Doctor Headshots That Build Patient Trust

It depends on the tone you're going for. White coats read as clinical and authoritative — great for surgeons, specialists, and hospital directory pages. For private practice or patient-facing roles where warmth matters more, a blazer or professional top often works better. We shoot both so you have options.

Yes. We do on-site sessions for medical groups, dental practices, and hospital departments across the Bay Area. We bring our lighting and backdrop, set up in a conference room or empty office, and cycle through providers efficiently — typically 10–15 minutes per person. Minimal disruption to your patient schedule.

Light gray and white are the most common for healthcare. They're clean, neutral, and work on every website and directory. Some providers prefer a soft blue — it reads as calm and clinical. We offer all three in studio, and we match your practice's existing website style if you prefer.

Individual sessions start at $249, which covers studio time, posing direction, multiple backgrounds, same-day proofing, and retouched final images. Group rates are available for practices with 5+ providers — the per-person cost drops significantly with volume.

We deliver high-resolution files that exceed the requirements of every major medical directory and patient portal. We can also provide specific crop sizes if your hospital IT department or EMR system has particular format needs — just let us know during booking.

If your patients wouldn't recognize you from your photo, it's time. An outdated headshot erodes trust — patients expect to see the person who actually walks into the exam room. Most physicians should update every 3–5 years, or sooner if your appearance has changed.
