DALLAS HEADSHOT PHOTOGRAPHER
Do you hate having your photo taken? Do you find yourself making excuses like, “I’m not photogenic,” or “I hate myself in pictures.” The journey to loving yourself is a scary one. I want to help you find that love of yourself, if you’ll allow me.
PROFESSIONAL BUSINESS HEADSHOTS
Just as it is important in your personal life, the way you represent yourself in your professional presence is vital. Having confidence in yourself and being able to convey trust to the people you would potentially be doing business with can make or break you. Projecting a positive self-image will allow you to show potential business connections that you are someone to trust.

TERRY RICKMAN
You are my number one priority when you step in front of my camera. I love working with people, and helping you to find self love and truly feel good about yourself has been central to my mission as a portrait photographer. I have heard too many people proclaim that they don’t like how they look and say that they are not photogenic. It breaks my heart when I hear someone put themselves down in this way. If I can help you see how amazing you are and fall in love with the person you see in the mirror, then I feel I have accomplished my purpose in life. I sincerely love what I do, and I do it for you.
HEADSHOTS FOR ZOOM
Have you found yourself sitting on a Zoom call and have need to momentarily turn your video off? Now people are left just looking at a black box where your face should be. Did you know that you can use your headshot as a profile image on your Zoom and other online video conferencing applications? Just because you have to turn off your video doesn’t mean you should hide away who you are. People are more prone to trust someone they are talking to when they can see the face of the person they are engaging with.
CORPORATE HEADSHOTS
A strong unified brand is the best way to establish your companies status as dependable, and dedicated to excellence. Whether it is for your internal company directory, listing your employees on the company website, or photos for employee badges, having professional corporate headshots of your staff will create a stronger more connected presence both internally and to the public.

Three key things that your headshot should do for you.
Make You Credible
Build rapport with those you do business with by showing that you understand the value of marketing yourself well. People are more likely to trust and do business with someone that uses a photo of themself on their profile vs leaving the profile image blank.
Give You Exposure
A professional headshot will elevate you above the crowd, and present you at your very best to those you do business with. Investing in your branding with a quality image will make you stand out from all the non-professional images.
Increase Your Approachability
People will be drawn to you, and want to work with you, if you come across as someone that is professional and personable. The last thing you want is to appear angry, melancholy, or void of emotion. Working with a photographer that is an expert in facial expression coaching will unlock this for you.

PERSONAL BRANDING
When someone thinks of your business is your face the one that comes to mind? Are you an author, public speaker, REALTOR, musician, actor, or even a photographer? If you are the face of your business then your branding should be a reflection of yourself. Your social media posts, your website, your marketing materials should have be uniquely tailored to reflect you. People want to work with people that they feel they know. If your branding doesn’t ever show people who you are, how can they ever feel that they know you? The best way to establish yourself in the eyes of your potential clients is to brand yourself as an expert and release content to your social media that shows you for who you are, you doing what it is you do. Allowing you to tell your story to anyone that could potentially need your services.
COMPANY HEADSHOTS
One of the best ways to make your company or brand stand out is to have a unified look. If you list your executive team on your company website they should all be photographed in the same manner. Nothing looks less professional than viewing a business’ about page and their executive team or board of directors images are a hodgepodge of assembled photos. This doesn’t show potential clients or donors that you have a solid cohesion in your company. It will make people ask, “If they don’t care enough to represent themselves in a uniform way, how do I know they will be able to deliver what I need? If they are willing to cut corners on branding themselves are they going to cut corners on supplying my needs?” Don’t risk losing valuable revenue because you opted for anything less than the best branding possible when representing your leadership on your website.
PROFESSIONAL HEADSHOT PHOTOGRAPHER
Would you hire someone to work on your broken plumbing just because they own a wrench? Would you hire someone to service your car because they know how to drive? No, you seek out and hire professionals to take care of these kind of things. While it’s cliche and tired, it is very much true that you get what you pay for. Sure your friend might take a decent photo of you. In most cases though, you are not going to be doing yourself a service. Even among photographers there are different fields of specializing. When you are hiring someone to take your headshot what you are really needing is someone that understands the art behind headshots. There are little minor details that take your image from alright to amazing. Someone that understands how to light a face, how to guide you to the perfect angle, how to get a natural expression from you are all things that add up to creating the best image you have ever had taken of you. So you can either go for price, or you can go for value. In pretty much any scenario, value will always net you a better final image than going with the cheapest in the market.
PROFESSIONAL CORPORATE HEADSHOT
My number one focus during the entire process from the first moment we talk about your needs to years after image delivery is what can I do to help you out. How can I solve your needs? If we are talking headshots or branding chances are you are needing to revamp your image, or possibly create it for the very first time. We will have an initial conversation so that I fully understand what you are needing the images for so that we can capture the best headshot and branded lifestyle photos of you and also tell the story that you are trying to convey. This is why I did away with arbitrary time constraints on headshot sessions. We will work until we have what you need. If we nail that in fifteen minutes or an hour and fifteen minutes we will take the time that you need to ensure that you leave with the best images you have ever seen of yourself. I want you to be at ease during your executive headshot experience because that is how we will capture you at your finest. We will review the clothing that you bring and I will help you to make decisions on what is going to be most flattering in terms of fit and color. Your clothes should be complementary to you, not the primary focus. We will do image reviews in real time during the shoot so that you can see the images that we are getting. I will coach you through the entire process to make sure that we are capturing you as the amazing person that you are. I have spent years studying the art of headshot photography under the leadership of Peter Hurley so that I can use all of that knowledge and expertise to give you the best experience possible when you step in front of my camera.
