In studio portraiture and headshot work

A 1000 Square Feet of strobes, camera backs, lenses, filters, grip, and other lighting gear mark my conveniently located Williamsburg studio.

Super fast turn-around

I can do same-day, next-day, and potentially even same-hour (sans retouching, maybe). This being said, non-expedited services still experience a super fast turn-around of 2-3 business days.

Zero Hidden Fees

Price quotes and packages are transparent from the moment you inquire about them, to the moment you carry the finished product out the door (smiling wildly, most likely)5.

“Actors that come to me exerience a 30% increase in auditions and call-backs. ”

  • I love headshots, and when I first got into photography, for awhile told myself I was going to be one of those photographers that did headshots and nothing but. That aspect of things didn’t work out, because there’s frankly way too much cool stuff to do in this field, but I still nevertheless love headshots and view them as my roots.

  • I do many things in photography (I’m a fairly well known fashion photographer, for instance) other than take headshots, and for that reason I’m able to keep my prices as low as they are. I say with no exaggeration that quality to cost you will find no other photographer in New York that’s capable of producing what I will for you.

  • I’m extremely hands on, if need be, and am happy to direct and advise clients in every step of the process - from the first communication to the last retouch. All in all, the process is pretty straight forward and there isn’t much left to question, but after the shoot date I’ll go ahead and sort through the raw files and weed out the obvious discards. From there, I’ll go ahead and upload everything to a contact sheet, and you’ll be able to from that point select which ones you’d like retouched. Thereafter, you’ll get the final retouches delivered along with the full catalogue of images shot over the course of our session.

  • My entire studio is outfitted with Profoto lighting; and I have nine heads in all. I have three main cameras, being a Fuji GFX 100s, a Nikon D850, and a Nikon Z7. The Fuji GFX 100s is my go to for portraits (as it should be, being close to a five figure camera), though for speed and ergonomics I usually always default to the D850.

    Nevertheless, neither of the two nikons can really compete with the color space afforded by the medium format Fuji - as each RAW file is 200 megabytes alone, and made for serious commercial portraiture.

  • I posted an ad for ‘free headshots’ on craigslist, after a talent agency tried to scam me into buying…headshots of all things. Therafter I met a bunch of craigslist randos for a few months while I built a portfolio and figured things out.

  • Jeff Bezos comes to mind.

  • 3-5 business days is typically customary, though certain seasons may affect this number.
