Here's exactly what you get at each price point.
Individual Headshot Pricing
Quick Headshot: $150
This is the no-fuss option. You come in, we shoot, you walk out with one polished, retouched image in about 10 minutes. It's perfect if you need to update your LinkedIn, add a photo to your company website, or finally replace that photo from 2015.
One image. Basic retouching. Done.
Essential Headshot: $500
This is the most popular session. It's a 30-minute studio session where we create a variety of looks so you actually have options. Different expressions, different angles, a wardrobe change if you want one. You walk away with multiple final images that feel confident, approachable, and like you.
This one is great for professionals who want their photo to show up everywhere and feel good every time it does.
Branding Lifestyle Headshots: $965
This goes beyond a traditional headshot. Instead of just a clean portrait, we capture you in motion, in your environment, doing what you do. These images work really well for websites, social media, and any marketing where you want to feel like a real person and not just a photo against a wall.
Team and Corporate Headshot Pricing
Small Team Session: $965
This is a 90-minute session for teams of up to 5 people. We can shoot in the studio or come to you. It's a good fit for small businesses, leadership teams, or offices that want updated headshots without organizing a full headshot day.
Team Headshot Day (up to 24 people): $150 per person
We bring a complete mobile studio to your office. Backdrop, professional lighting, everything. Each person comes in for about 10 minutes, gets coached through the session, and picks their favorites before they walk out. No guessing, no chasing people down afterward for approvals.
Every delivered image includes professional editing, multiple crop options, and organized file delivery by employee name. Your HR team will not have to sort through 300 numbered files.
Team Headshot Day (25 or more people): $75 per person
For larger organizations, the per-person price drops to $75 once you hit 25 people. The experience is the same. The process is the same. It just costs less per person when the group is bigger.
Custom quotes are available for any size team.
What Affects the Price?
A few things determine where you land on the pricing scale.
Number of images. A single polished image costs less than a session designed to give you multiple options. If you need one photo for a directory, the $150 quick session is plenty. If you want images you'll actually rotate across different platforms and use for years, the essential session makes more sense.
Studio or on-location. Individual sessions happen in the studio in Holton, about 30 miles north of Topeka. Team sessions can be in the studio or at your location. On-location team days don't cost more per person, but the quote will depend on your team size and any specific needs.
Team size. Bigger teams pay less per person. That's just how it works. If you're coordinating headshots for a large organization, reach out for a custom quote.
Is a Professional Headshot Worth It?
That depends on how often people see your face before they meet you in person.
If your LinkedIn profile, company website, email signature, or marketing materials have a photo of you, that photo is doing work every day. A blurry selfie or an outdated photo from a family event sends a message you probably don't mean to send. A professional headshot that looks current and confident sends a very different one.
Most people who book a session say they wish they had done it sooner.
