Frequent Questions
Should I do a Virtual Headshot or a regular, in-person headshot?
In general, you're always going to get a better result when you shoot in a dedicated headshot studio with a trained photographer who works with high-quality equipment. The live feedback and direction you'll receive, coupled with the ability to control everything in the studio environment – these aspects all work together to ensure you walk away with an extremely high-quality photo.
That said, if you're unable to make it in-person or simply need something professional and quick, a Virtual Headshot is the next best option.

Don't worry – our step by step process will show you quick fixes for the most common problems, including double chins, fake smiles, out-of-place hair, etc. Plus, in retouching we can whiten teeth, fix blemishes and under-eye circles, remove facial shine, and much more.

How long does it take?
The Virtual Headshot takes about 15-20 minutes and you'll be sent the images same-day.
Once you choose the photo you want us to retouch and finalize, that process typically takes 2-3 business days, but we can also do it same-day if necessary.

What backdrop should I pick?
Your photographer can make a recommendation based on the type of work you do or what you're using the headshot for. Certain industries work best with certain backdrops, or you might need to match a company image style, which would be certainly doable as well.
Can this package be scheduled for multiple employees at offices?
Absolutely. We work with companies around the country who need headshots for their employees, and they have individuals simply use our online booking system to schedule at their convenience.
