Urban • Studio • Workplace • Denver & Boulder
If you're looking for the perfect headshots, you've found the right person. Neither my business partner nor I are particularly comfortable in front of a camera. Jessica managed to capture a series of shots that captured our best selves. We bought 3x the number we'd planned! Best choice I've made on a vendor.

What to Wear for Professional Photos - A Photographer’s Guide
One of the most impactful elements of your headshot images - 100% wardrobe. I typically recommend choosing pieces that feel authentically you - confident, comfortable, and aligned with your image. Whether you're an entrepreneur, creative, executive, therapist, or small business owner, your wardrobe should support the story you're telling rather than distract from it.
Regardless of the approach, solid colors tend to photograph best, and I encourage clients to select tones that complement their natural features and align with their color season. While planning, I welcome you to send photos of what you're considering - happy to offer my expertise. I also suggest bringing a few options to your session. A blazer, sweater, dress, or layered look can create variety while still feeling cohesive.
Thrilled to join you in creating images that feel genuine, approachable, and unmistakably you.

Why I Don't Recommend AI Headshots
It’s time to stop using that terribly lit phone selfie or weird obvious AI rendering to represent your business, your livelihood and honor the work you put out into the world with a professional headshot and branding photo session that is true to you and your essence. More thoughts on why using AI to represent yourself is a mistake here.
Natural Retouching
I retouch your images in a way that honors your true presentation. I lean into accentuating your natural beauty and personality. My editing approach focuses on genuine appreciation of your best features while maintaining a natural and organic look. I avoid heavy retouching and excessive manipulation and of course here to accommodate your specific edit requests.
Why Authenticity Matters in Professional Headshots
Why authenticity still matters in the age of AI.
AI headshots have certainly come a long way and for some situations they may feel like an appealing shortcut. Quick, inexpensive and can produce polished-looking results with minimal effort.
The challenge is that people are remarkably good at sensing authenticity.
Applying for a job, building a personal brand, attracting new clients - the goal isn't to have a professional looking image. The goal is to create trust. Trust is built when the person someone meets online feels like the same person they meet in real life.
AI-generated headshots often create a version of someone that feels just slightly off. The smile is a little different. The eyes don't quite feel connected. Features may be subtly altered, clothing may not reflect your personal style, and the overall image can feel more like a digital interpretation than an authentic representation.
A professional headshot session offers something AI simply can't replicate: human connection. We'll choose wardrobe that reflects your personality, create expressions that feel natural and capture the nuances that make you uniquely you. The result is an image that not only looks professional but is also a genuine representation of your humanity and essence.
Your headshot is often the first introduction people have to you and your work. It should reflect the real person behind the business, the brand, the resume, or the profile. In a world increasingly filled with artificial imagery, authenticity has become one of the most valuable things you can offer. In a world increasingly filled with artificial imagery, authenticity isn't old-fashioned. It's a competitive advantage.
