Financial Advisor Headshots
Your clients are trusting you with more than their money. Before anyone books a meeting, they look you up — the firm bio, LinkedIn, the directory listing.
Credible, not distant
Confidence and approachability in the same frame.
A headshot that is all authority reads cold. One that is all warmth reads junior. The useful version sits between the two, and it is a matter of light and expression rather than luck.
You do not have to know how to pose. I build the lighting, set the angle and talk you through it, and you review the images with me as we shoot.
Headshots from the Irvine studio and from on-location days at firm offices.
More than one professional look
One session, several places to put it
Firm website
The formal register — tailored, controlled background. The one compliance will never query.
LinkedIn and social
A degree warmer, so the profile reads like a person rather than a directory entry.
Press and speaking
Clean background, room to crop, high resolution for print and event programs.
One session gives you several frames to choose from, not a single pose.
Firms and advisory teams
How a firm session works
A twenty-minute call
Headcount, location, timing. A written quote follows — nothing is assumed.
I come to your office
A full studio setup on site, about 10 to 20 minutes per person, so nobody loses a working morning.
Kept on file
Lighting, background and crop recorded, so advisors who join later keep a consistent look with the team.
Your expertise builds trust. Your image should reinforce it, not undercut it.

Common questions
Before you book
What should I wear?
Solid navy, charcoal or cream. Well-fitted, never oversized — layers instead of patterns, wrinkle-free. You get the full guide before your session.
Will my glasses glare?
No. Frames get angled a few degrees and the lights move off-axis. Your own glasses stay on.
How long does it take?
An hour and a half. Two to three looks, several backgrounds, and we choose together at the end.
Can you photograph the whole firm?
Yes — on site at your office or in the Irvine studio, in slots of about 10 to 20 minutes per person. Scoped on a call and quoted in writing.
