Most people I photograph are confident in conversation.
They’re good at what they do. People trust them. And yet the moment a camera appears, confidence vanishes.

Your headshot needs to evolve as you do.
Why It Matters
Because your audience connects with you before they connect with your business.
Your face builds familiarity. Familiarity builds trust. Trust drives action.

Eyes are powerful.
Make sure that your expression shows confidence,approachability, and warmth.
Keep your background simple; avoid clutter that distracts from your face - Your eyes are the hero here.
Natural light is great, but studio lighting gives you a polished look.

Four abstract figure drawings from this weekend.
I started by doing a watercolour abstract wash, and once dried I sketched the models.
