What a session looks like

Start with the use

Tell me where the image will live and what it needs to say. A lawyer’s profile, a nurse’s team page, and a student’s first LinkedIn photo are different jobs.

Direction, not a performance

I will place you, check the light, and give you something to do with your hands. You do not need to know how to pose. We can make a few expressions and keep the ones that look like you.
