The Headshot Coordination Problem
You've been putting off team headshots for months. Not because nobody wants them — but because the logistics are a nightmare.
✕
Scheduling Hell
Coordinating 20+ calendars across departments. Someone always can't make it.
✕
Half-Day Gone
Travel + waiting + session = 2–3 hours per person. Multiply by your team size.
✕
The Mismatch
Hire 5 new people next quarter. Their headshots don't match. Team page looks like a collage.
✕
Repeat Every Year
The whole process starts over. Nobody wants to own it. The website stays outdated.
We built our on-site service to eliminate every one of these friction points.
One date. One setup. Your entire team — done.
Questions About On-Site Sessions
What kind of space do you need?+
A room with at least 8 feet of depth, a power outlet, and ideally 8+ foot ceilings. Conference room, private office, or lobby works well. Our lighting is entirely self-contained.
How many people can you photograph in a day?+
Single photographer: 20–30 in a half day, 40–50+ full day. For larger teams, we run dual stations in parallel — doubling capacity.
Will on-site photos look as good as studio?+
Yes — same strobe systems, modifiers, and backdrops as our San Mateo studio. Quality difference is functionally zero. We bring 2–3 backdrop options on-site.
What about people who are out that day?+
We hold your exact setup for 90 days. Anyone who misses can visit our San Mateo studio for a matching session. Also offer rolling quarterly on-site for fast-growing teams.
Can we get photos the same day?+
Lightly edited proofs same-day. Full retouching 5–7 business days. Rush 48hr available for website launches or press deadlines.
Do you handle scheduling for our team?+
We provide a scheduling template your coordinator distributes. Each person picks a 15-minute slot. We can manage scheduling directly if preferred.
