Refresh Membership ($999/month): Monthly sessions for entrepreneurs who need constant fresh content.

Not sure which is right for you? Schedule a quick consultation call and we’ll recommend the best fit.

Yes! We offer a 50/50 payment plan:

• 50% due at booking to secure your session
• 50% due on the day of your session

For Content Refresh Membership, payment is monthly and you can cancel anytime with 30 days notice.

We accept all major credit cards, business checks, and can send invoices for corporate bookings.

If you regularly post on social media, update your website, or do any marketing, absolutely yes. Here’s the math:

• One-time CEO Content Kit: $1,497 (lasts 6-12 months)
• Membership: $999/month for unlimited fresh content
• Break-even: If you book 2+ sessions per year, membership saves money

But the real value is never running out of fresh, professional content. Your competitors are recycling the same old photos while you’re always showing up with something new.

You’re ready if you’ve been in business for at least a year and you’re charging premium prices (or want to). If you’re cringing at your current photos or avoiding updating your LinkedIn because you don’t have good images, that’s your sign.

Three things set us apart:

• Entrepreneur Focus: We’ve photographed 500+ entrepreneurs. We understand your unique needs and how you need to present yourself.
• Speed: 48-hour delivery vs. the industry standard of 2-4 weeks.
• Direction: We coach you through every shot. You’re never left wondering what to do with your hands or how to stand.

Most photographers treat everyone the same. We specialize in making entrepreneurs look confident, approachable, and authoritative without the corporate stiffness.

Here’s the truth: 90% of our clients think they’re “not photogenic” when they first come to us. The problem isn’t you – it’s that no one has ever properly directed you in front of a camera.

We’ve never had a client who couldn’t take great photos. Never. The secret is:

• Professional lighting that flatters everyone
• Expert direction for posing and expression
• Shooting multiple angles to find your best side
• Taking enough shots that you have options

By the end of your session, you’ll understand exactly how to look your best in photos.

Being nervous is completely normal – about 80% of our clients feel the same way initially. Here’s how we handle it:

• We start slow: First 15 minutes are just conversation and easy warm-up shots
• Constant direction: You’re never guessing what to do next
• Show you images: We’ll show you shots during the session so you can see how great you look
• Professional environment: No judgment, just professional guidance

By minute 20, most clients are laughing and having fun. We’ve done this thousands of times – trust the process.
