About FAQ and TIPS - Headshots Toronto
Your Headshot needs to represent your Brand. Your Brand is who you are, who you want to be, and who people perceive you to be. Your professional headshot needs to take the following into consideration:
- Wardrobe selection(s)
- Expression – amount of smile or not?
- Posing – standing, angle/leaning or perhaps sitting?
- Photo crop or aspect ratio – square for LinkedIn or wide for website? Have a specific requirement?
- The background – photographer provided in studio or digitally composited?
I will assist with all of the above.

Do you have your own studio and where is it located?
My studio is located at the Artscape building in The Distillery District – Front Street East / Lakeshore Road and Parliament Street downtown Toronto).

We are in a very rustic brick and wood beam environment with many restaurants should you care to chill after the shoot.

What are your Rates and Prices?
A detailed breakdown of my rates and pricing is provided at my Rates and Pricing page.
I price my sessions based on a Look. A Look is a setup for the session and includes a wardrobe change, background change or lighting. A retouched photo is provided for each Look. Although my rate is obviously not the lowest in Toronto, I try to offer the best value. Please read on to see what I mean by Value.
How long is a LinkedIn or Branding Headshot Session and how many shots do I get?
I do not count time or shots. I take as many as we need and you are free to have them all. The time depends on you, if you have a killer smile with great clothes and posture your session is a few shots in as minutes. As we shoot your photos are reviewed on a 27 inch monitor. You never leave wondering whether we got the shot.
Generally, a Professional Headshot session is approximately a half hour to an hour for One Look and approximately 1.5 to 2 hour for multiple Looks.
If you have specific requirements let me know and I will work with you to achieve your goals.
What is Retouching?
Please check out my Retouching Page to see what is possible. Retouching for perfect model faces is pretty easy, but retouching everyday faces in the more mature age range requires experience to make you look your best naturally.
Is makeup and hairstyling available?
Yes, but limited by what the government allows for during the pandemic. Contact me for the latest.
What is your delivery time and format for my Headshots?
Typically, next day for proofs online via Google Drive and 3 days or less for the retouch from time of order. Same day available on request.
What should I wear? What should I bring?
Difficult to provide you with specific recommendations, but here is some guidance. Generally, darker shades shoot better. A jacket or blazer provides your shoulders with structure to support your head. Busy patterns distract from you, but can also give you a unique style. For headshots, bottoms do not usually matter unless you specifically want a 3/4 shot. However, the more body you include in your photo, the smaller your face and ability to show personality as a headshot. If you are not sure, the best advice is to bring extra to change. We can test your wardrobe to see what works best for you. I can shoot ties on and off as well as glasses on and off at no extra charge.
What background options are available?
For each selected photo for editing, the background can include the original light to medium grey, all white background and/or transparent background in PNG format. I also have many options for environmental backgrounds, such as an office environment, window views of Bay Street and many more. The crop of the photo and resolution is your choice, best to consult your web guy.
What precautions are you taking for COVID-19
A mask will be worn by us all time, except during the actual shoot – for you. My mask will be a disposable medical type that is Rated ASTM level 3 and/or KN 95. Extra disposable masks are available complimentary. I will spray the shoot area with Vital Oxide using a commercial fogger between each session. Vital Oxide is a hospital grade disinfectant that is rated as food safe. Two windows are open during the shoot. A high velocity fan is used to provide fresh air with a good flow rate for air circulation. And, of course, careful distancing at all times.
